Answer:
Total= 45,684 feet
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production budget:
February= 10,993
March= 8,559
Each chair produced uses 5 board feet of wood.
Management wants an ending inventory level of raw materials to equal 20% of the production needs (in wood) for the next month.
Direct material budget:
Production= 10,993*5= 54,965
Desired ending inventroy= (8,559*5)*0.2= 1,712
Beginning inventory= (10,993*5)*0.2= (10,993)
Total= 45,684 feet
Answer:
Answer Illustration : Opportunity Cost of producing Wine is lesser in France, Opportunity Cost of producing Sweaters is lesser in Tunisia. So, France has comparative advantage in Wine, Tunisia in Sweater.
Explanation:
Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone while choosing an alternative.
Opportunity Cost of producing Sweaters & Wine in France & Tunisia are quantities of other goods (Sweaters or Tunias) sacrifised while choosing either. Sweater Opportunity Cost - Wines sacrifised, Wine Opportunity Cost - Sweaters sacrifised.
The country has a comparative advantage in a good if it can produce it with relatively less opportunity cost (in terms of other good sacrifised) than other country.
Ex : Production Possibilities
Wine Sweater Trade off (Wine :Sweater)
France 10 5 1:0.5 or 2:1
Tunisia 8 24 1:3 or 0.33:1
- France produces Wine with lesser opportunity cost (sweater sacrifised) than Tunisia [0.5 sweater < 3 sweaters] ; it has comparative advantage in Wine.
- Tunisia produces Sweater with less opportunity cost (wine sacrifised) than France [ 0.33 wine < 2 wines] ; it has comparative advantage in Tunisia

Answer:
Factory overhead= $22,900
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $15,200
Indirect materials 3,200
Indirect labor 7,700
Factory depreciation 12,000
Direct labor 36,200
<u>Factory overhead is all the indirect costs related to production. In this case:</u>
Factory overhead= indirect materials + indirect labor + factory depreciation
Factory overhead= 3,200 + 7,700 + 12,000
Factory overhead= $22,900
