Answer:

$50.57 ; $175,573.6

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed and variable portions of overhead costs based on machine-hours using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Overhead cost - low overhead cost) ÷ (High machine hours - low service hours)

= ($581,145 - $503,775) ÷ (8,020 hours - 6,490 hours)

= $77,370 ÷ 1,530 hours

= $50.57

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High overhead cost - (High machine hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $581,145 - (8,020 hours × $50.57)

= $581,145 - $405,571.4

= $175,573.60

The spot price of silver is $20 per ounce. The storage costs are $0.30 per ounce per year payable quarterly in advance. Assuming
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

21.11176754

Explanation:

storate cost: 0.30

as the storage is continusly we use continuos interest rate:

0.30 / 4 = 0.075 per quarter

this is paid in advance so we calculate the present values of this payment

PV = 0.075 + 0.075e^{-0.04 \times 0.25} + 0.075e^{-0.04 \times 0.50}+0.075e^{-0.04 \times 0.75}

PV = 0.295552053

Now we solve for the future value of silver using also a continuos rate

F = (spot + storage) e^{0.04 \times 1}

(20 + 0.295552053)e^0.04 = 21.11176754

Alina [70]

Answer:

a. Contribution margin per passenger = $40

b. Contribution margin ratio = 50%

c. Operating Income = $160,000

d. Operating Income = $27,500

Explanation:

a. Contribution margin per passenger = Ticket price per passenger - Variable cost per passenger

Contribution margin per passenger = $80 - $40

Contribution margin per passenger = $40

b. Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin per passenger / Ticket price per passenger

Contribution margin ratio = $40 / $80

Contribution margin ratio = 0.5

Contribution margin ratio = 50%

c. Contribution margin per passenger = $40

Sales (in units)       = 13,000 Passengers

Total Contribution = $520,000

Fixed Costs           = $360,000

Operating Income = $160,000

d. Sales revenue = $775,000

Contribution margin ratio = 50%

Total Contribution =$387,500 ($775,000 * 50%)

Fixed Costs           = $360,000

Operating Income = $27,500

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

$7,200 favorable

Explanation:

The computation of the material quantity variance is shown below:

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $4 per gallon × (2 gallons × 7,000 units - 12,200 gallons)

= $4 per gallon × (14,000 - 12,200 gallons)

= $4 per gallon × 1,800 gallons

= $7,200 favorable
