units 6,000 units

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

1) Absorption costing method:

Unitary fixed overhead= 120,000/20,000= 6

Unit product cost= direct material + direct labor + total unitary overhead

Unit product cost= 15 + 15 + 3 + 6= 39

Variable costing:

Unit product cost= direct material + direct labor + variable overhead

Unit product cost= 33

2) Ending inventory:

Absorption costing= 6,000*39= $234,000

Variable costing= 6,000*33= $198,000

3) Cost of goods sold:

Absorption costing= 14,000*39= 546,000

Variable costing= 14,000*33= 462,000

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Your answer is that she needs to earn $148 on Friday

Explanation:

Calculate Average:

(67 + 82 + 78) / 4 = 56.75 (Remember 67 is worth Monday and Tuesday)

We know that the number that the 4 numbers add up to has to be divisible by 5 because our we need to average 75 and we have 5 days to average on.

5 x 75 = 375

67 + 82 + 78 = 227

375 - 227 = 148

(67+82+78+148) / 5 = 75

Your answer is that she needs to earn $148 on Friday

Andrea invests $5,000 in five Epic Electronics bonds that mature in 10 years. Unexpectedly just the week after she invests, she

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The answer is option C. She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.

Explanation:

She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.

Investors who hold onto their bonds until maturity are assured of to receive the face value of the bond. In our case, if Andrea would have chosen to hold her $5,000 bond investment for 10 years, she would have been assured the bonds face value, however since she prefers to use the cash to work abroad, she can sell the bonds immediately.

Selling a bond before it's maturity date can either be beneficial or detrimental. This depends on the value of the bond at the time of sale. If at the time of sale the bond would have gained value, then the bond will sell at a higher price than when it was bought. On the other hand, if the bond at the time of sale has lost value, then the bond will sell at a lower price than the price which it was bought.

In our case, the best option for Andrea would be to sell the bonds immediately, since she really needs the cash. If it happens that at the point at which she sells the bonds they will have gained value, then she will have more than $5,000 cash, however, if at the point she decides to sell the bonds they will have lost value, then she will have less than $5,000 depending on how much value was lost from the time she bought the bonds and the time she sold the bonds.

Firm X and Firm Y both sell the same products at the same price; both firms are the same size with identical sales levels; Firm

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The options are given below:

A. Firm X

B. Firm Y

C. Same variability of operating profits

D. It would depend on tax effect on taxable income

The correct option is B. Firm Y

Explanation:

This is because firm Y has a higher operating leverage than firm X.

Operating Leverage refers to a cost-accounting formula that measures the degree to which a firm can increase operating income by increasing revenue. Operating leverage actually boils down to the analysis of fixed costs and variable costs, and it is highest in companies that have a high fixed operating costs in comparison with variable operating costs. What this means is that this kind of company makes use of more fixed assets. On the other hand, operating leverage is lowest in companies that have a low fixed operating costs when compared with variable operating costs.

Companies with high operating leverage are capable of making more money from each additional sale if they do not have to incur more costs to produce more sales.

Therefore, from the scenario given above, we can conclude that firm Y has a higher operating leverage than firm X, because firm X has lower fixed costs than firm Y, and a higher variable cost than firm Y as well. Hence, firm Y has the potential to make more operating profits from its business activities.
