Answer:

b. Special damages

Explanation:

Damages are remedies paid to claimants or plaintiffs as compensation for loss or injury caused by the defendant.

Special damages compensate the claimant for quantifiable monetary losses which can be either direct losses or consequential damages. For example the cost of replacement of damaged property is categorized as a direct loss and lost earnings relates to consequential damages.

The $100,000 worth of porcelain that was damaged is a direct loss which may be recovered by CraftCo under special damages.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Income will increase by $5 per unit

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: 26.5% increase

Explanation:

Current profit = Sales - Variable costs - fixed costs

= ((32.50 - 16.50) * 360 bears) - 1,420

= $4,340

Sales increase by 20% = 360 * ( 1 + 20%) = 432 bears

New profit;

= ((32.50 - 16.50) * 432 bears) - 1,420

= $5,492

Effect of sales increase = ( 5,492 - 4,340) / 4,340

= 26.5% increase

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Indirect costs incurred in a manufacturing environment that cannot be traced directly to a product are treated as Product costs and expenses when the goods are sold, Option D.

Explanation:

Indirect costs are also manufacturing overheads which cannot be directly put on the product but they have to be allocated in some way. So, these are treated as 'product costs' and 'expenses' when the goods are sold. They are not period costs as per Option A and option C. Option B which says that it is product costs when incurred, which is also incorrect.

Examples of indirect costs can be accounting and legal expenses, rent, telephone expenses, salaries of administrative.

Direct costs includes the costs of direct 'labor', materials and commissions.
