The term economies of scale refers to the fact that as the:
o physical size of the product gets larger, the costs of production become lower
O quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit increases
o quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit remains constant
quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases
Need!​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases

Explanation:

Economies of scale happens when the average total cost (variable + fixed production costs per unit) decreases as total output increases. This generally takes place because fixed costs are the same for a small number of units produced or a large number of units produced, so the average fixed cost per unit tend to decrease as more units are produced (at least up to certain point). Variable production costs per unit can also decrease as total output increases since materials might be purchased in larger quantities resulting in higher discounts or labor productivity increases.

Three firms are currently producing and selling in a market. When one of the three firms exits the market, economists expect that the equilibrium price will ________ and the equilibrium quantity will ________.

Answers

Answer: higher; lower

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that three firms are currently producing and selling in a market. When one of the three firms exits the market, economists expect that there will be a rise in the equilibrium price while there will be a reduction in the equilibrium quantity.

This is because when one producer leaves, there will be less supply of the good that is sold, this will eventually lead to a rise in price.

Oriole Company purchased equipment for $41600. Sales tax on the purchase was $2496. Other costs incurred were freight charges of $624, repairs of $364 for damage during installation, and installation costs of $696. What is the cost of the equipment

Answers

Answer:

The cost of the equipment is $45,416.

Explanation:

The cost of a newly purchased equipment is the addition of all relevant costs uncured in order to make the equipment ready for use.

The cost of the equipment includes costs such as purchase price, tax paid on the purchase, installation costs, etc.

However, any cost incurred to repair any damage to an equipment during installation is not part of equipment cost. Such repair costs are just ordinary expenses that are charged to the income statement during the period.

Based on the explanation above, the cost of the equipment by Oriole Company can be calculated as follows:

Equipment cost = Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges + Installation costs ..................... (1)

Since,

Purchase price = $41,600

Sales tax on the purchase = $2.496.

Freight charges = $624

Installation costs = $696.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Equipment cost = $41,600 + $2,496 + $624 + $696 = $45,416

Therefore, the cost of the equipment is $45,416.

Treasury bonds paying an 8% coupon rate with semiannual payments currently sell at par value. What coupon rate would they have to pay in order to sell at par if they paid their coupons annually? (Hint: What is the effective annual yield on the bond?)

Answers

Answer:

8.16%

Explanation:

current yield = bond's value x (1 + semiannual interest rate)ⁿ

in this case:

bond's value = $1,000 (we choose the value)semiannual interest rate = 8% / 2 = 4%n = 2 semiannual coupons

current yield = $1,000 x (1 + 4%)² = $1,000 x 1.0816 = $1,081.60

in order for a bond that pays an annual coupon to be sold at the same value, it must yield the same return = ($1,081.60 - $1,000) / $1,000 = 8.16%

B. a credit to FICA-OASDI Taxes Payable for $830.80
C. a debit to FICA-Medicare Taxes Payable for $830.80
D. a debit to Salaries Payable to employees for $830.80

Answers

Answer:

B. a credit to FICA-OASDI Taxes Payable for $830.80

Explanation:

Free Star, Inc. In February 2019.

Angie's gross pay was $6000,

Ferro's gross pay was $7400

Total gross pay $ 13400

FICA-OASDI Tax  6.296 %

$ 13400 * 6.2% = $ 830.80

The recording of the journal entry would require a debit to FICA tax and credit to FICA tax payable .

The FICa tax is 6.2 % which equals to $ 830.80 of the two gross pays.

All the other three options are incorrect.

Explanation:

Murray Motor Company wants you to calculate its cost of common stock. During the next 12 months, the company expects to pay dividends (D1) of $3.00 per share, and the current price of its common stock is $60 per share. The expected growth rate is 8 percent.
a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Cost of retained earnings___%
b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Cost of new common stock ____%

Answers

Answer:

a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke)

$60 = $3 / (Ke - 8%)

Ke - 8% = $3 / $60 = 5%

Ke = 13%

b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn).

$60 (1 - $5/$60) = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

$55 = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

Kn - 8% = $3 / $55 = 5.45%

Kn = 13.45%

Flotation costs reduce the amount of money that the company receives for every new stock that it issues, therefore, it increases the cost of new stocks.

At the beginning of the year, Custom Mfg. established its predetermined overhead rate by using the following cost predictions: overhead costs, $840,000, and direct materials costs, $400,000. At year-end, the company’s records show that actual overhead costs for the year are $1,041,000. Actual direct materials cost had been assigned to jobs as follows.Jobs completed and sold $390,000 Jobs in finished goods inventory 83,000 Jobs in work in process inventory 55,000 Total actual direct materials cost $528,000Required:a. Determine the predetermined overhead rate.b. Write the overhead costs incurred and the amounts applied to jobs during the year using the predetermined overhead rate and determine whether overhead is overapplied or underapplied.c. Prepare the adjusting entry to allocate any over- or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold.

Answers

Answer:

a. Determine the predetermined overhead rate.

the predetermined overhead rate = total budgeted overheard costs / total budgeted direct materials used = $840,000 / $400,000 = 2.1 = 210%

b. Write the overhead costs incurred and the amounts applied to jobs during the year using the predetermined overhead rate and determine whether overhead is overapplied or underapplied.

applied overhead costs = actual direct materials x overhead rate = $528,000 x 210% = $1,108,800

over applied overhead = actual overhead - standard overhead = $1,041,000 - $1,108,800 = -$67,800 favorable variance

c. Prepare the adjusting entry to allocate any over- or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold.

The manager of Synergy Company's Stock Division projects the following for next year: Sales $195,000 Operating income 70,000 Operating assets 385,000 The manager can invest in an additional project that would require $50,000 investment in additional assets and would generate $9,000 of additional income. The company's minimum rate of return is 15%. What is the residual income for the Stock Division with the additional project

Answers

Answer:

13,750

Explanation:

Residual income can be calculated by deducting required return from the  Net Operating income

DATA

Operating income = 70,000

Operating assets = 385000

Additional income = 9000

Additional investment = 50,000

Residual income =?

Solution

Residual income = Net Operating income - Required return

Residual income = (70,000+9,000) - ((385,000+50,000)x15%)

Residual income = 79,000 - 65250

Residual income = 13,750

The Fime Corporation uses a standard costing system. The following data have been assembled for December: Actual direct labor-hours worked 6,200 hours Standard direct labor rate $7 per hour Labor efficiency variance $2,100 Unfavorable The standard hours allowed for December’s production is:

Answers

Answer:

5,900= standard quantity

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual direct labor-hours worked 6,200 hours

Standard direct labor rate $7 per hour

Labor efficiency variance $2,100 Unfavorable

To calculate the standard hour, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

-2,100 = (standard quantity - 6,200)*7

-2,100= 7standard quantity  - 43,400

41,300/7 = standard quantity

5,900= standard quantity

Answer:

The standard hour allowed for December production is 5,900 hours

Explanation:

We will use labor efficiency variance to solve the above.

Labor efficiency variance = Standard rate (Standard hours - Actual hours)

Substituting the values given in the question,

-$2,100 = $7(Standard hour - 6,200)

-$2,100 = 7std hr - 43,400

7 Std hr = - $2,100 + $43,400

7 std hr = $41,300

std hr = 5,900 hours

Pauley Company needs to determine a markup for a new product. Pauley expects to sell 15,000 units and wants a target profit of $22 per unit. Additional information is as follows:

Variable product cost per unit $19
Variable administrative cost per unit 11
Total fixed overhead 13,500
Total fixed administrative 21,000

Using the variable cost method, what markup percentage to variable cost should be used?

Answers

Answer:

81%

Explanation:

Calculation for the markup percentage to variable cost that should be used

Using this formula

Markup percentage=[(Target profit + Fixed overhead costs + Fixed administrative costs) / Total variable costs

Let plug in the formula

Markup percentage=[($22*15,000 units)+$13,500+$21,000]/$30×15,000)

Markup percentage=($330,000+$13,500+$21,000)/$450,000

Markup percentage=$364,500/$450,000

Markup percentage=0.81*100

Markup percentage=81%

Calculation for Total variable costs

Variable product cost per unit $19

Variable administrative cost per unit $11

Total variable costs =$30

Therefore the markup percentage to variable cost that should be used will be 81%

D. debit Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment for $66, 000 and credit Equipment for $66, 000

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

To calculate the gain or loss on disposal of the equipment, we first need to determine the book value of the equipment on the date of sale.

Net Book Value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

Net Book value = 72000 - 66000   = $6000

The gain/(loss) on disposal = Sales Proceeds - Net Book value

The gain/(loss) on disposal = 10000 - 6000 = $4000 Gain

The entry to record this transaction will be,

Joe-Bob wants to buy a car and will need to take out a loan in order to make the purchase. His current monthly income is $3,500 per month. His mortgage payment is $900 per month, and his student loan payment is $350 per month. Note: You do not need to take taxes into consideration for this journal.

a. According to the affordability formulas given, can he afford to take out another loan?
b. When should he follow the affordability formulas?
c. In what cases should he not?
d. How could taking out the car loan impact his other priorities?

Answers

Answer:

A) according to the affordability formula Joe-Bob can take out another loan because his DTI is 36%

B) He should follow the affordability formula when he wants to take out  loans

C) He should not follow DTI if he isn't taking out loans  

D) Taking out a loan will negatively impact his other priorities if his DTI is very high or greater than 100%

Explanation:

using the affordability formula

The debt to income ratio = [tex]\frac{total debt}{gross income}[/tex]

total debt = mortgage payment + loan repayment = $900 + $350

= $1250

gross income = $3500

hence debt to income ratio =  1250 / 3500 = 0.3571 = 35.7%

A) according to the affordability formula Joe-Bob can take out another loan because his DTI is 36%

B) He should follow the affordability formula when he wants to take out  loans

C) He should not follow DTI if he isn't taking out loans  

D) Taking out a loan will negatively impact his other priorities if his DTI is very high or greater than 100%

a. According to the affordability formulas, Joe-Bob cannot afford to take out a car loan.  His current DTI without the auto loan is almost 36%.

b. Joe-Bob should follow the affordability formulas to guide his decisions in taking a new loan.

c. Joe-Bob does not need to follow the affordability formulas when his debt to income ratio (DTI) is far below 36%.  He can also avoid the affordability formulas when he has the prospect of increasing his monthly income.

d. If Joe-Bob takes out the car loan despite his poor rating on the affordability formulas, he may not afford to pay his bills for necessities.

Thus, Joe-Bob should not take on more loans now until he improves his income.  An automobile will require routine maintenance and some repairs, including fuelling.

Data and Calculations:

Current monthly income = $3,500

Monthly mortgage payment = $900

Monthly student loan payment = $350

Total current debts = $1,250 ($900 + $350)

The Affordability Formula (Current Debt Payment to Income Ratio) =

35.7% ($1,250/$3,500 x 100)

The Affordability Rule states that Joe-Bob should not spend more than 36% of his monthly income repaying loans.

In material requirement planning calculations, gross requirements for finished products are taken from ________________________.

Answers

Answer:

Forecasted sales

Explanation:

In the production process amount of inventory purchased for producing goods must be carefully calculated.

This avoids waste incurred from buying excess of materials needed for operation. Also when there is shortage of materials time and resources are wasted getting more materials.

So when calculating material requirements for finished products it is important that we consider sales forecasts.

Materials purchased based on this will just adequately meet the demand for product.

This reduce cost of storage of excess materials.

Widgeon Co. manufactures three products: Bales, Tales, and Wales. The selling prices are $55, $78, and $32, respectively. The variable costs for each product are $20, $50, and $15, respectively. Each product must go through the same processing in a machine that is limited to 2,000 hours per month. Bales take 5 hours to process; Tales, 7 hours; and Wales 1 hour. Assuming that Widgeon Co. can sell all of the products it can make, what is the maximum contribution margin it can earn per month

Therefore, Widgeon Co. will earn maximum contribution only if it uses all its machine hours for production of wales

Maximum contribution margin = Contribution margin per hour * Number of machine hours

Maximum contribution margin = 17 * 2,000 hours

Maximum contribution margin = $3,400

Assuming that Widgeon Co. can sell all of the products it can make, the maximum contribution margin it can earn per month is $3,400. The difference between the sales price and the variable cost is the contribution margin.

A contribution margin calculates a product's profitability during production. The contribution margin of a business indicates how much income is left over after variable expenditures like raw materials and transportation are subtracted.

A product must have a higher leftover income after variable costs than the business' fixed expenses, such as salaries and insurance, in order to be profitable.

A proposed cost-saving device has an installed cost of $790,000. The device will be used in a five-year project but is classified as three-year MACRS property for tax purposes. The required initial net working capital investment is $77,000, the tax rate is 21 percent, and the project discount rate is 10 percent. The device has an estimated Year 5 salvage value of $118,000. What level of pretax cost savings do we require for this project to be profitable?

Answers

Answer:

The pretax cost savings for project to be profitable will be more than $2,059,794 for the 5 years of life.

Explanation:

Installed cost = $790,000

Initial working capital = $77,000

Tax rate = 21%

Project discount rate = 10%

Estimated salvage value = $118,000

Depreciable amount :

Installed cost  $790,000

Salvage value     118,000

Net                  $672,000

Annual depreciation = $134,400 ($672,000/5)

Working capital        =   $77,000

Pretax cost savings =  $211,400 x 1.61051 x 1.21

= $2,059,794
