Answer:
Nathan's contention is wrong.
Explanation:
Storage of money at home involves the opportunity cost of losing out on income that would've been generated had the same money been invested elsewhere or deposited with a bank.
Secondly, money stored at home is vulnerable to theft and other forms of risks.
Thirdly, stored money at home does not contribute to any economic benefit since such money is out of circular flow of money in the economy. So it yields no return.
Thus, Nathan's contention of stored money at home being costless is wrong.
Answer:
$80 per unit
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Per unit selling cost of the product = $150
Per unit variable cost of the product = $70
Total fixed cost per month = $1200
Now,
The unit contribution margin is calculated as:
unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Thus,
unit contribution margin = $150 - $70
or
unit contribution margin = $80 per unit
Hence,
The correct answer is option $80 per unit
Answer:
Unitary cost= $62.5
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. At the beginning of the year, manufacturing overhead and direct labor-hours for the year were estimated at $50,000 and 20,000 hours.
Materials costs on the job totaled $4,000 and labor costs totaled $1,500 at $5 per hour.
First, we need to determine the allocated MOH:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 50000/20000= $2.5 per direct labor hour
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base= 2.5* (1500/5)= $750
Total cost= 4000 + 1500 + 750= $6,250
Unitary cost= 6250/100= $62.5
Answer:
The amount Lava should charge against income during year 4 is $63,000.
Explanation:
Since amortization is assumed to be recorded at the end of each year, this can be calculated as follows:
Annual amortization expense = Cost of the patent / Patent's estimated useful life = $90,000 / 10 = $9,000
Amortization expense recorded prior to year 4 = Annual amortization expense * 3 years = $9,000 * 3 = $27,000
Unamortized cost of patent charge against income during year 4 = Cost of the patent - Amortization expense recorded prior to year 4 = $90,000 - $27,000 = $63,000
Therefore, the amount Lava should charge against income during year 4 is $63,000.
