makkiz [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: B) Only materials costs are relevant

Explanation:

When choosing between alternatives, the main decider is the difference in costs. The costs that are different are the ones to decide whether a company takes on a project as it will signal the financial viability of a project.

In both alternatives, the Processing costs remain at $37,000 therefore the alternative chosen is irrelevant to these costs as they will be incurred regardless of the company's choice. They are therefore not to be considered.

Material costs on the other hand vary by the alternatives and so should be considered.

<span>If a competitive firm can sell a ton of steel for $500 a ton and it has an average variable cost of $400 a ton, and the marginal cost is $600 a ton, the firm should reduce its output.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

1.- 35,000 helment x 0.6 kilograms = 21,000 STD quantity

2.- 21,000 kilograms x $8 per kilogram = $168,000

3.- 9,000 F

4.- 12,000 U

Explanation:

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost  $8.00

actual cost  $7.60

quantity 22,500

(8.00 - 7.60) \times 22,500 = DM \: price \: variance

difference  $0.40

The actual cost for each kilogram is lower than expected. This means the copamny saved cash in the purchase. This variance is favorable.

saved 0.40 per kilograms x 22,500 purchased

price variance  $9,000.00

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity\: variance

std quantity 21000.00

actual quantity 22500.00

std cost  $8.00

(21,000 - 22,500) \times 8 = DM \: quantity\: variance

difference -1500.00

The actual quantity was higher than expected, this variance will be unfavorable

1,500 extra kilograms x $8 each =

quantity variance  $(12,000.00)

The difference between a secured loan and an unsecured loan is blank
ella [17]
A secured loan has claim on assets in case the lender defaults. For example, a home buyer takes out a loan (secured against the home) with a bank to buy home. If the home buyer can't make repayments (or even goes bankrupt), the bank can sell the home to recover their lost money.

An unsecured loan does not have claim on any assets. All else being equal, an unsecured loan has higher interest rate.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

A. $816,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the net sales is shown below:

= Total sales - sales returned

where,

Sales returned = Total sales × sales return percentage

                        = $850,000 × 4%

                        = $34,000

And, the total sales is $850,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $850,000 - $34,000

= $816,000
