Answer:

Exclusivity of the goods and services

Explanation:

The private market suffers as a result of the underprovision of the public goods. When this situation takes place, there is a tendency for the private market to try to develop ways to make the goods excludable. The phenomenon results in an additional problem such as the free rider problem. This is a case where an investment has  a personal cost that is raised. The provision of public goods works when individuals value the benefits of and costs to others in making their consumption choices.

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price per product = $30

Purchase cost per product = $20

Total sales dollars for next year = $720,000

Month Sales Revenue

May         $30,000

June          42,000

July            51,000

August     54,000

July 1:

Cash balance = $20,000

Merchandise inventory $18,000

Accounts receivable (sales) 23,000

Accounts payable (purchases) 12,000

Ending inventory = $27,000 ($54,000 * 50%)

Ending inventory = 50% of next month's budgeted sales

Selling and administrative expenses (excluding bad debts) for the year = $180,000

exis [7]

Ke is the cost of equity of 13.2%

Kd is the cost of debt of 8.7%

Kp is the cost of preferred stock of 9.9%

E is the market value of equity raised of $880,000

WACC=(13.2%*880,000/1708,000)+(8.7%*750,000/1708,000*(1-0.25))+(9.9%*78,000/1708000)=10.12%

Azule Co. manufactures in two sequential processes, cutting and binding. The two departments report the information below for a
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the ending balance in the work in process inventory for each department is shown below:

For Cutting department

= Direct material + conversion + cost added for direct material + cost added for conversion - transferred in from cutting department

= $1,095 + $3,650 + $13,740 + $18,300 - $17,395

= $19,390

And, for binding department

= Transferred in from cutting department Direct material + conversion + cost added for direct material + cost added for conversion - transferred to finished goods

= $1,200 + $2,862 + $3,800 + $9,332 + $19,475 - $31,000

= $5,669

Virty [35]

Answer:

1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,400 helmets?

3,400 helmets x 064 kgs per helmet = 2,176 kgs

2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,400 helmets?

2,176 kgs x $7 per kg = $15,232

3. What is the materials spending variance?

$15,484 - $15,232 = $252 unfavorable (because total expenditures on materials were higher than budgeted)

4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance?

materials price variance = [($15,484/2,346) - $7] x 2,346 = -$938 favorable (the purchase price per kg was lower than budgeted)

materials quantity variance = (2,346 - 2,176) x $7 = $1,190 unfavorable
