Basile [38]4 years ago

Answer: A

Explanation:

The shareholder wealth maximization goal states that management should seek to maximize the present value of the expected future returns to the owners (that is, shareholders) of the firm. The longer it takes to receive a benefit, such as a cash dividend or price appreciation of the firm’s stock, the lower the value investors place on that benefit. Also, the greater the risk associated with receiving a future benefit, the lower the value investors place on that benefit. Since Asset A promises more benefits in the short run, it is better to choose option A.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

1. $5.62

2. $15,174

Explanation:

1. The computation of the cost of one unit of product under variable costing is shown below:-

Total product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable overhead

= $123,000 + $93,000 + $65,000

= $281,000

Unit product cost = Total product cost ÷ Produced units

= $281,000 ÷ $50,000

= $5.62

2. The computation of cost of ending inventory under variable costing is shown below:-

Unsold at end = Unit produced - Unit sold

= 50,000 - 47,300

= 2,700

Cost of ending inventory = Number of units sold × Unit product cost

= $5.62 × 2,700

= $15,174
