AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

$45,600 and yes

Explanation:

The computation of the contribution to profit from the special order is shown below:

= Sales revenue - Material cost - Labor cost

where,

Sales revenue = $3,300 × 40 slabs = $132,000

Material cost = $1,440 × 40 slabs = $57,600

Labor cost = = $7200 × 40 slabs = $28,800

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $132,000 - $57,600 - $28,800

= $45,600

The material and labor cost is a variable cost and the same is taken in the computation part

So, it should accept the special order

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

$700

Explanation:

If a bond is issued at a lower price than the face value of the bond, then the bond is issued on the discount. This discount is amortized over the bond's life. This amortization will be expensed as Interest Expense.

Discount = Face value - Issuance price = $15,000 - $14,700 = $300

Bond's Life = 6 years

Amortization of discount = $300 / 6 = $50 annually = $25 semiannually

Coupon Payment = Face Value x coupon Rate = $15,000 x 9% = $1.350 annually = $675 semiannually

Interest Expense Includes both the coupon payment and discount amortization for the period.

Interest Expense = $675 + $25 = $700

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

A. supply curve shifts to the left

Explanation:

An increase in the prices of inputs from $4 to $6 shows economic problems that include a reduction in capital stock, labor, and an increased unemployment rate. This can also give room for inflation.

This increase shows that due to shortage in labor supply, it now costs more to produce a product.

Due to all the above mentioned reasons, the supply curve of both long run and short run supply curves shifts left.

Cheers.
