Suppose a third firm enters the market. If they all don't cheat, then they split the profits three ways so that each firm gets 2

Answer: Harder to sustain cooperation

Explanation:

When the number of firms in an oligopolistic market increases as is the case here, cooperation becomes harder because profits become smaller so companies start to become more selfish.

Also in this scenario, the cheating firm has the incentive to do so because the profit is so much higher than sharing so companies will always be looking to cheat in order to make this profit. The other firms would reply by reducing prices and all of them would suffer.

Hodge Inc. has some material that originally cost $74,600. The material has a scrap value of $57,400 as is, but if reworked at a

Burka [1]

Answer: If the material is reworked and sold, Hodge Inc. has a financial disadvantage of (- 4500).

Let's see why:

1) If we sell the material at its disposal value: We have a cost of $ 74600 and the income from sale would be $ 57400 =

57400 - 74600 = (-17200). We have a loss of $17200.

2) If we rework the material we will have an original cost of $ 74600, an additional cost for reworking of $ 1500 and the income from its sale would be $ 54400 =

54400 - (74600 + 1500) = (-21700) We have a loss of $ 21700.

Then comparing the 2 situations =

(-21700) - (-17200) = -4500. There is a financial disadvantage of $4,500 if the material is reworked instead of selling it as scrap.

Rivera Company has several processing departments. Costs charged to the Assembly Department for November 2020 totaled $2,288,076

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Using the FIFO cost method:

beginning WIP 34,600 units

materials $79,000 (100% complete)

conversion $48,200 (30% complete, 70% remaining = 24,220 EU)

units started 662,700

materials added $1,594,520

conversion costs added $566,356

ending WIP 24,100

100% complete for materials

40% complete for conversion = 9,640 EU

units completed and transferred out = 34,600 + 662,700 - 24,100 = 673,200

units started and completed = 662,700 - 34,600 - 24,100 = 604,000

total equivalent units for the month:

materials 662,700

conversion = 24,220 + 604,000 + 9,640 = 637,860

total cost per EU:

materials = $1,594,520 / 662,700 = $2.4061

conversion = $566,356 / 637,860 = $0.8879

total = $3.294

cost of ending WIP:

materials = 24,100 x $2.4061 = $57,987

conversion = 9,640 x $0.8879 = $8,559.36 ≈ $8,559

total = $66,546

cost of units transferred out = $79,000 + $48,200 + $1,594,520 + $566,356 - $66,546 = $2,221,530

total units transferred out = 673,200

production cost per unit = $2,221,530 / 673,200 = $3.30
