- What is this firm debt equity ratio? General accountingarrow_forwardhow much long-term debt did the firm have? general accountingarrow_forwardAssume that 5% of the L.L. Bean boots are returned by customers for various reasons. L. Bean has a 100% refund policy for returns, no matter what the reason. What would the journal entry be to accrue L.L. Bean's sales returns for this one pair of boots? (Note: L.L. Bean most likely will make monthly/quarterly adjusting entries for the total sales returns accruals, but here we will just look at the accrual associated with the sale of one pair of boots.)arrow_forward
- Nonearrow_forwardFor the current year ended March 31, Cosgrove Company expects fixed costs of $579,000, a unit variable cost of $68, and a unit selling price of $89. a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units). b. Compute the sales (units) required to realize an operating income of $134,000. (Round your answer to nearest units)arrow_forwardL.L. Bean operates two factories that produce its popular Bean boots (also known as "duck boots") in its home state of Maine. Since L.L. Bean prides itself on manufacturing its boots in Maine and not outsourcing, backorders for its boots can be high. In 2014, L.L. Bean sold about 450,000 pairs of the boots. At one point during 2014, it had a backorder level of about 100,000 pairs of boots. L.L. Bean can manufacture about 2,200 pairs of its duck boots each day with its factories running 24/7. In 2015, L.L. Bean expects to sell more than 500,000 pairs of its duck boots. As of late November 2015, the backorder quantity for Bean Boots was estimated to be about 50,000 pairs.arrow_forward
