Answer:

Using weighted average method

Statement of equivalent units

Material Conversion

Units Units

Units transferred out 19,000 19,000

Add: Closing work-in-progress 6,000 1,800

Average divisor  25,000  20,800

Computation of cost per unit

Material Conversion

$ $

Cost of beginning work-in-progress 10,000 19,000

Cost added 50,000 112,248

Total cost  60,000  131,248

Material cost per unit = $60,000

25,000 units

= $2.40 per unit

Conversion cost per unit = $131,248

20,800 units

= $6.31 per unit

Value of units transferred out

Material = 19,000 x $2.40 = $45,600

Conversion = 19,000 x $6.31 = $119,890

Value of closing work-in-progress

Material = 6,000 x $2.40 = $14,400

Conversion = 1,800 x $6.31 = 11,358

Explanation:

In this case, we need to prepare statement of equivalent units in order to ascertain the average divisor. The average divisor is the sum of units transferred out and closing work-in-progress. Then, we will obtain the total cost of material and conversion, which is the aggregate of cost of opening work-in-progress and cost of units added. We will also calculate the cost per unit, which is total cost of material and conversion divided by average divisor. Finally, the units transferred and ending work-in-progress will be valued at unit cost of material and conversion.

White Tiger Electronics produces CD players using an automated assembly line process. The standard cost of CD players is $148 p

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

A) a 23.5% decrease in materials

B) a 64% decrease in labor costs

C) a 29.1% decrease in overhead

Explanation:

White Tiger's multifactor productivity = $300 / $148 = 2.027

if we want to increase the multifactor productivity by 12%, it will = 2.27

since we will not change the sales price, we must determine the new total cost:

$300 / cost = 2.27

cost = $300 / 2.27 = $132.16 ≈ $132, which represents a $16 decrease

A) materials ⇒ $16/$68 = 23.5%

B) labor costs ⇒ $16/$25 = 64%

C) overhead ⇒ $16/$55 = 29.1%

Production 54,000 units 60,000 units Machine-hours 985 hours 1,800 hours Fixed overhead costs for September $53,400 $90,000 The

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The fixed overhead production-volume variance is $9,000 U

Explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the fixed overhead production-volume variance.

We start by calculating the fixed overhead applied to production.

mathematically that is equal to : 54,000 * 0.03 * 50 = 81,000

The budgeted fixed overhead = 90,000

Mathematically,

Fixed overhead production-volume variance = Budgeted fixed overhead - fixed overhead applied to production = 90,000 - 81,000 = $9,000 U

A decrease in government spending

stich3 [128]

Answer:

a. decreases the interest rate and so investment spending increases.

Explanation:

An increase in government spending has a crowd-out effect on the economy as interest rate rises since government borrows more than many businesses in terms of size and volume. The opposite effect results when government spending decreases.
