Answer:

It is better to cleaned and shipped to the firm's outlet center at a cost of $23,000 to be sold at $80,000

Explanation: In alternative A) the firm loss is $80,000 ($125,000-$45,000)

In alternative E) all $125,000 is lost

In alternative B, C and D) the loss is $68,000 ($125,000-$80,000+$23,000)

Relevant costs are those evitable, that are cause of a manager decision related to an specific business decision.  

The only cost that can be avoided in these example is the cost of $23,000 so the goods can be cleaned and shipped to the firm's outlet center

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

C. when they are incurred, whether or not cash is paid.

Explanation:

In accrual accounting, expenses are recorded in the moment they are incurred, even if they have not been paid for.

In fact, the term "accrued expense" means an expense that has been incurred, but not yet paid.

One common example of an accrued expense is accrued wages:

Suppose that a firm hires a worker on March 1, for a wage of $1,000 dollars per month, that is due to be paid at the end of the month (March 31). This worker is earning $33 per day. By March 4, the firm should have recorded accrued wages for $132 ($33 x 4 days) even if no payments will be made until March 31.
