Answer:

The plant would have to work 8.33 hours

Explanation:

Initial productivity:

100 parts were produced in 1 hour

Percentage increase in productivity = 20%

New productivity:

100 + (100 × 0.2) = 100 + 20 = 120

120 parts would be produced in 1 hour

Number of hours the plant would have to work to produce 1000 parts = 1000/120 = 8.33 hours

It costs Sheridan Company $28 of variable costs and $17 of allocated fixed costs to produce an industrial trash can that sells f
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Variable costs = $28

Allocated fixed costs = $17

Selling price = $84

Due to acceptance of M offer, S would be got excess contribution margin per unit. Because acceptance selling price ($34) is greater than the variable cost per unit ($28).

We don't have any information about the fixed cost due to acceptance. Therefore, we assumed that fixed cost is not increased.

Increased contribution margin per unit:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $34 - $28

= $6

For 3,000 units, Increased contribution margin = 3,000 × $6

                                                                               = $18,000

Therefore, net income is increased by $18,000 when the offer is accepted.
