Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Marginal Utility puts a numerical value on the amount of satisfaction that a consumer gets from buying an additional unit of a product or service. Therefore based on this information it can be said that the information provided in the question indicates that in order to maximize utility, Ellie should buy more of Alpha and less of Beta, mainly due to the fact that the marginal cost of Alpha is double that of Beta and both cost the same price.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Tax return preparers may generally rely on a client's representations without verification unless the information seems incorrect, inconsistent, or incomplete, Option A.

Explanation:

A  "tax return preparer" usually relies in good faith without verification upon information furnished by a taxpayer or another advisor or third party. But he has the authority to make inquires in case he feels the information given is incomplete or inconsistent. Also, some of the provisions also require few circumstances or facts to be claimed before deduction is made. So, A tax return preparer should make relevant inquiries to decide if the information given is correct as required by an "Internal Revenue Code" section or a regulation to claim either a deduction or a credit.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows,

The Waverly Company has budgeted sales for the year as follows:

Quarter sales in unit

1=12,000

2=14,000

3=18,000

4=16,000

The ending inventory of finished goods for each quarter should equal 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales in units. The finished goods inventory at the start of the year is 3,000 units. Scheduled production for the second quarter (in units) is:

a.17,500 units.

b.16,500 units.

c.15,000 units.

d.13,000 units.

Answer:

Production = 15000 Units

Option C is the correct answer

Explanation:

To calculate the scheduled production for the second quarter, we first need to find the opening and ending inventory for the third quarter. The ending inventory for each quarter will become the opening inventory for next quarter. It is mentioned in the question that the ending inventory in each quarter is equal to 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales. Then,

Ending Inventory First Quarter = 0.25 * 14000  =  3500 units

Ending Inventory Second Quarter = 0.25 * 18000  =  4500 units

The production of units in second quarter can be calculated as follows,

Budgeted Sales  =  Opening Inventory + Production - Closing Inventory

14000 = 3500 + Production - 4500

14000 + 4500 - 3500 = Production

Production = 15000 Units
