Answer #1

Firm R

Sales : (Q )101,000 units at (P) $ 1.97 per units

Variable Cost (V) = $ 1.68 per unit

Fixed operating cost(F)= =$ 6,010

Interest (I)= $ 10,080

Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL)= [Q(P-V)] / [Q(P-V) - F) =  1.2581

Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL)= [Q(P-V)-F ] / [ Q(P-V)-F-I ] = 1.7636

Degree of Total Leverage (DTL) = DFL * DOL = 2.22

Firm W

Sales : (Q )101,000 units at (P) $ 2.59 per units

Variable Cost (V) = $0.98 per unit

Fixed operating cost(F)= =$ 62,600

Interest (I)= $ 17,400

Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL)= [Q(P-V)] / [Q(P-V) - F) =  1.3145

Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL)= [Q(P-V)-F ] / [ Q(P-V)-F-I ] = 1.0958

Degree of Total Leverage (DTL) = DFL * DOL =1.44

Operating Risk is high for firm W (1.31>1.25) - DOL

Financial Risk is high for firm R (1.76 > 1.09) - DFL

Overall risk for Firm R > Firm W (DTL)
