Answer 1

The accounting profit of a firm can be calculated by subtracting the total expenses from the sales revenue. In this case, the firm's sales revenue was $1 million, and the expenses were $600,000 for labor, $150,000 for capital, and $200,000 for materials. Therefore, the accounting profit is $50,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The accounting profit of a firm can be calculated by subtracting the total expenses from the sales revenue. In this case, the firm's sales revenue was $1 million, and the expenses were $600,000 for labor, $150,000 for capital, and $200,000 for materials. Therefore, the accounting profit can be calculated as follows:

Accounting profit = Sales revenue - (Labor expenses + Capital expenses + Materials expenses)

Accounting profit = $1,000,000 - ($600,000 + $150,000 + $200,000) = $50,000

Answer 2

We need to find net long-term debt added during the year.

Answer: The net long-term debt added during the year is $91,000.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

We calculate Operating Cash flow first.

Sales 2395000

less COGS -1430000

less S&A 435500

less Depreciation 490500

EBIT 39,000

Since Interest expense is greater than EBIT, Taxable income becomes negative.

The question directs us to ignore losses, so taxable income and therefore taxes are 0.

Now, we can calculate Operating Cash Flow or OCF

`OCF= 529500 (39000 - 0 + 490500)`

We calculate cash flow from assets next

`Cash Flow_(assets)= OCF - net capital spending - net investment in working capital`

Since net capital spending and net investment in working capital is zero,

`Cash Flow_(assets) = OCF`

`Cash Flow_(assets)= 529500`

Next we look at the cash flow entity which is:

`Cash Flow_(assets) = Net cash flows to shareholders + Net cash flows to debt holders`

Since no new equity was issued, net cash flows to share holders is the total amount of dividends paid.

So,

`529500 = 405000 + Net cash flow to debt holders`

`124500 = Net cash flow to debt holders`

Now,

`Net cash flow to debt holders = Interest paid - Net new debt </strong></p><p><strong>added`

`124500= 215500- Net new debt added`

`Net new debt added = 91000`
