Answer:
b) taking advantage of scale economies to produce at low average cost.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Predetermined overhead rate
= Total fixed overhead cost for the year / Budgeted standard direct labor hour
Predetermined overhead rate = $530,400 / 68,000
Predetermined overhead rate
= $7.8 per direct labor hour
2. i. Fixed overhead budget variance
= Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead
= $521,000 - $530,400
= $9,400 favourable
ii Fixed overhead volume variance
= Budgeter fixed overhead - Fixed overhead applied to work in process
= $530,400 - (66,000 × $7.8)
= $530,000 - $514,800
= $15,200 unfavorable
Answer:
b. $5m
Explanation:
If we purchase another company for $50m and the company you purchase has assets with a fair value of $75m and liabilities with a fair value of $30m. The amount of goodwill we should record in this transaction is: $5m
Goodwill upon acquisition of companies is derived by subtracting the fair value of NET ASSETS from the TOTAL CONSIDERATION (i.e the price paid to acquire the company)
In the scenario, the value of Net Assets is the value of the fairvalue of the assets less the fair value of the liabilities which is $75 - $30 = $45
While the Total Consideration = $50
Therefore Goodwill = $50m - $45m = $5m
