IgorC [24]

Answer:

The explanation is below

Explanation:

A. Shutdown point is achieved when price equal AVC. when price lowers than the AVC, firm shutdown.

VC = q^2

AVC = q

So,

P = q is the shutdown point.

B. For profit maximizing level of output,

P = MR = MC

500 = 20 + 2q

q = 240 units

So, profit maximization level of output = 240 units

C. Firm level supply curve = MC curve above the shutdown point

Number of firms = 5

So,

Industry supply curve = 10*MC = 200+20Q

Industry supply curve = 200+20Q

It shows that MC curve above the shutdown point is supply curve.

Doss [256]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

1) Direct materials are those materials and supplies that are consumed during the manufacture of a product, and which are directly identified with that product.

Direct material= Thread + Premium quality cotton material + Buttons

Direct material= 1,000 + 42,000 + 750

Direct material= $43,750

2) Direct labor is production or service labor that is assigned to a specific product, cost center, or work order. 

Direct labor= Wages paid to seamstresses + Wages paid to cutters Direct labor= 75,000 + 50,000

Direct labor= $125,000

3) Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured.

Manufacturing overhead= Factory rent + Utilities for factory + Cutting room supervisor's salary + Factory insurance + Depreciation on sewing machines

Manufacturing overhead= 42,000 + 22,000 + 30,000 + 15,000 + 6,000

Manufacturing overhead= $115,000

4) Total manufacturing costs= 43,750 + 125,000 + 115,000

Total manufacturing costs= $283,750

5) Prime cost= direct material + direct labor

Prime cost= 43,750 + 125,000

Prime cost= $168,750

6) Conversion cost= direct labor + MOH

Conversion cost= 125,000 + 115,000

Conversion cost= $240,000

7) Period costs are not directly tied to the production process. Overhead or sales, general, and administrative (SG&A) costs are considered period costs. SG&A includes costs of the corporate office, selling, marketing, and the overall administration of company business.

Period costs= Company advertising + Depreciation on salespersons' vehicles + President's salary

Period costs= 18,000 + 25,000 + 75,000

Period costs= $118,000
