Answer:

Alternative A should be accepted as it is giving favourable result of $30,600

Explanation:

Xinhong Company

ALTERNATIVE A: INCREASE OR (DECREASE) IN NET INCOME

Cost to buy new machine                                                   $123,000

Cash received to trade in old machine                             $48,000

Reduction in variable manufacturing costs = 4*($33500 - $22400) = $44,400

Total change in net income                                                $30,600

ALTERNATIVE B: INCREASE OR (DECREASE) IN NET INCOME

Cost to buy new machine                                                   $119,000

Cash received to trade in old machine                             $48,000

Reduction in variable manufacturing costs = 4*($33500 - $10300) = $92,800

Total change in net income                                                $21,800

Therefore, Alternative A should be accepted as it is giving favourable result of $30,600

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

C. are unaffected by the degree of operating efficiency in a given budget period.

Explanation:

Fixed over head costs or indirect costs are cost that do not vary with the level of out put. They are essential cost required to manage a business.

These costs are the same months by Months and are needed for the smooth running of the business. They are also unaffected by the degree of operating efficiency in a given budget period.

Examples of fixed overhead are rents, salaries, depreciation , insurance and taxes. It should however be noted that if there is an increase in sales compared to the budgeted sales of the company, there could be an increase in fixed overhead cost due to additional employees and administrative staff.

Salt Company is considering investing in a new facility to extract and produce salt. The facility will increase revenues by $220
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

12%

Explanation:

Annual net income:

= Increase in annual revenue - Increase in annual costs

= $220,000 - $160,000

= $60,000

Average investment:

= (Initial investment + Salvage value at the end) ÷ 2

= (980,000 + 20,000) ÷ 2

= $500,000

Annual rate of return:

= (Annual net income ÷ Average investment) × 100

= ($60,000 ÷ $500,000) × 100

= 12%
