<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>year     Plan A           Discount (15%) Present value </u>

1        $3                   0.8695           $2.3085

2     $3.05                   0.7561           $2.306105

3      $3.10                      0.6575     $2.03825

4    $3.15                     0.5718           $1.80117

 total                                         $8.754025

<u>Year Plan B Discount (10%) Present value </u>

1        $0.5                0.9090         0.4545

Thus, from the above calculation, it is clear that investment in plan B will be more fruitful as it will yield more amount of money as has been calculated by present value method.

Semi-fixed Cost will be
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

B. more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output

Explanation:

Semi-fixed Cost will be "more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output."

This is because a semi-fixed cost also known as semi-variable cost or mixed cost is a combination of both a fixed factor and a variable factor.

Such that if production was zero some costs would still be incurred. However, as output rises, the variable part of the costs will rise in direct proportion to output.

Work in process                38,000                   41,000

Finished goods                 22,000                   34,000

The following information was taken from XYZ Company's accounting records

for 2020:

Sales revenue ...........................................   $630,000

Direct materials purchased ..............................       ?

Depreciation, factory equipment .........................     34,000

Prime costs .............................................    250,000

Direct labor ............................................       ?

Advertising .............................................     75,000

Production supervisor's salary ..........................     81,000

Additional information:

1.  Direct labor comprised 35% of the conversion costs for 2020.

2.  The actual overhead cost for 2020 was equal to the overhead applied

   to production. Thus there was no overhead variance for 2020.

A) Calculate XYZ Company's direct labor cost for 2020.

B) Calculate the direct materials purchased by XYZ Company in 2020.

C) Calculate XYZ Company's sales commissions for 2020.

Answer is:

a) Total overhead = 34000+12000+25000+56000+81000 = 208000

Direct labor = 208000*35/65 = 112000

b) Direct material used = 250000-112000 = 138000

Direct material purchase = 138000+50000-37000 = 151000

c) Sales and administrative expense other than sales commission = 113000

Sales commission = 630000-443000-113000-10000 = 64000
