<h3>Answer: Rhombus</h3>

======================================================

Reason:

Let's find the distance from A to B. This is equivalent to finding the length of segment AB. I'll use the distance formula.

$A = (x_1,y_1) = (3,5) \text{ and } B = (x_2, y_2) = (7,6)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(3-7)^2 + (5-6)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + (-1)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{16 + 1}\\\\d = \sqrt{17}\\\\d \approx 4.1231\\\\$

Segment AB is exactly $\sqrt{17}$ units long, which is approximately 4.1231 units.

If you were to repeat similar steps for the other sides (BC, CD and AD) you should find that all four sides are the same length. Because of this fact, we have a rhombus.

-------------------------

Let's see if this rhombus is a square or not. We'll need to see if the adjacent sides are perpendicular. For that we'll need the slope.

Let's find the slope of AB.

$A = (x_1,y_1) = (3,5) \text{ and } B = (x_2,y_2) = (7,6)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{6 - 5}{7 - 3}\\\\m = \frac{1}{4}\\\\$

Segment AB has a slope of 1/4.

Do the same for BC

$B = (x_1,y_1) = (7,6) \text{ and } C = (x_2,y_2) = (6,2)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{2 - 6}{6 - 7}\\\\m = \frac{-4}{-1}\\\\m = 4\\\\$

Unfortunately the two slopes of 1/4 and 4 are not negative reciprocals of one another. One slope has to be negative while the other is positive, if we wanted perpendicular lines. Also recall that perpendicular slopes must multiply to -1.

We don't have perpendicular lines, so the interior angles are not 90 degrees each.

Therefore, this figure is not a rectangle and by extension it's not a square either.

The best description for this figure is a <u>rhombus</u>.

The following events took place at a manufacturing company for the current year: (1) Purchased $115,000 in direct materials. (2)

Elden [556K]

The question was not written properly. Here is the appropriate form of question:

The following events took place at a manufacturing company for the current year:

(1) Purchased $115,000 in direct materials.

(2) Incurred labor costs as follows: (a) direct, $76,000 and (b) indirect, $33,600.

(3) Other manufacturing overhead was $127,000, excluding indirect labor.

(4) Transferred 75% of the materials to the manufacturing assembly line.

(5) Completed 60% of the Work-in-Process during the year.

(6) Sold 80% of the completed goods.

(7) There were no beginning inventories.

1- What is the company's Cost of Goods Sold?

Options:

a. $193,710

b. $154,968

c. $322,850

d. $258,280

Answer:

1- b. $154,968

Step-by-step explanation:

1- Cost of goods sold (COGS) is the is the expense of securing or assembling the items that an organization sells during a period, so the main costs remembered for the measure are those that are directly attached to the creation of the items, including the expense of work (labor cost), materials, and assembling overhead.

0.6*[$0 + 0.75*($115,000) + $76,000 + ($127,000 + $33,600)] <em>(because completed 60% of the Work-in-Process during the year)</em>

= $193,710

80% of $193,710 <em>(because sold 80% of the completed goods)</em>

0.8*$193,710

= $154,968
