Answer: C. the marginal revenue of building the distribution center is larger than the marginal cost of building it

Explanation:

A firm maximises Profit at a level where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost.

If a situation arises where Marginal Revenue is greater than Marginal cost, Profit is not yet maximised and the firm is NOT producing enough goods and services and should increase their output until Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost.

If Option C holds true, the Firm SHOULD build another distribution center so as to produce until Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost and profit is maximised.

Rufina [12.5K]

The question is incomplete:

If Farmer Brown plants no seeds on his farm, he gets no harvest. If he plants 1 bag of seeds, he gets 5 bushels of wheat. If he plants 2 bags, he gets 9 bushels. If he plants 3 bags, he gets 12 bushels. A bag of seeds costs $120, and seeds are his only cost.

Farmer Brown's total-cost curve is

a. increasing at an increasing rate.

b. increasing at a decreasing rate.

c. increasing at a constant rate.

d. decreasing.

Answer:

a. increasing at an increasing rate.

Explanation:

To determine the answer, you can create a graph with the information given hich is attached.

You can see that the curve is increasing and because of that you can eliminate option d that is decreasing. Then, you have to consider that increasing at a constant rate would show an straight line which is not the case. Also, increasing at a decreasing rate would show a decreasing slope which is not what you see in the graph. Because of that, the answer is that Farmer Brown’s total cost curve is increasing at an increasing rate because the graphs shows an increasing slope.

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Part 1.  Compute the company%u2019s predetermined overhead rate for the year

Predetermined overhead rate  = $15 / Computer Hour

Part 2. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.

Underapplied Overheads are: $1,350,000 -  $900,000 = $450,000

Part 3.  Assume the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead directly to cost of goods sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry.

Cost of goods sold $450,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000 (credit)

Part 4. Company allocates any underapplied or overapplied overhead to work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold on the basis of the amount of overhead applied during the year that remains in each account at the end of the year:

Work In Process $18,000 (debit)

Finished Goods $73,008 (debit)

Cost of Goods Sold $315,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000(credit)

Explanation:

Part 1.  Compute the company%u2019s predetermined overhead rate for the year

Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity

                                                    = $1,275,000/ 85,000

                                                    = $15 / Computer Hour

Part 2. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.

Applied Overheads = Actual hours × Predetermined overhead rate

                                 = 60,000 × $15

                                 =  $900,000

Actual Overheads = given = $1,350,000

Applied Overheads $900,000 < Actual Overheads $1,350,000, thus we have an underapplied situation

Therefore Underapplied Overheads are: $1,350,000 -  $900,000 = $450,000

Part 3.  Assume the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead directly to cost of goods sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry.

Cost of goods sold $450,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000 (credit)

Part 4. Company allocates any underapplied or overapplied overhead to work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold on the basis of the amount of overhead applied during the year that remains in each account at the end of the year:

Allocations:

                                         Totals          Weighted Average%       Allocation

Work In Process              $43,200                   4%                           $18,000

Finished Goods              $280,800               26%                           $73,008

Cost of Goods Sold        $756,000               70%                          $315,000

Total                                $1,080,000            100%                         $450,000

Journals:

Work In Process $18,000 (debit)

Finished Goods $73,008 (debit)

Cost of Goods Sold $315,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000(credit)
