Answer:

It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 43,000 units

Variable costs are $2.95 per unit

Avoidable Fixed costs= $73,000 per year

Unavoidable fixed costs= $77,500 per year.

The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.70 per unit.

We need to calculate the cost of producing and buying and choose the best option.

Production:

Total cost= 43,000*2.95 + 73,000= $199,850

Buy:

Total cost= 43,000*3.7= $159,100

It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The Burkes pay their babysitter​ $5 per hour before 11 P.M. and​ $7.50 after 11 P.M. One evening they went out for 4 hr and paid the sitter ​$27.50.

We need to formulate the total cost:

TC= 5*x + 7.5*y

x=5*4= 20

y=7.5*1= 7.5

TC= 5*4 + 7.5*1= $27.5

They came back home at 12 pm

diamong [38]

Answer:

(A) pay within the discount period and recognize a savings.

Explanation:

The given credit terms of 2/10, n/30 means

If the payment is paid within 10 days so 2% discount is given and the total credit period given is 30 days

Suppose we take an example

A buys the merchandise of goods from B for $10,000 on April 1. The payment is doe by A on April 7

So, the net payment is

= $10,000 - $10,000 × 2%

= $10,000 - $200

= $9,800

The $200 shows the discount which A avails and termed as a savings

⇒ A=P\times \frac{r(1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1}

       =100000\times \frac{0.1(1+0.1)^{30}}{(1+0.1)^{30}-1}

       =10,607.92 ($)

                                                                                                       $

Sales revenue from special order

(22× $361.00)                                                                               7942

Variable cost of special order

(22× $240 )                                                                                    (5280 )

Cost of special tool                                                                      <u> (454)</u>

Financial advantage                                                                    <u> 2,208 </u>
