A company incurs costs of $38 per unit ($27 variable and $11 fixed) to make a product that normally sells for $56. A wholesaler
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

It should accept the special order at the price of $36 as the total marginal cost will be $28.5 (27 variable cost + 1.15 shipping cost).

Explanation:

Special orders are accepted only if marginal revenue increases the marginal cost. Marginal cost is the total cost incurred to fulfill any order.

In the given scenario, since the Company already has adequate capacity and it will not incur any additional fixed cost, therefore the order can be accepted by taking variable cost in to consideration.

Marginal Revenue               36

Less: Marginal Cost

Variable Cost                      (27)

Shipping Cost                   <u> (1.15)</u>

Total Profit from Order   <u> 7.85</u>

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Dr Allowances for sales returns     $600

Cr Sales refund payable                             $600

Being increase sales refund estimate

Explanation:

The sales refund account is liability account that should naturally have a credit balance.

In the current period the balance in the sales refund payable account should be $900 in total,but there is a balancing credit amount already in the account,intuitively, the amount needed to raise the balance in the account to $900 is $600.

The necessary entries required for the sales refund payable is shown below:

Dr Allowances for sales returns     $600

Cr Sales refund payable                             $600

Being increase sales refund estimate

There is no adjusting entry to accounts receivable as that deals with receipt  of cash from sales transactions and not the actual sales transactions.

When the refund is eventually settled with cash, a debit is posted to sales refund payable and a credit to cash account
