Answer:

Profit will increase by 5,975

Explanation:

From past year we can see that total variable cost will be:

Direct Material+Direct Labor+Variable Over head.

Total Variable Cost =100,000+20% of 20,000

Total Variable costs = 100,000+4000= 104,000

Per Unit Variable cost = Total Variable cost/Total Unit Produced

Per Unit Variable Cost = 104,000/16,000 = 6.5

If Benjamin accepts the offer results will be:

Sale (4,500*8.05) 36,225

Variable Cost (4,500*6.5) (29,250)

Incremental Fixed cost (650)

Incremental admin

and selling cost (350)

---------------

Direct Labour = Total overhead / Total production

= 104,000/16,000

= 6.5

These variable cost is a relevant cost, we can now compare the estimated relevant cost with the relevant revenue if the order is accepted

$

Additional Revenue (4,500 × 8.05) 36,225

Less: unit purchased (4,500 × 6.5) 29,250

----------------

Excess of revenue over cost. 6,975

-------------------

Therefore the profit will be increased by $6,975

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

His tax liability for 2019 (due April 2020) is $23,359.50

Explanation:

Since Robert s a single filer, he falls under the fourth tax bracket: income between $84,201 to $160,725. His marginal tax rate is 24%, and his total taxes due are as following:

<u>tax rate</u>         <u>earnings</u>                          <u>taxes due</u>

10%            $0 – $9,875                        $987,50

12%         $9,875 – $40,125                  $3,630

22%        $40,126 – $85,525                $9,988

24%        $85,526 – $122,000              $8,754

                    total                              $23,359.50      

*Option C is the closest one, but it used the 2018 tax brackets, not the 2019.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "evoked set"

Ikerd Company applies manufacturing overhead to jobs on the basis of machine hours used. Overhead costs are expected to total $3
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

a.  $2.4

b. $10,000 under-applied

c. Cost of goods sold A/c Dr $10,000

      To Manufacturing overhead    $10,000

Explanation:

a. The computation of the manufacturing overhead rate is shown below:

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

= $300,000 ÷ 125,000 hours

= $2.4

(B) Now we have to find the actual overhead which equals to

= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 130,000 hours × $2.4

= $312,000

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $322,000 - $312,000

= $10,000 under-applied

c. The adjusting entry is shown below:

Cost of goods sold A/c Dr $10,000

      To Manufacturing overhead    $10,000

(Being the under-applied overhead is adjusted)
