Contribution Margin = Revenue – Variable Costs
Average Cost per Unit = Total Cost / Number of Units
Magnitude of
= Contribution Margin
Operating Leverage
Net Income
Break even volume in units= Fixed Cost / CM per unit ЩЦ ~Contribution Margin Ratio= CM / Sales ЩЦ ~Break Even Point= Fixed Cost / CM Ratio or Selling Price/Units*# Units Sold = [(VC/Unit*# Unit Sold) + Fixed Cost] ЩЦ ~To find how many units must be sold: Fixed Cost + Target Profit/ CM ЩЦ ~Profit= CM ÐÐC FC ЩЦ ~Margin of Safety= (Budgeted Sales ÐÐC Break Even Sales)/ Budgeted Sales
Profit (Net Income) = Sales ÐÐC Variable Costs ÐÐC Fixed Costs
Operating Leverage = CM / NI
Contribution Margin = Sales ÐÐC Variable Costs
Gross Margin = Sales ÐÐC COGS
Contribution Margin Ratio = CM / Sales
*Ratio represents portion of Sales to cover Fixed Costs*
High/Low Method = (High Cost ÐÐC Low Cost) / (High Units ÐÐC Low Units) = VC per unit
Margin of Safety = (Budgeted Sales ÐÐC Break Even Sales) / Budgeted Sales
Break Even = FC / CM
Net Income = Sales ÐÐC COGS ÐÐC All other Expenses
Purchases = Sales + EI ÐÐC Beginning Inventory
Horizontal Analysis ÐÐC study of the behavior of individual financial statement items over several accounting periods.
Vertical Analysis ÐÐC uses percentages to compare individual components of financial statements to a key statement figure.
*Balance Sheet – % of total assets* **Income Stmt – % of total sales**
Ratio Analysis ÐÐC involves studying various relationships between different items reported in a set of financial stmts
Liquidity Ratios: Working Capital, Current Ratio, Quick Ratio, Accounts Receivable Ratio, Inventory Ratio,
Solvency Ratios: Debt to assets ratio; Debt to equity ratio; Number of times interest earned ratio; Plant assets to long-term liabilities
Profitability Ratios: Net margin, Asset turnover, Return on Investment, Return on Equity
Stock Market Ratios: Earnings per share, Book value per share, Price-earnings ratio, Dividend yield
Current Assets = Cash, Accounts Receivable, Marketable Securities, Inventory
Unadjusted rate of return= cash inflow/(cost of inv/2)
Current Liabilities = Payables due w/in the next 12 months
Payback period= (cost of inv/annual cash inflow)
Quick Assets = Cash, Accounts Receivable, Marketable Securities
Internal rate of return(IRR)= (cost of inv/annual cash inflows); look up PV value on table
Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
Net PV= PV of future cash flows ÐÐC cost of inv.
Return on inv(roi)=OI/sales(margin) x sales/OA(turnover); OI/OA; OA * ROI=OI
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Return on Equity = Net Income / Ave. Total StockholderÐÐŽÐЇs Equity
Quick Ratio = Quick Assets / Current Liabilities
Debt to Equity Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Equity
Inventory Turnover = COGS / Ave. Inventory
Residual income=oi-(oa * desired roi)
PV of future cash flows= cash inflow * PV factor
Increase in sales: ROI * investment=OI => (OI=sales increase amt * sales)
PV w/ taxes = 1. revenue ÐÐC depr= taxable income 2. taxable income * tax rate =taxes 3. taxable income ÐÐC taxes = net income 4. NI + depr = cash inflows 5. Cash inflows * PV factor= ? 6. ? ÐÐC cost of asset
Selling price per unit: 1. OI=ROI * OA 2. OI=(Sales Volume (n)) ÐÐC fixed ÐÐC variable
Cost of units transferred out: 1.Transfer units *100% 2. ending inv * %completed 3. Add 1. and 2. 4. all other costs/ 3 answer= cost per unit 5. cpu * 2
The process product costing system distributes costs evenly across total production
T-charts: Cash, Raw Mat. WIP, Manufacturing OH, Common Stock, Revenue, COGS, SG&A
Depreciation on Manufacturing equip is added to Manufacturing OH.
Return on Investment (ROI) = Margin (OI / Sales) * Turnover (Sales / OA)
Residual Income = [OI ÐÐC (OA * Desired ROI)]
PV of Future Cash Flows = Cash inflow * PV factor
Net Present Value = PV of future cash flows ÐÐC cost of investment
Internal Rate of Return = cost of the investment / annual cash inflow = PV value **Look up PV value
