Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Refurbishing materials:

Variable cost= $600

Fixed costs= $18,800

Estimated cost= 600*35 + 18,800= $39,800

Actual cost= 600*32 + 18,800= $38,000

Zhang Industries budgets production of 400 units in June and 410 units in July. Each finished unit requires 5 pounds of raw mate
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $12,060.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Production in June = 400 units

Production in July = 410 units

Each unit required = 5 pounds

Cost per pound = $6

So, June required raw material = 400 units × 5 pounds = 2000 pounds

For July required raw material = 410 units × 5 pounds × 20% = 410 pounds

So, required total raw material for June = 2000 pounds + 410 pounds - 400 pounds ( already in inventory)

= 2010 pounds

So, the total cost required for raw material in June = 2010 pounds × $6

= $12,060

Hence, the budgeted cost of purchases for raw material K for June is $12,060.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

a) $14,600.

Explanation:

The computation of the company total assets are shown below:

= Cash balance + supplies balance + equipment balance

where,

Cash balance =  investment amount + borrowed amount - paid amount for equipment

= $6,200 + $3,200 - $2,120

= $7,280

And, the other item values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $7,280 + $1,120 + $6,200

= $14,600

"Between 2000 and 2008, the price of oil increased from $30 per barrel to $140 per barrel, and the price of gasoline in the Unit
KiRa [710]

Answer:

C) There was no price control on gasoline at the time.

Explanation:

During the 1970s the US government established a price ceiling on gasoline, but as all price ceilings set below the equilibrium price, it results in both a deadweight loss and a supply shortage.

Since the price is "too cheap", then the quantity demanded will be more than the quantity supplied. Rising costs in gasoline production made things worst, since suppliers were constantly reducing their supply of gasoline, while consumer demand was constantly increasing.
