Answer:
Fixed costs= $73,760
Variable cost= $159,430
Explanation:
<u>First, let's separate the factory overhead costs:</u>
<u></u>
Power and light 40,450
Factory insurance 23,560
Production supervisor wages 118,980
Production control wages 30,930
Factory depreciation 19,270
<u>Now, the fixed and variable costs:</u>
Fixed costs= Factory insurance 23,560 + Production control wages 30,930 + Factory depreciation 19,270
Fixed costs= $73,760
Variable cost= Power and light 40,450 + Production supervisor wages 118,980
Variable cost= $159,430
Answer:
a. Incremental analysis.
b. Sunk cost.
c. Relevant information.
d. Opportunity cost.
e. Joint products.
f. Out-of-pocket cost.
g. Split-off point.
Explanation:
a. Incremental analysis: examination of differences between costs to be incurred and revenue to be earned under different courses of action.
b. Sunk cost: a cost incurred in the past that cannot be changed as a result of future actions. Sunk cost can be defined as a cost or an amount of money that has been spent on something in the past and as such cannot be recovered.
c. Relevant information: costs and revenue that are expected to vary, depending on the course of action decided on. Hence, relevant cost are relevant for decision-making purposes but not sunk costs.
d. Opportunity cost: the benefit foregone by not pursuing an alternative course of action. Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
e. Joint products: products made from common raw materials and shared production processes.
f. Out-of-pocket cost: a cost yet to be incurred that will require future payment and may vary among alternative courses of action.
g. Split-off point: the point at which manufacturing costs are split equally between ending inventory and cost of goods sold. Thus, it give rise to joint products that emerge from the same raw materials and a shared manufacturing process.
Answer:
Preston has to make four phone calls to clients today. The call to Mr. Miller will take about an hour to complete, the call to Ms. Winnecuit will take about five minutes to complete, the call to Mr. Drudge will take about thirty minutes and the call to Mrs. Freich will take about fifteen minutes to complete. If all the calls are equally important, who should Preston call first?
From the analogy above, in order to maximize the time frame. The call to lesser clients should be prioritized before others, this means that Preston should place a call to Ms Winnecuit which will last for five minutes follow by Mrs Freich which will last for fifteen minutes follow by Mr Drudge which will last for thirty minutes and lastly to Mr Miller which will last for about an hour.
Prioritization comes in play to time frame of each call, the lesser minutes calls will not take too much time to be completed while the call with highest time frame comes last as a result of the time involved.
