ing low-wage workers reduces firms' costs. hiring low-wage workers provides a tax deduction to firms. u.s. workers cannot perform the tasks performed by workers in other countries.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

$9700

Explanation:

Given that

C = 6000

G = 1200

I = 1500

X= 2000

M = 1000

Recall that,

GDP = C + I + G + ( X - M)

therefore

GDP = 6000 +1500 + 1200 + (2000 - 1000)

= 8700 + 1000

= 9700

Therefore, GDP = $9,700

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Equivalent units

Materials= 40,000 units

Conversion= 36,000 units

Explanation:

Equivalent units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between work progress and completed work

Equivalent units = Degree of work done(%) × units of inventory

Conversion cost

<em>Item</em>                                            <em>     equivalent units</em>

Opening inventory 40% × 5,000 =     2,000

Fully worked units 100% × 30,000= 30,000  

Closing inventory 40%× 10,000=      <u> 4,000 </u>

Total equivalent unit                       <u>    36,000</u>

Notes

The following notes explains the computation of the items of equivalent unit for conversion cost:

1. DOC for opening inventory is 40% i.e 100%-60%. Remember that 60% work has been done in the previous period, so the balance is to be done in this current period  

2. Fully work represent the units of inventory introduced in the current period and completed in the same period. Meaning 100% work was achieved in the period.  

3. Closing work is only 40% completed. This represent work started this period but not yet completed.

Material  cost

<em>Item   </em>                                               <em> equivalent units</em>

Opening inventory 0% × 5,000 =         0

Fully worked units 100% × 30,000= 30,000  

Closing inventory 100%× 10,000=   <u> 10,000 </u>

Total equivalent unit                         <u> 40,000</u>

Notes

The following notes explains the computation of the items of equivalent unit for Material cost:

1. DOC for opening inventory is 0% i.e 100%-1000%. Remember that materials are added at the beginning. Hence all the materials required for the opening inventory had been added in the previous period

2. Fully work represent the units of inventory introduced in the current period and completed in the same period. Meaning 100% materials  was added in the period.  

3. All the materials required for the closing inventory were added in this period, hence, 100% degree of completion was used

Equivalent units

Materials= 40,000 units

Conversion= 36,000 units

Finished goods                     58,000                          50,000

raw materials use manufacturing = $108,000

solution

we get here Raw materials purchased that is express as

Raw materials purchased + beginning raw material = ending Raw materials + Raw materials used    ...................1

put here value and we get

Raw materials purchased = $50,000 + $108,000 - $47,000

Raw materials purchased = $111,000
