Answer:

Total cost= 0.75x + 6,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Year 2:

Units= 12,000

Cost= $15,000

Year 1:

Units= 8,000

Cost= $12,000

To determine the cost formula, first, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost and fixed cost.

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (15,000 - 12,000) / (12,000 - 8,000)= $0.75 per unit

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 15,000 - (0.75*12,000)= $6,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 12,000 - (0.75*8,000)= $6,000

Now, the cost formula is:

Total cost= unitary variable cost + fixed cost

Total cost= 0.75x + 6,000

Serga [27]

Answer:

There will be an increase of $6,200 , If the special order is accepted

Explanation:

For computing the net income effect first we have to find out the net income per scale which is a difference between offer purchase price and variable cost per unit

In mathematically,

Net income = Offer purchase price - variable cost per unit

where,

Offer purchase price is $35

And, the variable cost is $12 per unit plus it incur special shipping charges which is also a part of the variable cost.

So, total variable cost = variable cost per unit + Special shipping charges per scale

=  $12 + $1

= $13

So, Net income is

= $15 - $13

= $2 per unit

Now for producing the 3100 scales, the net income should be multiply with the production unit

= Net income × Production unit

= 3,100 × 2

= $6,200

Fixed cost is fixed whether the production level changes or not. Thus, it is not be considered.

Hence, there will be an increase of $6,200 , If the special order is accepted

Explanation:

Finished Goods has a total cost of $11,600

If the overhead applied to these goods is $3,850

Then the Direct Labor Costs are  $5500

And Direct Materials are 2,250

Using the cross product rule

$3850    : 70

x          :   100

x= $3850*100/70= $ 5500 are Direct LAbor Costs

Direct Materials= Finished Goods - overhead applied -Direct Labor Costs

  Direct Materials             =$11,600- $3,850- $5500

($100)                 1-20                      ($851)                            ($1,487.75)                      

$3,310                 20                        $492                             $1,832.67

                                                        ($359)                           $344.92

IRR=A%+ (a/a-b)*(B%-A%)

A%=10%  a= ($359) B%=3%  b=$344.92  

IRR=10%+(-$359/-$359-$344.92)*(3%-10%)

     =6.43%
