Answer:

b. changes in the same direction and in direct proportion to changes in operating activity.

Explanation:

Variable costs rise whenever production increases and falls whenever it decreases. This relationship shows that variable cost is a direct function of production volume. Examples are labor, packaging, raw materials, as these are utilized in a company's manufacturing process.

They are different from fixed costs as the latter remain the same irrespective of the volume of production your business generates. Fixed costs are also predetermined ,hence remain the same throughout a specific period.

Answer:

d. $1,080,000

Explanation:

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - ( Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Manufacturing Overhead + Variable Selling )

Contribution per unit = $160 - ($22 + $15+ $12 + $3)

Contribution per unit = $160 - $52

Contribution per unit = $108 per unit

Contribution margin for the next year = $108 per unit * 10,000

Contribution margin for the next year = $1,080,000

yuradex [85]

Answer: $30,923

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that as part of an initial investment, Jackson contributes accounts receivable that had a balance of $32,290 in the accounts of a sole proprietorship. Out of the amount, $1,367 is deemed completely worthless and for the remaining accounts, the partnership will establish a provision for possible future uncollectible accounts of $848.

The amount debited to accounts Receivable for the new partnership will be the difference between the account receivable balance and the amount that was deemed worthless. This will be:

= $32,290 - $1,367

= $30,923

Therefore, the amount debited to Accounts Receivable for the new partnership will be $30,923
