Answer:
Company A
a. Differential Analysis dated May 29
Alternative 1 Alternative 2
Opportunity cost $250,000 $550,000
Variable production costs 580,000 192,000
Total cost $830,000 $742,000
b. Sunk cost in this situation is: $225,000 ($400,000 - $175,000) cost of the old machine.
Explanation:
Company A's relevant cost for the old machine is the opportunity cost that it will lose if it continues with Alternative 1 or continued use of the old machine and the additional cost for the new machine for Alternative 2. Also relevant is the variable production costs that would be incurred if the old or new machine is used.
Company A's sunk cost is the cost of the old machine minus accumulated depreciation. Sunk cost is not relevant for decision making under differential analysis.
Company A's differential analysis is a managerial tool that is used to differentiate one decision alternative from another. In this analysis, only relevant costs are considered. A relevant cost in this case is cost that its inclusion or elimination makes a difference in the decision outcome.
Correct answer is d based on facts from the story
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, the explanation of the given situation are as follow:-
1. Ability of Contract : According to the law except of some contract a minor can enter into any contract. Mr. kalen is a seventeen year old minor and he can entered the rent contract because it is not banned by the government for the minor.
2. This is a voidable contract because Mr. Kalen is a minor and he not legally capable to entering in agreement. In voidable contract one party has a right to discontinue the contract it is depends on him that he want to void it or not. If he wants to void it he cannot be bound to go further with this contract. If a minor wants he can rightfully dis-affirm any contract in which he enters.
According to the analysis, under this circumstance, Mr. kalen is not bound to the contract because he is still minor and he shows his disaffirmance of contract by returning the key to landlord. So he is not liable for the balance of the payments due under the lease.
Answer:
A. the company's gross margin is $100,000, while its contribution margin is $60,000.
Explanation:
Under the gross margin, the net income would be
= Sales - cost of goods sold
= $300,000 - $200,000
= $100,000
Under the contribution margin, the net income would be
= Sales - cost of goods sold - variable operating expenses
= $300,000 - $200,000 - $40,000
= $60,000
Under the gross margin, no operating expenses would be considered whereas for contribution margin, only the variable operating expenses is considered
