Last month, sellers of good Y took in $100 in total revenue on sales of 50 units of good Y. This month sellers of good Y raised

their price and took in $120 in total revenue on sales of 40 units of good Y. At the same time, the price of good X stayed the same, but sales of good X increased from 20 units to 40 units. We can conclude that goods X and Y area. They are substitutes, and have a cross-price elasticity of 0.60. b. They are complements, and have a cross-price elasticity of 0.60. c. They are substitutes, and have a cross-price clasticity of 1.67. d. They are complements, and have a cross-price elasticity of 1.67.

Answer:

Option c = They are Substitutes and have cross price elasticity of 1.67

Explanation:

Cross-Price Elasticity = <u>%change in Quantity demanded of  good X</u>

                                      %change in Price of good Y

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X = <u>Q2-Q1  </u> × 100

                                                                            (<u>Q1+Q2)</u>

                                                                                2

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X =<u> 40-20 </u> ×100

                                                                            <u>(20+40)</u>

                                                                                 2

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X = 66.67%

% change in price of good Y = <u>P2-P1</u> × 100

                                                  <u> ( P1+P2)</u>

                                                       2

Last month Total Revenue = $100

Total Units = 50

Last month Price / unit = 100/50 = $2

This Total Revenue $120

Total units 40

This monthPrice / unit = 120/40 = $3

% change in price of good Y=<u> 3 - 2     </u>× 100

                                                    <u>3+2</u>

                                                      2

% change in price of good Y =<u> 1   </u>× 100

                                                  2.5

% change in price of good Y = 40%

Cross-Price Elasticity =<u> 66.67</u>

                                        40

Cross- Price Elasticity = 1.67

Since its greater than 1 its Cross price elasticity of Substitute

also as the price of good y increased from $2 to $3 the quantity demanded of good x increased although its price remained constant which indicates its a substitute good as  people preferred buying good x instead of good y

Momentum Rollerblades has three product lines: D, E, and F. The following information is available:
Mila [183]

Answer:

Operating income will increase by $16,000. This is not given as one of the options.

Explanation:

The difference between the sales and variable expense gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin net the fixed cost gives the operating income or loss.

                                                     D                         E                    F

Sales revenue                            $90,000        $40,000        $30,000

Variable costs                            <u>($40,000)</u>      <u>($10,000)</u>       <u>($10,000)</u>

Contribution margin                   $50,000        $30,000        $20,000

Fixed costs                                 <u>($10,000) </u>       <u>($5,000)</u>       <u>($25,000) </u>

Operating income (loss)             $40,000         $25,000       ($5,000)

The total operating income is

= $40,000 + $25,000 + ($5,000)

= $60,000

Should the fixed costs of F be eliminated, the operating income/(loss) of F

= $21,000 - $5,000

= $16,000

This is the net increase in the total operating income.

Assume company can produce any amount above 3.4 units. Naploc purchased the equipment for $12,000 and did not start production y
svetlana [45]

Answer: $12,000

Explanation:

As no production has been started yet, no other costs have been incurred by Naples for the equipment other than the $12,000.

The lowest price that Tebit should offer therefore should be the price that the equipment was purchased for as the equipment has not not been used to produce anything and so has not incurred any variable costs or donated any incremental value that would decrease or increase its value.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

SafeRide, Inc.

a. The financial implications of accepting the order are that total production cost will increase by $315,000 with a corresponding increase in sales revenue of $540,000, and an increase in net income by $225,000.

b. Under full capacity, the total production cost will increase by $1,485,000 for adding additional facilities while the sales revenue would increase by $540,000, resulting to a loss of $945,000.

c. Under full-capacity circumstances, there is a financing disadvantage of accepting the order because the order will entail additional capacity and facilities, resulting to a loss of $945,000.

Explanation:

Annual production capacity = 300,000 units

Current production capacity = 180,000 units

Special order from a German manufacturer = 60,000 units

Special order price per unit = $9.00

Budgeted Costs For      180,000 Units  240,000 Units  Difference 60,000

Manufacturing costs

Direct materials                 $450,000           $600,000       $150,000

Direct labor                           315,000             420,000          105,000

Factory overhead              1,215,000           1,260,000           45,000

Total                                  1,980,000          2,280,000       $300,000

Selling and administrative 765,000              780,000            15,000

Total                              $2,745,000        $3,060,000        $315,000

Costs per unit

Manufacturing                       $11.00                  $9.50

Selling and administrative       4.25                     3.25

Total                                     $15.25                  $12.75

Selling price to North American manufacturers = $20 per unit

Financial implications of accepting the order:

Manufacturing costs

Direct materials                  $150,000

Direct labor                           105,000

Factory overhead                  45,000

Total                                  $300,000

Selling and administrative    15,000

Total                                  $315,000

Total cost per unit = $5.25 ($315,000/60,000)

Total manufacturing cost per unit = $5 ($300,000/60,000)

Increase in net income from accepting the order = $225,000 ($9.00 - $5.25) * 60,000

Manufacturing costs

Direct materials                  $150,000 (variable)

Direct labor                           105,000 (variable)

Factory overhead              1,215,000

Total                                $1,470,000

Selling and administrative    15,000 (assumed to be variable)

Total                               $1,485,000

Unit cost per additional unit = $24.75

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

a. Debit to Prepaid Insurance of $10,000

* Option for this question was missing so I have attached a similar question with this answer and answered accordingly.

Explanation:

Insurance purchased for four years was actually prepaid insurance on May 1, Year 2.

The company expensed all amount by positing following entry ( which is a wrong entry)

DR.   Insurance Expense  $12,000

Cr.    Cash                          $12,000

It should be entered as follow:

DR.   Prepaid Insurance   $12,000

Cr.    Cash                          $12,000

At the end of the year 2 8 months has been passed for which $2,000 is accrued and it will be recorded, as all the amount is charged to the expense account we will adjusted the remaining amount of $10,000 to correct this mistake.

Now at the end of year 2 the correct entry which will settle the expense and prepaid insurance as well is as follow.

DR.   Prepaid Insurance   $10,000

Cr.    Insurance Expense  $10,000
