Answer:

Dress shirts are not a standardized (homogeneous) product.

Explanation:

Standardized products are more homogeneous in their characteristics and therefore more easily found, and the price also tends to be more influenced by competition, tending to be lower than the differentiated ones in the same range. Moreover, these products end up attracting a large number of producers and establishes imperfect competition between them.

The market characteristic of imperfect competition is one that is characterized by the great possibility for sellers to influence demand and prices by means of product differentiation, advertising, lower added value, brand, etc.

An example of a standardized product that establishes an imperfectly competitive market is the dress shirt.

A cash-strapped young professional offers to buy your car with four, equal annual payments of $3,000, beginning 2 years from tod

kiruha [24]

Answer:

This means that receiving 9000 today is better for us as we will have more at the end of 6 years.

Explanation:

We need to first calculate what is the future value of payments in both scenarios. If we receive $9,000 today and invest it at 10% for 6 years we will have 9000*1.10^6=15,944

If we start reviving cash in 4 annual payments 2 years from now of $3000 we will have to find the future value of each individual payment and add them up.

First payment Future value = 3000*1.10^4=4392 (Money can be invested for 4 years at 10%)

Second payment future value = 3000*1.10^3=3993 (Money can be invested for 3 years at 10%)

Third payment future value = 3000*1.10^2=3630 (Money can be invested for 4 years at 10%)

Fourth payment future value = 3000*1.1=3300

Add them all up = 15315

This means that receiving 9000 today is better for us as we will have more at the end of 6 years.

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total Variable manufacturing costs 288,000

Unitary variable costs= 288,000/24,000= $12

Rhythm Company has offered to purchase 3,000 IT-54s at $16 each. No variable selling costs will be incurred.

The Rowe Corporation uses a standard cost system. The company applies manufacturing overhead to units of product based on machin

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Allocated overhead= $216,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $225,000

Estimated machine-hours= 25,000

At standard, each unit of finished product requires 3 machine-hours. Units of product completed 8,000 units

<u>To allocate overhead, we need to use the standard number of machine-hours that would take to produce 8,000 units.</u>

First, we need to determine the estimated overhead rate:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 225,000/25,000= &9 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated overhead= 9*(8,000*3)= $216,000
