Shalnov [3]

Answer:

basic earnings per share = $1.14

diluted earnings per share = $1.02

Explanation:

net income = $178,905

preferred stocks = 28,000 x 6% x $50 = $84,000

January 1, 100,000 shares outstanding x 12/12 = 100,000

February 28, purchased -22,000 treasury stocks x 10/12 = -18,333

September 30, sold 5,800 treasury stocks x 3/12 = 1,450

total weighted average stocks = 83,117

diluted stocks = [($48 - $38) / $48] x 48,000 = 10,000

basic earnings per share = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average stocks = ($178,905 - $84,000) / 83,117 stocks = $1.14

diluted earnings per share = (net income - preferred dividends) / (weighted average stocks + diluted stocks) = ($178,905 - $84,000) / (83,117 + 10,000 diluted stocks) = $1.02

Consider a profit-maximizing firm in a competitive industry. Under which of the following situations would the firm choose to pr

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Option (a) and (b) are considered or correct.

Explanation:

Under the following two conditions, a firm in a perfectly competitive market produces at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:

(i) Minimum AVC < Price < minimum ATC : Yes

In this case, a firm may suffer a loss but it will be able to cover its minimum average variable cost. Hence, this firm continue operating in this market and if he shut down its operation then he may suffer a larger loss. Therefore, it chooses to continue operating under this market conditions.

(ii) Price > minimum ATC : Yes

In this case, the price received by the seller is greater than the minimum average total cost. Therefore, the firm is able to cover all of its cost of production and earning an economic profit. Hence, it obviously chooses to continue its operation.

The third option is not considered here because in this case, the firm won't be able to cover its variable cost.

The following data relate to direct labor costs for the current period:

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:$2,125 unfavorable

Explanation:

Given

Standard costs 9,000 hours at $5.50

Actual costs 8,500 hours at $5.75

we have two formulas to calculate for direct labor rate variance is:

1ST ----Direct Labor rate variance = (Actual Rate- Standard Rate ) x Actual hour

=( $5.75 -$5.50) x 8,500 = $2,125 unfavorable

2ND----Direct Labor Rate Variance=Actual Direct Labor Cost Incurred - Standard Direct Labor Cost Based on Actual Hours

=Actual Hours x Actual Rate -Actual Hours x Standard Rate

= ($5.75 x 8,500 hours)-($5.50 x 8,500 hours)

$48,875 - $46,750 = $2,125 unfavorable

when the actual rate is higher than the standard rate, the Direct Labor Rate Variance is unfavorable and if the actual rate is lower than standard rate, the variance is favorable.
