Marianna [84]

Trescott company had the following results of operations for the past year:

Sales (20,000 units at $22) $440,000

Direct materials and direct labor $200,000

Overhead (40% variable) 100,000

Selling and Administrative expenses (all fixed) 92,000 (392,000)

Operating income $ 48,000

A foreign company (whose sales will not affect Trescott's market) offers to buy 3,000 units at $17.00 per unit. In addition to the variable manufacturing costs, selling these units would increase fixed overhead by $500 and selling and administrative costs by $1,000. If Trescott accepts the offer, its profits will increase (decrease) by:

Answer : If Cornish accepts this order, its profits will increase by $13,500.

<u>Calculation of Variable Costs per unit :</u>

Direct Material and labor per unit = Total Direct Material and labor / No. of units sold

Direct Material and labor per unit =200000/20000 = $10

Variable Overhead per unit = Total Variable Overhead / No. of units sold

Variable Overhead per unit = (100000*0.4)/20000 = $2

Variable Cost per unit = $12 (Direct Material and labor per unit + Variable Overhead per unit)

Selling price of new order = $17 per unit

No. of units = 3,000

Increase in Fixed Costs = Inc in fixed overhead + inc in S&A Expenses

Increase in Fixed Costs = $1500 (500 + 1000)

Total Cost of new order = (Variable Cost per unit * No. of units) + Increased Fixed Cost

Total Cost of new order = (12*3000) + 1500 = $37,500

Total Revenues from new order = Selling price per unit * No. of units sold

Total Revenues = $51,000 (17 *3,000)

Profit from new order = Total Revenues from new order - Total Cost of new order

Profit from new order = 51000 - 37500 = $13,500

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

the ending inventory is $13,200

Explanation:

The computation of the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing is shown below:

= Variable production cost per unit × difference in units

= $13.20 per unit × (5,200 units - 4,200 units)

= $13.20 per unit × 1,000 units

= $13,200

hence, the ending inventory is $13,200

Goods are complements if an increase in the price of one causes a __________ in the demand for the other
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: decreases

Explanation: In simple words, complementary goods are those goods which have negative relation with each other in respect of price and demand. The usage of one good is dependent on other in case of complementary relation.

For example - Petrol and petrol car are complementary goods, if the price of petrol increases the demand for petrol cars will decrease.

Hence we can conclude that the right answer to the given problem is decrease.
