Answer:

$2,553,191

Explanation:

The formula to compute the break even point in dollars amount is presented below:

= (Fixed cost ) ÷ (Profit volume ratio)

where,  

Fixed cost = $300,000

And the profit volume ratio would be

= (Contribution margin) ÷ (Sales) × 100

We assume the sales be 100%

So, the variable cost is

= 88.25%

And, the contribution margin is

= 100 - 88.25

= 11.75%

So, the break even sales would be

= $300,000 ÷  11.75%

= $2,553,191

Answer:

COGS    3807 debit

FG          7896 debit

WIP         2397 debit

  Factory Overhead  14,100 credit

--to record the underapplication of overhead--

Explanation:

overhead rate:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

$515,000 overhead /  515,000 labor cost = $1

each labor cost generates a dollar of overhead.

221,400 x 1 =   221,400 overhead in COGS

459,200 x 1 = 459,200 overhead in Finished Goods

139,400 x 1 =   139,400 overhead in WIP inventory

Total applied  820,000

Actual            805,900

Underapplied    14,100

Now we weight each concept and determiante the portion underapplocated in each concept

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}Item&Value&Weight&Allocated\\COGS&221400&0.27&3807\\FG&459200&0.56&7896\\WIP&139400&0.17&2397\\&&&\\Total&820000&1&14100\\\end{array}\right]

Which of the following statements is correct?a. Strategic situations are more likely to arise when the number of decision-makers
klemol [59]

Answer: d. Game theory is not necessary for understanding competitive or monopoly markets.

Explanation:

Game Theory in Business is applied to see the options available to competitors in the market if they engage in certain actions because the outcome of one party's decision is affected by the decision of the other party. In the context of business it is often used to calculate how much profit or loss companies will make if they engage in certain actions based on the decisions of the other party.

It is therefore not necessary in Perfect Completions because the market sets the price and the participants follow. There is not need to analyse what will happen if one party picks a certain method and the other as well. It will be irrelevant because the same price will be imposed regardless.

It is also unnecessary in Monopoly markets simply because a monopoly has market control and Game theory is for situations where at least 2 parties are fighting for market control.

artcher [175]

Answer:

The probability of getting paid more than $6500 in 100 weeks is 0.6%

Explanation:

In this problem, we need to define a probabilty distribution for the money earned.

The 100-week payoff can be expressed as

PO=40*L+80*H=40*(100-H)+80*H=4000+40H

Being L the numbers of weeks we have low pay and H the weeks we have high pay.

Now, as it is a coin flip, H is a binomial random variable with p=0.5 and n=100

For a total pay off of more than 6500, H has to be

6500=4000+40H\\\\H=2500/40=62.5

That means that in at least 63 of the 100 weeks we have to get a high pay.

P(H\geq 63)=1-\sum_{i=1}^{62} P(X_i)

If we compute the individual probabilities we get P(H≥63)=0.006 or 0.6%.
