Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Marginal Productivity can be described as when every variable in the equation is held constant, it is the amount of productivity gained for every extra hour of labor that is put in.

And according to the information about Joey and his productivity cutting the lawns, we are provided the equation q = 0.2*L which means that for every extra hour Joey works cutting the lawns, Joey's marginal productivity is going to decrease by 0.2 or 20% so the answer is B.

I hope this answer helps.

Answer:

B) Joey's marginal productivity diminishes by 0.2 for each additional hour worked.

Explanation:

Joey's production function is Q = 0.2 x L

where:

  • Q = acres mowed per day
  • L = number of hours

Joey's productivity is constant, so he doesn't show any diminishing marginal productivity. E.g.

  • he works 5 hours, he mows 1 acre
  • he works 10 hours, he mows 2 acres
  • he works 15 hours, he mows 3 acres

Huprey Co. is the defendant in the following legal claims. For each of following claims, does Huprey (a) Record liability, (b) D
const2013 [10]

Answer:

a) Disclose in the notes

b) no Disclosure

c) Record a liability

Explanation:

There are three scenarios to be considered

1) It is reasonably possible that Huprey will lose a pending lawsuit. The loss cannot be estimable

First, premise is that Huprey Co. is facing a lawsuit and the possibility of a loss is most possible. If Huprey Co is able to recognize the amount of loss, then he would have been able to record a liability but the inability to estimate the loss means, the company can o<u>nly make appropriate disclosure in notes</u>

2)Huprey is being used for damages of $2 million. It is very unlikely (remote) that Huprey will lose the case.

This second premise is also a lawsuit on damages for $2 million, however, it is most reasonably acceptable that Huprey will win the lawsuit. As such there is no loss, that way there will be no disclosure in Huprey Co's books.

3.  Huprey can reasonably estimate that a pending lawsuit will result in damages of $1.25 million, it is probable that Huprey will lose the case.

The probability of losing a case means that there will be a loss to be recorded in the books and since the damages are already estimable to be $1.25 million. Huprey Co should record a liability

Anna [14]

Answer:

$2.25

Explanation:

sale volume of company = 30,000 unit

total fixed cost are = $30,000

total variable cost $45,000 for 30,000 unit

1 unit = 45000/30000 =  $ 1 . 5

for the sale of 40,000 unit

the  total expected cost

    = Fixed cost + Variable cost

      = $30,000 + 40,000×$1.50

      = $30,000+$60,000

     = $90,000

Cost per unit:

 = $90,000/40,000

=  $2.25
