What happens when a price floor is imposed above the equilibrium price of a good?

PolarNik [594]3 years ago

<span>Price floors can have differing effects depending on other government policies. If the government agrees to purchase a specific maximum of unsold products at the price floor, it incentivizes a business to increase supply or at least to stay in the industry despite slow sales. Many governments do this for areas they see as strategically or politically significant, such as agriculture, or to prevent what they consider to be unfairly low prices of its products. If a foreign government sets a price floor for coffee beans, for example, and then agrees to buy the surplus up to a certain amount, it encourages growers to maintain their operations by placing an effective hedge against price fluctuations. If you own a small coffee shop, these price floors mean that you’re more likely to be able to find your imported beans, but you’ll pay more for them</span>

Fixed Overhead Spending and Volume Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $20,000  Favorable (F).

Explanation:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = $305,000 -  $300,000

                                                              = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Fixed Overheads at Actual Production  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = ($5.00 × 64,000) - $300,000

                                                              = $320,000 - $300,000

                                                              = $20,000  Favorable (F)

Tore Company's records reveal the following information regarding its inventory. Beginning inventory was $100,000 at cost and 16
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

$150,000

Explanation:

Ending inventory, the value of goods available for sale at the end of the accounting period, plays an important role in reporting the financial status of a company and can best be figured out using the equation,

Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Net Purchases - Cost of Goods Sold (or COGS)

Beginning Inventory = $160,000 in retail

Net purchases = $500,000 in retail +$10,000 Markups

Cost of goods sold = $500,000

So, End Inventory = 160,000+500,000+10,000-500,000

End Inventory = $150,000
