A beneficiary acquired stock from a decedent. The stock's fair market value at the date of the decedent's death was $500,000. Th

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Beneficiary recognized gain is $510000.

Explanation:

The amount paid by the decedent for the stock = $280000

The market value of the stock at the time of death = $500000

The selling price or the amount received by the beneficiary by the sell of stock = $510000

Since the recognized gain is calculated by subtracting the amount paid by the person to buy the stock from the amount that he receives from the sale of stock. But in this case, the beneficiary pays zero for the stock but gets all the money after selling.

Beneficiary recognized gain = amount received from the sell – the amount paid by the beneficiary.

= $510000 – 0

= $510000

TEA [102]

Answer: Four pies.

Explanation:

Marginal cost is the additional cost of producing one extra unit of a good or service.

From this graph we see the marginal cost rise when the first pie is produced and then it subsequently decreases as the second and third pie is produced which is where it reaches its lowest point.

From the fourth pie, the marginal cost begins to rise again which means the marginal cost begins to increase when the producer makes four pies.

Answer:

Total variation= $363 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sheridan Company’s standard labor cost per unit of output is $33.00 (3.00 hours x $11.00 per hour). During August, the company incurs 2,970 hours of direct labor at an hourly cost of $12.10 per hour in making 1,100 units of finished product.

Direct labor efficiency variance= (SQ - AQ)*standard rate

Direct labor efficiency variance= (3,300 - 2,970)*11= 3,630 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (11 - 12.1)*2,970= 3,267 unfavorable

Total variation= 363 favorable

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

$27,000

Explanation:

The following costs were incurred by Smith's company during the month of March

Direct labor $53,000

Indirect labor 18,000

Salary of corporate vice president for advertising 25,000

Direct materials 48,000

Indirect materials 4,000

Interest expense 7,500

Salary of factory supervisor 3,000 Insurance on manufacturing equipment 2,000

Therefore the actual manufacturing overhead for March can be calculated as follows

= Indirect labour + indirect materials + salary of factory supervisor + insurance on manufacturing equipments

= $18,000 + $4,000 + $3,000 + $2,000

= $27,000

Hence the actual manufacturing overhead for March is $27,000
