Answer:

Product margin per unit= $10.19

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total Activity

Assembly $ 613,250 55,000 machine-hours

Processing orders $ 46,170 1,500 orders

Inspection $ 146,110 1,900 inspection-hours

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each activity cost pool:

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Assembly= 613,250/55,000= $11.15 per machine hour

Processing= 46,170/1,500= $30.78 per order

Inspection= 146,110/1,900= $76.9 per inspection hour

We will calculate the total cost of production and then the unitary cost to determine the product margin:

Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead

Selling price per unit $ 113.70

Direct materials cost per unit $ 48.14

Direct labor cost per unit $ 11.62

Annual unit production and sales 360

Annual machine-hours 1,040

Annual orders 60

Annual inspection-hours 30

Total cost= 48.14*360 + 11.62*360 + (1,040*11.15 + 60*30.78 + 30*76.9)= 37,263.4

Unitary cost= 37,263.4/360= 103.51

Product margin= selling price - unitary cost= 113.70 - 103.51= $10.19

If the absence of an agreement to the contrary in partnership, what are the all partners entitled?

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

d) All of above

Explanation:

A partnership agreement provides guidelines on how two or more partners will manage their partnership business. It is the contract that dictates each partner's roles, profit and loss sharing formula, and personal liability of each in case of insolvency.

In the absence of a partnership agreement, the law prescribes that partners share profits and losses equally. All partners assume equal rights to responsibilities and liabilities.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

1. a. aggregate demand shifts right.

As people are more optimistic, they will consume more in the short term because they feel as though prosperity is coming in the long term.

2. a. both the price level and real GDP rise.

Both of these would rise as Aggregate demand refers to GDP and price level would rise due to the new intersection with the Aggregate supply curve when the AD shifted right.

3. B. The expected price level rises. Bargains are struck for higher wages.

Expected price level will rise because demand is still increasing. Workers will want to benefit from this as well and so will negotiate higher wages.

4. d. short-run aggregate supply left.

As a result of the rise in expected price level and the subsequent negotiation for higher salaries, producers will find the cost of labor to be hire and so will limit production so that they do not spend as much. This will reduce supply thereby shifting the supply curve left.

5. d. the price level is higher and real GDP is the same.

The shift to the left in supply will lead to a higher price but the Real GDP will remain the same because there will be less goods produced so once prices are inflation adjusted, real GDP will be the same.

6. a. the interest rate rises, which causes the opportunity cost of holding money to rise.

If interest rates rise, people will hold less money because they could make a higher return by investing that money.

7. d. decrease, so the money supply decreases.

The money supply decreases because the Fed is taking money out of the banking system by selling bonds as people will pay the Fed for the bonds and the Fed will keep the money.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

To maximize her profit, Jennifer should abandon the product.

Explanation:

To maximize the profit Jennifer should keep marginal benefit as higher as she can, this could happen keeping marginal revenue higher and marginal cost lower as much as she can.

In this case marginal cost is higher than the marginal revenue, which is resulting as a marginal loss. Each extra batch being sold will add a loss of $10 ($110-$120).

Jennifer should abandon the product because it will reduce the average marginal benefit or total profit gradually.
