Answer: The variable cost per unit is 150, The mark up percentage on variable cost is 5%, The selling price is $192

Explanation:

To calculate variable cost per unit

= (40 + 25 + 15 + 70)

= 150

To calculate fixed cost per unit

(670,000 + 305,000 + 285,000)

=1,260,000

Fixed cost per unit

= Total Fixed cost ÷ Total unit produced

= 1,260,000 ÷ 30,000

= 42

To compute the total variable cost

=Total Variable cost = Total quantity of output × variable cost per unit of output

= 30,000 × 150

= 4,500,000

Total Cost

= TFC + TVC

= 1,260, 000 + 4,500,000

= 5,760,000

To compute the mark up percentage on variable cost

= profit/ cost price ×100

= 310,000/ 5,760,000 × 100

= 0.05 × 100

= 5%

To compute the product selling price using the variable cost method

= variable cost per unit + Fixed cost per unit

= 150 + 42

= 192

Therefore the selling price is $192 in order to cover the fixed cost.

Answer:

1. Variable cost per unit   = $150

2. Markup percentage     = 34.89%

3. Selling price                 = $202.33

Explanation:

Variable cost per unit = 70+40+25+15= $150

Fixed cost   =  670,000+ 305,000 +285,000= $1,260,000

Fixed cost per unit  =    1,260,000/30,000= $42

Profit per unit   =        <u>Targeted profit</u>

                               Targeted production unit

                          = <u>$310,000 </u>   =$10.33

                                30,000

Markup percenge =     <u>Fixed cost per unit + profit per unit</u>

                                          Variable cost per unit

                                =<u>$42+ $10.33</u>    =    <u>52.33 </u>* <u>100</u>   = 34.89%

                                       $150                   $150      1

Selling Price        =  Variable cost per unit + markup

                            =  $150+$42+$10.33

                             = $202.33

Variable cost-plus pricing is calculated by  determining variable costs per unit and adding mark-up which will cover fixed costs per unit and generate a targeted profit margin.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

1. Ellen would only be able to recover the $500,000 insurance proceed if she should be able to find a technicality in the insurance company's rules and regulation. <em>This is because, strictly following the rules, there is nothing she can do regarding to the claim.</em>

<em />

2. It is not ethical for the insurance company to deny the claim of Ellen on the basis of technicality but when viewed from another perspective, they are strictly following the rules of the insurance organization and applying it to the later.<em> It is now left for the claimant to find another technicality on why he or she must be paid the insurance claim.</em>

What Muhammad found unsatisfactory about the Certificate of deposit is that the return on the investment was too low.

Basically, a certificate of deposit is under a Short term investment instrument which yields low interest value for investors.

The Short term investment yields on investment are low because it is for short period of time and involves lesser risks. Other instruments under Short term investment includes Money market etc.

Therefore, the option C is correct because the Certificate of deposit was seen as unsatisfactory by Muhammad because the return on the investment was too low.

On January 1, 2011 Grace Company had an $13,000 balance in the Accounts Receivable account and a zero balance in the Allowance f
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The amount of uncollectible accounts expense recognized on the 2011 income statement is:

$6,600.

Explanation:

As the amount of uncollectible accounts are expressed as percentage of the total sales, then the amount is $6,600

  • Initial Balance  

Dr Accounts Receivable  $ 13.000  

During 2011, Grace provided $55,000 of service on account  

Dr Accounts Receivable  $ 55.000  

Cr SALES $ 55.000  

  • The company collected $48,100 cash from account receivable.  

Dr CASH $ 48.100  

Cr Accounts Receivable  $ 48.100  

  • Uncollectible accounts are estimated to be 12% of sales on account  

Dr Bad Debt Expense $ 6.600  

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 6.600  

If the company applies the allowance method, it means that the account Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts must show as balance the % of accounts receivables as CREDIT.

Bad accounts are those credits granted by the company and there is no possibility of being charged.

"When customers buy products on credits but the company cannot collect the debt, then it's necessary  to cancel the unpaid invoice as uncollectible."

One way is to directly cancel bad debts at the time it was decided that the credit is bad, the total amount reported as bad debt expenses negatively affect the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduced by the same amount, less assets

The other way is to determine a percentage of the total amount of accounts receivable as bad debts, there are many ways to analyze accounts receivable and calculate the value of bad debts.

When the company has the percentage of uncollectible accounts, the required journal entry is Bad Expenses (debit) with Reserve for Bad Accounts (credit)

At the time of cancellation, since the expenses were recognized before, we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit)  with accounts receivable (credit), with this we are recognizing the bad credit of the company.
