Dechico Corporation purchased a machine 3 years ago for $456,000 when it launched product G92L. Unfortunately, this machine has

broken down and cannot be repaired. The machine could be replaced by a new model 330 machine costing $474,000 or by a new model 260 machine costing $418,000. Management has decided to buy the model 260 machine. It has less capacity than the model 330 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product G92L. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of dropping product G92L and not replacing the old machine. If that were done, the $418,000 invested in the new machine could instead have been invested in a project that would have returned a total of $496,000.
In making the decision to invest in the model 260 machine, the opportunity cost was _______.

Answer:

the $490,000 that an alternative project could have returned.

Explanation:

Opportunity costs are the costs (or benefits lost) from choosing one alternative activity or investment over another.

In this case, if Dechico decides to continue to produce product G92L, it will not be able to invest in the new project that could have generated a $496,000 return.

Deffense [45]

Answer:Share premium account of $24,000

The provider of attorney services of $30,000

Explanation:

On provision of services, the Attorney services expenses account is debited with $54,000 and the attorney services provider account credited with $54,000

Furthermore a share account is opened for the provider and credited with $30,000 , the share premium is credited $24,000 and a debit transfer is made to his liability account initially credited.

The $24,000 credit to share premium represents the difference between the nominal value of the share of $5 and the market value of $9 multiply by the 30,000 shares he was paid with.

Also a memorandum will be issued to state that 6000 share has been transferred from Miller to the attorney services provider and the shares will be delited from his name and entered in the name of the services provider because the credit of shares to his account does not represents new shares issued but it's the transfer of Miller's shares to him.

ruslelena [56]

They already have brand awareness with their customers but now they are able to engage their customers by allowing them to have a "say" in their products. They are letting them design a product they would like to see on the market and become a part of the brand/company.
