Answer:
1. groups costs into meaningful buckets that are then distributed based on the activity or product they support.
Explanation:
Activity based costing basically categorizes various overheads into different activities, that leads to charge of overheads based on different activities.
In this manner overheads that shall be charged on some standard products based on the activities involved is charged accordingly, and not based on standard overhead allocation rate.
Basically the overheads are divided into various activities and then distributed to each product based on the volume of activity in the manufacturing process of such activity.
Answer:
Total variable cost= 90,000
Total fixed costs= 8,000
Total costs= $98,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production of 15,000 units:
Fixed costs= $8,000
Total variable cost= $75,000
We have no reason to believe that the fixed costs will change. If 18,000 units remain in the relevant range, the fixed costs are constant.
<u>We need to calculate the unitary variable cost:</u>
Unitary variable cost= 75,000/15,000= $5
Now, for 18,000 units:
Total variable cost= 5*18,000= 90,000
Total fixed costs= 8,000
Total costs= $98,000
Answer:
(C) debit to Foreign-Currency Transaction Loss-$1040
Explanation:
Foreign currency related Financial assets and financial liabilities are usually revalued with any difference as a result of the exchange rates posted as a gain or loss in the income statement.
On transaction date, cost of assets
= 520000 * $0.034
On payment date, the amount paid
= 520000 * $0.036
The amount paid is higher than the liability recorded before hence the difference is recognized as a loss on foreign exchange.
= 520000 * $0.036 - 520000 * $0.034
= $1040
Answer: $3,026.55
Explanation:
If US$1 is to £0.7269 then that means that the pound is stronger than the dollar because a dollar buys less than a pound in which case £2,200 will be more than $2,200.
It will be;
= 2,200/0.7269
= $3,026.55
