Answer: Stratified random sampling
Explanation:
Given : The manager of the customer service division of a major consumer electric company is interested in determining whether the customers who have purchased a Blu-ray player made by the company over the past 12 months are satisfied with their products. If there are 4 different brands of Blu-ray players made by the company.
The best sampling strategy which we can use is stratified random sampling because it is not much costly and also it induces the efficiency . We can me different strata according to the 4 brands , then we can randomly select participants for the sample.
- Stratified random sampling is a method of probability sampling in which a researcher divides the entire population into multiple homogeneous groups known as strata and then he randomly select an sample members from each strata for research .
Answer:
Josefina is not maximizing her profits since she is making a loss of $0.25.
Explanation:
The marginal revenue is the total amount of revenue received from selling an additional unit of product while the marginal cost is the total cost incurred for producing an additional unit of product. The marginal cost and revenue can be compared to determine if producing and selling an additional unit is profitable or will cause a loss.
The profit/loss can be expressed as;
P/L=R-C
where;
P=profit
L=loss
R=total marginal revenue
C=total marginal cost
In our case;
P/L=unknown
R=marginal revenue per unit×number of units=1.50×1=$1.50
C=marginal cost per unit×number of units=$1.75×1=$1.75
replacing;
P/L=1.50-1.75=-$0.25
Since the marginal cost is greater than the marginal revenue, we can conclude that Josefina is making a loss of $0.25
Answer:
c) 48,000
Explanation:
<em>Equivalent Units</em>
To apportion cost between work in progress and completed units in a particular period, we use equivalent units. Equivalents units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between completed units and work in progress
<em>Equivalent Units = Degree of Completion × Units of products</em>
<em />
<em>Item units workings E.U</em>
Finished products 45,000 100% × 45,000 = 45,000
Closing WIP 5000 3/5 × 5000 = 3,000
Total equivalent unit 48,000
Equivalent unit for the conversion cost= 45000 +3000= 48,000

Please find the detailed explanation below.
Situation 1 and 2 have disclosure while situation 3 does not require any disclosure.
Explanation:
Situation 1. Accrual. The one-year warranty has created what is known as contingent liability. Contingent liability is a type of liability that is dependent on the outcome of some specific actions which has happened in the past. The eventual liability may or may not happen. But since the probable claim from the one-year warranty has been determined, it should be disclosed. But if the claim cannot be determined, it shouldn't be disclosed.
Situation 2. Since this contract happened before the issuance of financial statement and the amount of loss from this contract can be reasonably estimated or determined, then it must be disclosed and the likely amount must also be disclosed. This disclosure will be under 'note to the financial statement'.
Situation 3. This is a self insurance and self insurance is not an insurance. There is no contingent liability in this situation. Also, there is no accident, no injury. Hence, this is no disclosure here.
