<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
(a). Firm in perfect competition produces at minimum efficient scale, MEC where average cost AC is minimum. The price is determined by the market supply and demand.
(b) Note that q1 is at the minimum of AC while Q* is to the left of q1. Similarly, P1 is equal to MC while P* is higher than MC. This shows that firms in perfect competition produce more and charge less than the firms in monopolistically competitive market.
(c) All firms in monopolistically competitive market as well as perfectly competitive market earn zero economic profit in the long run. This is because there is a free entry and exit
(d) Demand is steeper for firms in monopolistically competitive market so that demand is elastic. Demand is horizontal for any quantity which means it is perfectly elastic for a firm in competitive market.
Answer:
Explanation:
Overhead allocated to Product X = Department A overhead cost+ Department B overhead cost
= $51,157.84+$5755.62=
= $56,913
Calculations:
Using a single-driver allocation system, with direct labor hours as the driver, how much overhead was allocated to Product X:
Department A's Overhead rate per labor hour = Overhead costs/Total direct labor hours = $4300000/60000 hours = $71.66 per hour
Overhead (Department A) = $71.66per hour*724 labor hours
= $51,157.84
Department B's Overhead rate per labor hour = Overhead costs/Total direct labor hours = $2200000/60000 hours = $36.66 per hour
Overhead (Department A) = $36.66 per hour*157 labor hours
= $5755.62
Answer:
c. $36,070
Explanation:
contribution margin ratio is the ratio of the contribution to sales of an entity for a given period.
contribution margin ratio= contribution/sales
where contribution is the difference between sales and the variable cost
Given;
sales = $137,000
contribution margin ratio = 61% = 0.61
0.61 = contribution/$137,000
contribution = $137,000 × 0.61
= $83,570
Net operating income is the difference between the contribution and the fixed cost.
Fixed cost = $47,500
Net operating income = $83,570 - $47,500
= $36,070
Alfred Wegener was the scientist who proposed the Continental Drift Theory in the early twentieth century. Simply put, his hypothesis proposed that the continents had once been joined, and over time had drifted apart. I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
Expenses likely to be classified as prepaid expense (asset) are Prepaid Rent & Insurance Premiums. Enter a prepaid rent payment on the balance sheet as an asset until the month when the company is actually using the facility to which the rent relates, and then charge it to expense. Any insurance premium costs that have not expired as of the balance sheet date should be reported as a current asset such as Prepaid Insurance.
