The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test. In the blind test, Roberto did not feel the unsavory flavor from the generic store-coke and he prefers that generic store-coke. This test proves that Roberto's taste is distracted by the brand.
Answer:
a. $15,500
Explanation:
Based on LIFO, cost of 1500 unit sold will be entirely from the Purchases (year X1). Therefore, we have:
Value of units purchases (year X1) outstanding after sales = (2,000 - 1,500) * $11 = 500 * $11 = $5,500
Therefore, we have
LIFO Inventory on 12/31/X1 = Value of beginning Inventory (1/1/X1) + $5,500 = $10,000 + $5,500 = $15,500.
Answer: $5 per machine hour
Explanation:
Given the following :
Estimated manufacturing overhead cost = $550,000
Expected machine-hour to be incurred = 110,000
Actual manufacturing overhead = $575,000
Actual machine hour incurred = 120,000
The manufacturing overhead application rate:
Expected manufacturing overhead cost / Expected machine hour to be incurred
= $550,000 / 110,000 machine hour
= $5 per machine hour
