Answer:

(1) $30,000 + $12x

(2) $50x

(3) $38x - $30,000

(4) 790 CD's to break even

Explanation:

Given that,

Variable cost = $12 per CD

Fixed cost = $30,000

Selling price = $50 each

Let x be the number of CD's produced,

(1) Total cost function:

C(x) = Fixed cost + Variable cost

      = $30,000 + $12x

(2) Total revenue:

R(x) = Units produced × selling price of each unit

      = $50x

(3) Total profit:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

      = $50x - ($30,000 + $12x)

      = $50x - $30,000 - $12x

      = $38x - $30,000

(4) Number of CD's which must be produced to break even:

Total profit = 0

$38x - $30,000 = 0

x = $30,000 ÷ $38

  = 789.47 or 790 CD's to break even.

Lupo Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Selling price= 240*1.4= $336

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (252,000/30,000) + 2.1

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.5 per machine hour

Job T687:

Number of units in the job 10

Total machine-hours 30

Direct materials $ 675

Direct labor cost $1,050

<u>Now, we need to allocate overhead and determine the total cost:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 10.5*30= $315

Total cost= 675 + 1,050 + 315= $2,040

<u>Finally, the unitary cost and selling price:</u>

Unitary cost= 2,040/10= $240

Selling price= 240*1.4= $336

Crane Real Estate Company management is planning to fund a development project by issuing 10-year zero coupon bonds with a face
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Present value of zero coupon bond = $283

Explanation:

Provided that zero coupon bonds are to be issued.

In zero coupon bonds issue price is less than face value to meet the needs.

Interest rate = 13%

Duration = 10 years, Paid semiannually.

Thus periods = 20

Interest rate = 13 \times \frac{6}{12} = 6.5

Therefore, Present value factor @6.5% for 20 periods = 0.283

Therefore, Value of bond today = $1,000 \times 0.283 = $283
