Answer:

Case 1 Accounting break-even point = 13,861 units

Case 1 Cash break-even point = 11,286 units

Case 2 Accounting break-even point = 20,000 units

Case 2 Cash break-even point = 11,875 units

Case 3 Accounting break-even point = 225 units

Case 3 Cash break-even point = 138 units

Explanation:

Break even point refers to the point or sales unit where total cost is equal to total revenue. That is, both total revenue and total cost at the point are even and there neither profit nor loss.

Break even point can be computed for accounting break even and the cash break even points. The difference between the two is that accounting break even point include depreciation in the fixed cost while the cash break even point deduct non cash expenses from the fixed cost. The formula for the are as follows:

Accounting break even point = Fixed cost / (Unit price - Unit cost)

Cash break even point = (Fixed cost - Depreciation) / (Unit price - Unit cost)

Using the two formula for this question, we have:

Case 1 Accounting break even point = $7,000,000 / ($2,800 - $2,295) = $7,000,000 / $505 = 13,861 units

Case 1 Cash break even point = ($7,000,000 - $1,250,000) / ($2,800 - $2,295) = $5,750,000 / $505 = 11,286 units

Case 2 Accounting break even point = $160,000 / (51 - 43) = $160,000 / $8 = 20,000 units

Case 2 Cash break even point = ($160,000 - $65,000) / (51 - 43) = $95,000 / $8  = 11,875 units

Case 3 Accounting break even point = $1,800 / (12 - 4) = $1,800 / $8 = 225 units

Case 3 Cash break even point = ($1,800 - $700) / (12 - 4) = $1,100 / $8 = 138 units

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Disadvantage of Corporate Form of Organization:

d. Government regulation

Explanation:

In recent times, government regulation of businesses appears to be regarded as a disadvantage of the corporate form of organizations.  Governments intervene and regulate corporate entities whenever they fail to be self-regulatory.  But, the regulations may appear to be so much that the corporate form of organization now looks like a disadvantage.  Given the many corporate scandals, collapses, and misapplications of resources by corporate entities that have become the order of the day, government regulation is very important.  Without government regulation, many corporate bodies will not be acting in the public interest.  This is more so with public entity corporate organizations with diverse stakeholders and corporate managers who act as if they were running their own autonomous governments.

Brief Exercise 23-1 Lopez Company uses both standards and budgets. For the year, estimated production of Product X is 534,000 un
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a. $6

b.  $3204000

Explanation:

Given:

  • Product X is 534,000 units
  • cost for materials $1,441,800
  • cost for labour: $1,762,200

(a) a standard cost

As we know standard cost is the cost of producing 1 unit and is recorded in a standard cost card. However, the cost of labor, materials and overhead are used to make a single unit, so

standard cost = unit variable cost =  the total cost / the total number of unit.

In this situation, the overheading cost is not gven, so the total cost:

= The cost of labor + materials

= $1,441,800 + $1,762,200

= $3204000

=> standard cost  = $3204000  / 534,000 = $6

(b) a budgeted cost represents the total costs

The total number of units * standard cost

= 534,000 * 6

=   $3204000

Alaska king crab fishing in the 1960s and '70s was a dangerous but rich fishery. Boats from as far away as California and Japan
Readme [11.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The crabs are a Common Good. They means can run out of supply if their use gets too much by society. Therefore, the decline of the Alaska king crab fishery can be explained by stating that the plenty types of boats such as those from California and Japan, has caused people to overfish, excessive fishing has brought about a decline in the supply of crabs.

b. There are 2 ways to avoid this

1. fishing permits have to be sold to the fishermen coming to fish for the crabs. Then the persons with the highest willingness to pay will come and buy the permits to fish.

2. Issuing just a particular amount of permits this would cause the fishermen to trade these permits. These open-market strategies have proved to be effective in organizing economic activity and are good stimulators in an economy.

c. They have been successful because regulations have been placed on fishing by the government. Also, if there are restrictions on other countries using up their spots and Canadians are the only ones fishing salmon, then there will be reduction in the decay rate of the population of the salmon, the salmon can easily repopulate, then Canadians would be able to come back the next year to fish again..
