Answer:

Blue Co. Shall report $396,000 as gain before income taxes on disposal of the stock.

Explanation:

Book value per share of Red Inc = $1.20 per share

As the value of share is revised just after the declaration but before distribution there will be gain on sale of investment.

Net gain = Sale price - Book value

= $3.40 - $1.20 per share = $2.2 per share

Total gain for the year end on June 30 will be

= $2.2 per share X 180,000 shares = $396,000 shares

Thus Blue Co. Shall report $396,000 as gain before income taxes on disposal of the stock.

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

$6,900

Explanation:

When you use the incremental cost allocation method, you must rank cost activities and how they will be allocated. In this case, department 2 is the primary user, and therefore, rental costs must be allocated first to them. Rental costs will be allocated at a $25/hour rate.

Since department 1 is the next user, 100 hours will be allocated using the same rate as department 2, but the next 200 hours will be allocated at the lower $22/hour rate. Total rental cost allocation to department 1 = (100 x $25) + (200 x $22) = $2,500 + $4,400 = $6,900

How do you calculate the variable cost?
NikAS [45]

Calculate total variable cost by multiplying the cost to make one unit of your product by the number of products you've developed. For example, if it costs $60 to make one unit of your product, and you've made 20 units, your total variable cost is $60 x 20, or $1,200.

Hope this helps have a great day :)
