Answer:
Bellisima's opportunity cost:
Production of rye per million hours of labor = 24 / 12 = 2 pairs of jeans
Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 12 / 24 = 0.5 bushels of rye
Dolorium's opportunity cost:
Production of rye per million hours of labor = 32 / 8 = 4 pairs of jeans
Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 8 / 32 = 0.25 bushels of rye
Dolorium has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans while Bellisima has a comparative advantage in the production of rye.
If both countries specialize:
Bellisima will produce 48 million bushels of rye.
Dolorium will produce 128 million pairs of jeans.
Total production of rye has increased by 12 million bushels.
Total production of jeans has increased by 24 million pairs.
If sales volume increases and all other factors remain constant, then the Margin of safety will increase
Explanation:
The margin for safety (MOS) is described as an overall excess of current or expected revenue, expressed either in terms of currency or in units, or as a percentage of total revenues.
One of the main ways to increase the safety margin is through increasing the gross value per unit (if business conditions are favourable) and by reducing the variable cost per unit of the good. This can be accomplished by rising selling costs.
Answer:
$ 480 000
Explanation:
Assets : $700 000(@ beginning of year )
$100 000 increase (during year )
700 000+100 000=$800 000(@end of year)
Liabilities : $400 000(@ begininng of year )
$80 000 decrease (@ during of year)
400 000-80 000=$320 000 (@end of year)
Asset = Equity + Liability
Amount of owner’s equity at the end of the year (let x = owners equity)
800 000= x + 320 000
x= 800 000 - 320 000=$480 000
Answer:
The answer is true.
Explanation:
The sellers in the perfectly competitive market become price takers as they have to sell under the price decided in the market through supply and demand.
This is mainly because there is no way to differentiate the product to change the price. Since all goods are identical, one good is a perfect substitute for another.
Answer:
Overhead costs are assigned to production using an overhead application rate, whereas no such "application rate" is used to assign the costs of direct materials and direct labor to production. The reason for this difference in procedures is that:
Overhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced easily and directly to specific units of product.
Explanation:
Manufacturing overhead costs are not direct costs. They are not generally traceable to units of products. They include such indirect costs as Depreciation Expense, Property Taxes, Indirect Labor, Indirect Materials, etc. No unit of product can be ascribed such costs except as an approximation.
