Adkins Bakery uses the modified halfminusmonth convention to calculate depreciation expense in the year an asset is purchased or
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is $9187.5.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Asset cost = $140,000

Residual value = $42,000

Life period = 8 years

So, Annual depreciation can be calculated by using following method:

Annual depreciation = ( Asset cost - Residual value) ÷ Life period

= ($140,000 - $42,000) ÷ 8

= $12,250

As depreciation is to be recorded till Dec.31

So, total time period = Apr - Dec = 9 months

So, Depreciation expense till Dec.31 = $12,250 × (9 ÷ 12)

= $9,187.5

Hence, Depreciation expense till Dec.31 is $9,187.5.

horsena [70]

Answer:

Contribution per unit

= Selling price - Variable cost per unit

 = $27 -$13

= $14

Contribution margin ratio

= Contribution per unit

  selling price

= $14

  $27

=  0.518518518

Break-even point in dollars

= $1,400

  0.518518518

= $2,700

               

Explanation:

Break-even point in dollars  equals fixed cost divided by contribution margin ratio. Contribution margin ratio is equal to contribution per unit divided by selling price. Contribution per unit is selling price minus variable cost per unit.

The total utility from consuming five donuts is 9, 19, 30, 38, and 45 utils, respectively. Marginal utility begins to diminish a
Sonja [21]

Answer:

third

Explanation:

The utility for consuming the first donut is 9 utils.

The utility for consuming the second donut is the difference from the total utility for the first two and just the first donut.

U_2 = 19-9 = 10\ utils

The utility for consuming the third donut is the difference from the total utility for the first three and just the first two donuts.

U_3 = 30-19 =11\ utils

The utility for consuming the fourth donut is the difference from the total utility for the first four and just the first three donuts.

U_4 = 38-30 =8\ utils

Since the utility for the 4th donut is less than the utility for the 3rd donut, utility begins to diminish after consuming the third donut.
