Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": If tax cuts are not evenly distributed across income groups.

Explanation:

Fiscal policy refers to the combined governmental decisions regarding a country's taxing and spending. The term fiscal policy is associated with British economist John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) who believed governments should influence macroeconomic productivity levels. Though, it could be a trap if it is not allocated correctly among different income groups. Economies such as Brazil, for instance, have allocated higher taxes for low-income people creating economic disparity.

Answer:

a) channel members.

Explanation:

A push-based distribution system can be defined as one whose production plan is directed from management to the market, where products are sent through a channel until they reach retailers, and then to the final consumer.

Therefore, managers direct their promotional efforts more towards channel members, so that the path that the product goes through to reach the final consumer is effective so that the product arrives in the right way, in the right quantity and at the right time to the consumer. Effective management of the company 's distribution channel helps to reduce costs, reduce delays, speed up the capacity to meet demand, increase customer satisfaction, etc.

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Part 1. Compute the company%u2019s predetermined overhead rate for the year

Predetermined overhead rate = $15 / Computer Hour

Part 2. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.

Underapplied Overheads are: $1,350,000 - $900,000 = $450,000

Part 3. Assume the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead directly to cost of goods sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry.

Cost of goods sold $450,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000 (credit)

Part 4. Company allocates any underapplied or overapplied overhead to work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold on the basis of the amount of overhead applied during the year that remains in each account at the end of the year:

Work In Process $18,000 (debit)

Finished Goods $73,008 (debit)

Cost of Goods Sold $315,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000(credit)

Explanation:

Part 1. Compute the company%u2019s predetermined overhead rate for the year

Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity

= $1,275,000/ 85,000

= $15 / Computer Hour

Part 2. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.

Applied Overheads = Actual hours × Predetermined overhead rate

= 60,000 × $15

= $900,000

Actual Overheads = given = $1,350,000

Applied Overheads $900,000 < Actual Overheads $1,350,000, thus we have an underapplied situation

Therefore Underapplied Overheads are: $1,350,000 - $900,000 = $450,000

Part 3. Assume the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead directly to cost of goods sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry.

Cost of goods sold $450,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000 (credit)

Allocations:

Totals Weighted Average% Allocation

Work In Process $43,200 4% $18,000

Finished Goods $280,800 26% $73,008

Cost of Goods Sold $756,000 70% $315,000

Total $1,080,000 100% $450,000

Journals:

Work In Process $18,000 (debit)

Finished Goods $73,008 (debit)

Cost of Goods Sold $315,000 (debit)

Overhead Account $450,000(credit)
