When Greenway,Inc.sells 48,000 units,its total fixed cost is $115,200.What is its total fixed cost when it sells 54,000 units?
zvonat [6]

Answer: B) $115,200

Explanation:

Fixed costs are by definition fixed which means that they do not change as a result of a change in production level. This means that where Greenway sells 48,000 units or 54,000 units or even 0 units, the company would still incur the same fixed cost of $115,200.

The costs that change as a result of production level change are called Variable costs.

Eastern Products, Inc. has an attractive package of fringe benefits that costs the company $4 for each hour of employee time (ei
hammer [34]

Answer:

$192 will be allocated to the direct labor cost while $8 will be allocated to manufacturing overhead.

Explanation:

Costs relating to idle time are part of the fringe benefits that are related to direct labor and they are parts of the benefits given to workers.

Idle time is the number of time in which workers are idle during the normal working hours or day. Some of the causes of idle time include defective materials, power outage, faulty machine, shortage of raw materials, and among others.

In cost accounting, idle time costs are not included in the direct labor costs but are considered as indirect labor costs. Idle time costs are therefore included in manufacturing overhead cost.

From the question,

Direct labor cost = (Number of hours worked by Robert – Idle hours) × hourly rate

Direct labor cost = (50 - 2) × $4

                            = 48 × $4

                            = $192  

Idle time cost = Idle time × hourly rate

                      = 2 × $4

                      = $8

Total cost = Direct labor cost + Idle time cost

                 = $192 + $8

                 = $200

Since idle time cost is considered as indirect labor cost and to be included in manufacturing overhead cost, $192 will be allocated to the direct labor cost while $8 will be allocated to manufacturing overhead.

All the best.

Increasingly, people are buying more fuel-efficient cars that burn less gasoline per mile. This seves people money
Sliva [168]
As the gas prices increase, the demand for electric and fuel efficient cars has greatly increased. People want to avoid spending more money than needed. With new advancements being made technologically, there is not much of a demand for cars that require excessive gasoline.
These new advancements have created a new era of automobiles which in turn creates job openings and economic growth in the auto industry.
Personally, I would rather purchase an electric car, or a car that is more fuel efficient to save more money in the long run.

Dominik [7]
<span>Out of the prepaid rent of $2800, $700, the actual rent for the month of January, has to be debited to rent account and prepaid rent account will be credited. Now the prepaid rent account will show a smaller figure(2800-700 = 2100) This is the amount that will be shown in the prepaid rent account in the balance sheet.
