Answer:

Acton Corporation

The overhead for the year was:

$1,208 overapplied

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated manufacturing overhead $361,260

Estimated machine-hours 2,700

Predetermined overhead rate = $361,260/2,700 = $13.38

Actual manufacturing overhead $354,700

Actual machine-hours 2,660

Overhead applied = Actual machine hours * Predetermined overhead rate

= 2,660 * $13.38

= $355,908

Overapplied overhead = Overhead applied minus Actual overhead

= $355,908 - $354,700

= $1,208

​​Lakeside, Inc. estimated manufacturing overhead costs for the year at $371,000​, based on 180,000 estimated direct labor hours
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

D.$400 over allocated

Explanation:

For computing the over-allocated or under-allocated amount, first, we have to determine the predetermined overhead rate which is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

= $371,000 ÷ 180,000 hours

= $2.06

Now we have to find the actual overhead which equals to

= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 190,000 hours × $2.06

= $391,400

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $391,000 - $391,400

= $400 over - applied

What are the accounting differences between cash and receivables from the perspective of a buyer? A seller? How are these differ
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

From a buyer's perspective, a sale made on credit represents a liability. While a sale made on cash represents a decrease of current assets.

From a seller's perspective, a sale made on credit or cash increases current assets, but the possibility of a bad debt always exist, therefore, accounts receivables must be periodically adjusted due to bad debts.

If the seller or buyer uses accrual accounting system, the previous description holds, but if they use cash basis accounting, things change a lot. When use cash basis, transactions are recorded only when cash is exchanged, so accounts receivables do not actually increase assets (seller's perspective), and accounts payables do not increase liabilities (buyer's perspective).

Consider a hypothetical economy in which the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.50. That is, if disposable income increas
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The level of saving =  $450 billion - $400 billion= $50 billion

Marginal propensity to save = 1- marginal propensity to consume (MPC)=0.5

Expected consumption

MPC=  change in Consumption/ change in income 200 billion * 0.5 = $100billion

Therefore consumption = 100 billion + 400 billion = $500 billion

Saving = $650 billion - $500 billion=  $ 150 billion

The basic model of pure competition reviewed in this chapter finds that in the long run all firms in a purely competitive indust
Helen [10]

If all firms only earn a normal profit in the long run, firms will develop new products or lower-cost production methods because they can innovate and possibly earn an economic profit in the short run.

Explanation:

Competition involves constant efforts by companies and executives to do more than the loss (normal gains) of new goods or by improving ways to manufacture current products at lower prices. Therefore, if businesses can invent, they will achieve short-term economic advantage.

Economic benefit encourages entry, economic losses lead to exit and firms in a highly profitable market earn little economic income in a long-term equilibrium. In an industry where inflation does not change the costs of materials (a market with a constant cost), the long-term supply curve is a horizontal line.
