Answer:

b) $20

Explanation:

The minimum acceptable price per unit is $20.

This is because the minimum acceptable price is the break even price for the division. We will not include $7 fixed cost because it is not relevant to this transaction as it has to be paid regardless of this transfer.

The Minimum price thus is the price that cancels out all relevant costs namely the variable costs of $20.

Relevant costs are also known as the incremental costs that are incurred only when a particular activity is undertaken. Fixed costs as such are not incremental. Since there is spare capacity we are not forgoing any profits from external exchanges that needs to be accounted for.

Hope this helps

A specific reduction in government spending will dampen demand-pull inflation by a greater amount the: 
A. Smaller is the econom
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

A reduction in spending is going to reduce the income of the consumers in the economy. The consumers do not spend all their income but save it partially. The saving is used to create funds which are invested again and lead to increase in output. The rate of consumption depends on the marginal propensity to consume and marginal propensity to save. The marginal propensity to save is 1-MPC. Smaller MPS will cause saving to be less, consequently investment will also be lower.

So, a reduction in the government spending will be more effective in curbing demand-pull inflation if the marginal propensity to consume is higher and marginal propensity to save is smaller.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The value that Perfection records in it's books on Jan 2, 2021 related to its investment in Satisfactory is:

$486,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Net asset value of Satisfactory = $1,944,000 on acquisition date

Stake purchased by Perfection = 25%

25% of the net asset value of Satisfactory = $486,000 ($1,944,000 * 25%)

b) There is no goodwill arising from the investment in Satisfactory.  The equity method will be used to account for the investment in the Satisfactory.  The Equity Method involves recording the investment in an associated company like Satisfactory when Perfection's ownership interest in Satisfactory is valued at 20–50% of the net assets.

devlian [24]

Answer: Generally, when trying to solve a complex accounting problem in which there are obstacles and little knowledge about the subject, the most advisable thing is to work from a conceptual framework which serves as a guide to find a reasonable answer to the problem in question. In this case Marla was clearly working with a conceptual framework, and instead Jacob was not.

N76 [4]

Answer: $1,200,000

Explanation:

The firm should include $1,200,000 as the cost of the Manufacturing facility for a new project in it's analysis.

This is because $1,200,000 is the opportunity cost of not selling the facility. The old costs that were incurred for the land and the facility are to be considered sunk costs as they have already been incurred and the only relevant cost now is what the market will pay for the facility which is $1,200,000.
