Gertrude Fromm is a transportation sector analyst at Tucana Investments. She is conducting an analysis of Omikroon, N.V., a (hypothetical) European engineering company that manufactures and sells scooters and commercial trucks.
Fromm uses the base case forecast for 2020 shown in Exhibit 1 to perform the following sensitivity analysis:
The price of an imported specialty metal used for engine parts increases by 20%.
This metal constitutes 4% of Omikroon’s cost of sales.
Omikroon will not be able to pass on the higher metal expense to its customers.
Fromm’s sensitivity analysis will result in a decrease in the 2020 base
case gross profit margin closest to:
选项:
A.0.55 percentage points. B.0.80 percentage points. C.3.32 percentage points.解释:
A is correct. The sensitivity analysis consists of an increase of 20% in the price of an input that constitutes 4% of cost of sales. Change in gross profit margin be cause of that increase is calculated as the change in cost of sales because of price increase divided by sales:
= (Cost of sales × 0.04 × 0.2)/Sales
= (105.38 × 0.04 × 0.2)/152.38
= 0.0055
请问为什么COGS被提升的部分 =105.38*4%*20% = 0.843040?不太理解原理
