Answer:

The question is meant to compare the original ROI and RI before the investment compared to the new investment is ROI and RI

The new investment has a lower return on investment of 11% compared to original 14%

However,the project should be considered since it has $3000 residual income in additional to the original residual income

Explanation:

The return on investment and residual income before the new investment are computed thus:

return on investment=operating income/total assets=$64,000/$400,000=16%

residual income=operating income-(total assets*rate of return)

                         =$64,000-($400,000*11%)=$20,000

Thereafter,the return on investment and residual income on the new investment are computed thus:

return on investment=operating income/total assets=$14,000/$100,000=14%

residual income=operating income-(total assets*rate of return)

                         =$14,000-($100,000*11%)=$3,000

Given Advanced Company's data, and the knowledge that the product is sold for $71 per unit and operating expenses are $300,000,
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

b) $113,000

Explanation:

For the computation of net income under absorption costing first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-

variable overhead per unit = $105,000 ÷ 35,000

= $3 per unit

The Variable cost of production per unit

Particulars                       Amount

Direct material                  $19.00

Direct labor                       $21.00

Variable overhead           $3.00

Variable cost of production

per unit                              $43.00

Cost per unit of finished goods under absorption costing

Particulars                             Amount

Total direct material cost $665,000

($19 × 35000)

Total direct labor              $735,000

($21 × 35000)

Total variable overhead $105,000

Total fixed overhead       $175,000

Total                                 $1,680,000

Units in finished goods = Number of units produced - units sold

= 35,000 - 21,000

= 14,000

Cost of finished goods under variable costing

= Variable cost of production per unit × Number of units in finished goods

= $43 × 14,000

= $602,000

Cost of goods sold

= Production cost - Finished goods  cost

= $1,680,000 - $602,000

= $1,078,000

Income statement under absorption costing

Particulars                        Amount

Sales revenue                $1,491,000

($71 × 21,000)

Less: cost of goods sold -$1,078,000

Gross Profit                      $413,000

Less : operating expenses -$300,000

Net operating income          $113,000

Alex is starting a career in ux and wants to be able to specialize in a particular ux design role and focus on one project from
meriva

A small start-up is a good fit for Alex.

Startups are frequently internet- or technology-based firms with broad market appeal. On the other hand, you don't need a sizable market to expand into in order to run a small firm. All you need is a market, and you must be able to effectively contact and service every member of that market.

Despite their tiny size, startups can have a big impact on the expansion of the economy. Startups are the epicenters of the invention; they generate jobs, which increases employment and boosts the economy; and they have a noticeable influence on the cities in which they settle.

After a few years of operation, startups are on the road to success. While small firms develop quickly, they can only do so if they start to see success over time. A startup needs time to develop and gain a large customer base that can use its product.

Types of startups are:  

  • Buyable startups
  • Scalable startups
  • Offshoot startups
  • Social startups
