In the language c using the isspace() function: Write a program to count the number of words, lines, and characters when user enter statements as input. A word is any sequence of non-white-space characters.

Have the program continue until end-of-file. Make sure that your program works for the case of several white space characters in a row. The character count should also include white space characters.

Example of the user input could be the statement below:

             You're traveling through

​               another dimension;

              a dimension not only

              of sight and sound,

               but of mind.

Sales mix, multiple product breakeven, business risk, quality of information Keener produces
two products: regular boomerangs and premium boomerangs. Last month 1,200 units of regular and 2,400 units of premium were produced and sold. Average prices and costs per unit for the month are displayed here.
REGULAR PREMIUM

SELLING PRICE $22.15 $45.30

VARIABLE COSTS $4.31 $6.91

PRODUCT LINE FIXED COST $8.17 $24.92

CORPORATE FIXED COST $5.62 $5.62

OPERATING PROFIT $4.05 $7.85

A. Assuming the sales mix remains constant, how many units of premium will be sold each time a unit of regular is sold?
B. What are the total fixed product line costs for each product?

C. What are the total corporate fixed costs?

D. What is the overall corporate breakeven in total revenue and for each product, assuming thesales mix is the same as last month’s?

E.  What is the breakeven in revenues for regular boomerangs, ignoring corporate fixed costs?

F. Why is the breakeven for regular boomerangs different when we calculate the individual product breakeven versus the combined product breakeven?

Horizontal Analysis of the Income Statement

Income statement data for Boone Company for two recent years ended December 31, are as follows:

    Current Year     Previous Year
Sales $486,400 $380,000
Cost of goods sold 415,800 330,000
Gross profit $70,600 $50,000
Selling expenses $21,240 $18,000
Administrative expenses 18,900 15,000
Total operating expenses $40,140 $33,000
Income before income tax $30,460 $17,000
Income tax expenses 12,200 6,800
Net income $18,260 $10,200

a. Prepare a comparative income statement with horizontal analysis, indicating the increase (decrease) for the current year when compared with the previous year. If required, round to one decimal place.

Boone Company
Comparative Income Statement
For the Years Ended December 31
Current year Amount Previous year Amount Increase (Decrease) Amount Increase (Decrease) Percent
Sales $486,400 $380,000 $ %
Cost of goods sold 415,800 330,000 %
Gross profit $70,600 $50,000 $ %
Selling expenses 21,240 18,000 %
Administrative expenses 18,900 15,000 %
Total operating expenses $40,140 $33,000 $ %
Income before income tax $30,460 $17,000 $ %
Income tax expense 12,200 6,800 %
Net income $18,260 $10,200 $ %

b. The net income for Boone Company increased by 79% between years. This increase was the combined result of an   in sales of 28% and   percentage   in cost of goods sold. The cost of goods sold increased at a   rate than the increase in sales, thus causing the percentage increase in gross profit to be   than the percentage increase in sales.

  • 1. How does this revenue mix compare with the revenue blend of the not-for-profit entity, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (ALSAC)? Access the latest SEC filing and compare the reported revenue mix; has it changed?
  • 2. What does that imply as to the strategies of investor-owned hospitals in managing risk and ensuring adequate capital relative to not-for-profit entities? An opportunity exists to explore the greater social and political questions that are frequently debated about the compatibility of profit-oriented entities and quality of health care, relative to not-for-profit entities. As background, identify what the latest SEC filings report concerning charity care.
