If you require clarification on why, feel free to comment!
Answer:
A) a 23.5% decrease in materials
B) a 64% decrease in labor costs
C) a 29.1% decrease in overhead
Explanation:
White Tiger's multifactor productivity = $300 / $148 = 2.027
if we want to increase the multifactor productivity by 12%, it will = 2.27
since we will not change the sales price, we must determine the new total cost:
$300 / cost = 2.27
cost = $300 / 2.27 = $132.16 ≈ $132, which represents a $16 decrease
A) materials ⇒ $16/$68 = 23.5%
B) labor costs ⇒ $16/$25 = 64%
C) overhead ⇒ $16/$55 = 29.1%
Answer: D. Heidi's share of profits is split among the remaining 3 partners.
Explanation: A general partnership is a form of business arrangement by which two or more individuals agree create a business, sharing in all assets, profits, and financial and legal liabilities. However, unless there is a signed written agreement between partners when starting the business, with a clause setting out what would happen on the occurrence of death, the general partnership dissolves after the death of a partner. If the partnership terminates, then the assets and outstanding liabilities are all sold and the proceeds are divided equally among the partners. Therefore, Heidi's share of profits is split among the remaining 3 partners.
Answer:
$6.25 per ton of coal
Explanation:
the depletion base = purchase cost + restoration costs
- purchase cost = $20 million
- restoration costs = $6 million
depletion base = $26,000,000
depletion rate per ton of coal = (depletion base - salvage value) / estimated reserves = ($26,000,000 - $1,000,000) / 4,000,000 = $6.25 per ton of coal
The depletion rate follows the same concepts as depreciation of fixed assets, but instead of using a fixed asset, you are extracting materials and decreasing the value of the deposits.
