Is that really a question... I hope not.
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Marginal Benefit is addition to total benefit due to a business decision.
Marginal Cost is addition to total cost due to a business decision.
Marginal Benefit & Marginal Costs are determinants while considering a business decision. A decision will be taken if : Marginal Benefit ≥ Marginal Cost, as entrepreneurial decision maker would be better off or at least neutral while taking decision. If MB < MC , it is loss making for the entrepreneur to take that decision & hence is discouraged to take that.
Answer:
Cost savings when transfer are made = $0
Explanation:
In the question it was given that Quail is operating at capacity, then the Minimum and Maximum transfer price would be market price = $15.80
Cost savings when transfer are made = No of unit Marlin purchase*(Maximum transfer price - Minimum transfer price)
Cost savings when transfer are made = 195,000 unit * ($15.80 - $15.80)
Cost savings when transfer are made = $3,081,000 - $3,081,000
Cost savings when transfer are made = $0
Answer:
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Barrington Bears has developed the following sales forecasts for January 500 units.
BB has 80 bears on hand on Dec. 31. The normal ending inventory policy is to hold 20% of next month’s sales.
Direct labor is paid $18 per hour. Each bear takes 40 minutes to hand-finish. Variable overheads total $21 per direct labor hour. Fixed overheads amount to $25,000 per month.
First, we need to calculate the production for January.
Sales= 500 units
Ending inventory= (600*0.2)= 120 units
Beginning inventory= 80 (-)
Total= 540 units
Conversion costs= direct labor + manufacturing overhead
Direct labor= [(40/60)*540]*$18= $6,480
Variable overhead= 21*360 hours= $7,560
Fixed overhead= $25,000
Total conversion costs= $39,040
Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
The production possibility curve shows the maximum possible bundle of two goods that can be produced using all the available resources and state of technology.
Since the resources are scarce, when we produce more of one good, we need to sacrifice more and more of the other good.
If all the resources in the economy are fully employed then it is not possible to increase the production of one good without decreasing the production of the other.
The economy can thus produce either on the production possibility curve or below it but not above it.
