Answer:

The company should make the bicycle seats.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of seats to be made = 10,000

Variable cost = 80,000

Fixed cost = 10,000

Outside source cost for seats = $ 8.50 per seat

Since, the fixed cost of the seats cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the deciding factor will only be the variable cost.

Thus,

contribution margin per unit seat if made by own

= ( Variable cost / Number of seats )

Or

= 80,000 / 10,000

or

= $ 8

now,

the making the seats by own is $ 0.5 cheaper.

Hence, the company should make the bicycle seats.

Coupon payment  = $100,000 x 12% = $120 annually = $60 semiannually

Interest Expense for the year = Interest Paid on June 30 + Interest Paid on December 31

Interest Expense for the year = $60 + $60 = $120

Gamma Company adjusts its accounts at the end of each month. The following information has been assembled in order to prepare th
Tresset [83]

Answer; c. $14,000

Explanation

On December 1, rent had been paid for 3 months. At a rate of $7,000 a month this will come to;

= 7,000 * 3

= $21,000

The Prepaid rent account will reduce every month by the rent due for that month. The balance on the Prepaid account as at December 31 will therefore have reduced by one month from December 1.

= 21,000 - 7,000

= $14,000
