Answer:
<u><em>Part 1. </em></u>
- <em>Average cost per day of a three-day pass</em> = $53.33/day per person
- <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day </em>= $190 - $160 = $30 per person
<em />
<em><u>Part 2.</u></em>
- <em>Group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> = $180
Explanation:
The total <em>cost</em> is the <em>admission charge</em> ($60) plust the cost of the pass ($100 or $130).
For a <em>two-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $100 = $160, per person
For a <em>three-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $130 = $190, per person
<u><em>Part 1. The average cost per day of a three-day pass per person. </em></u>
The <em>average cost</em> is the total cost divided by the number of days.
- <em>Average cost</em> = $160/3days = $53.33/day per person
The <em>marginal cost of adding the third day</em> per person is found by subtracting the total cost for two days from the total cost for three days:
- <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day</em> = $190 - $160 = $30 per person
This says that althoud the average cost for the three days is $53.33 the cost of adding the third day is $30, which is much lower; thus, it is a good deal to buy a three-days pass, as they are interested in spending a lot of time there.
<u><em>Part 2. The group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em></u>
<em></em>
Since the <em>marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> is $30 per person, the marginal cost for the 6-person group is 6 times $30:
- 6 persons × $30/person = $180.
<u>Calculation of ending retained earnings balance after closing:</u>
The balance in ending retained earnings after closing can be calculated as follows:
Balance in retained earnings account before closing $297,000
Add: Revenues $185,000
Less: Expenses $103,700
Less: Dividends $18,000
Ending retained earnings balance after closing = $360,300
Hence, The balance in ending retained earnings after closing is <u>$360,300</u>
Answer:
E) I, II, and III.
Explanation:
Variable costing can be regarded as a concept of managerial accounting cost
whereby during the period of producing the product there is incurred
manufacturing overhead.
Absorption costing income statement, utilize absorption costing when creating income statement. The income statement focus on the cost through sectioning of cost into period cost and product.
It should be noted that
I. A variable-costing income statement discloses a firm's contribution margin.
II. Cost of goods sold on an absorption-costing income statement includes fixed costs.
III. The amount of variable selling and administrative cost is the same on absorption- and variable-costing income statements.
Answer: A. consumer expectation of an increase in their future income.
Explanation:
The supply curve is simply a graph that shows the relationship that is between the price of a particular good and the amount of quantity that is supplied.
A leftward shift in the supply curve for a good simply means that less of that good is supplied. All tye options will cause less of the goods to be supplied except consumer expectation of an increase in their future income.
Answer:
Accept Project A and reject Project B
Explanation:
See the images to get the answer.
Decision: Required rate of return = 16% = Cost of capital.
If Internal rate of return (IRR) > the cost of capital = Accept the project.
If Internal rate of return (IRR) < the cost of capital = Reject the project.
From the basis of the formula, we can accept the project A because the IRR of Project A (19%) is higher than the cost of capital (16%). On the other hand, we can reject the project B because the IRR of Project B (14%) is smaller than the cost of capital (14%).
