Answer with Explanation:

1. Marginal Cost per Unit

As we know:

Marginal Cost per Unit = Change in Cost / Change in Quantity Bought

= ($3580 - $2280) / (500 - 100)

= $3.25 per Unit

2. Fixed Cost to setup

The fixed cost would be $2280 because it is the cost that is required for setting up the kiosk. The cost $3580 is not relevant because it depends on the demand of the product. The least cost to set up kiosk is $2280.

3. Cost Function

Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost

As we know that:

Variable Cost = Marginal cost per unit * Number of units = $3.25 * x = 3.25x

For Fixed cost $2280

By putting this value in the above equation, we have:

Total Cost = $2280 + 3.25x

C(x) = $2280 + 3.25x

And

For Fixed cost $3580

C(x) = $3580 + 3.25x

4. Revenue Function

Total Revenue = Selling Price per Unit  *  Total Units

Here

Selling price is $8 and total units are "x"

By putting values, we have:

Total Revenue = $8 * x

R(x) = 8x

5. Breakeven Point For $2280 and $3580

As we know that

Breakeven Point = Fixed Cost / Contribution Per unit

For Fixed Cost $2280:

Breakeven Point = $2280 / ($8 - $3.25)

= 480 Units

For Fixed Cost $2280:

Breakeven Point = $3580 / ($8 - $3.25)

= 754 Units

6. Profit Function

For Fixed Cost $2280:

Profit = Revenue Function - Cost Function

P(x) = 8x  -  ($2280 + 3.25x)

P(x) = 8x - $2280 - 3.25x

P(x) = 4.75x - $2280

For Fixed Cost $3580:

P(x) = 4.75x - $3580

7. Claire's Profit if she sells 1,000 bottles

Using the above profit function for fixed cost $2280, we have:

P(x) = 4.75x - $2280

Here x is 1,000 units, which means:

P(x) = 4.75 * 1,000   -   $2280

P(x) = $4,750 - $2280 = $2,470

Using the above profit function for fixed cost $3,580, we have:

P(x) = 4.75x - $3,580

Here x is 1,000 units, which means:

P(x) = 4.75 * 1,000   -   $3,580

P(x) = $4,750 - $3,580 = $1,170

Beech Soda, Inc. uses a perpetual inventory system. The company's beginning inventory of a particular product and its purchases
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

the cost of goods sold to be recorded at January 14 is: $230 .

Explanation:

LIFO (Last in First out) method, assumes that the last goods purchased are the <em>first ones</em> to be issued to the final customer.

This means that valuation of inventory will begin using the value of the <em>earliest</em> goods purchased.

The Cost of goods sold is calculated as follows :

Cost of goods sold : 9 units × $14 = $126

                                  13 units × $8 = $104

                                  Total              = $230

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The total cost of the department’s ending work in process inventory is $684,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost is shown below:

= Material cost + conversion cost

where,

Material cost = (Transferred units + ending work in progress) × material cost per unit

= (68,000 units + 12,000 units) × $4

= $320,000

Conversion  cost = (Transferred units + ending work in progress × percentage of completion) × material cost per unit

= (68,000 units + 12,000 units × 40%) × $5

= $364,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $32,000 + $364,000

= $684,000
