Answer:

$81 approx

Explanation:

Contribution margin refers to sales receipts in excess of variable costs incurred. This represents contribution from a product earned which is after variable costs have been incurred.

<u>Product A</u>

Selling price per unit = $88

Variable cost per unit = $38

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution margin per unit = $88 - $38 = $50

Similarly, for <u>product B</u>,

Contribution margin per unit = $143 - $47= $96

<u>Products         Weights            Contribution        Weighted contribution</u>

A                       0.32                    50                            16

B                       <u>0.68</u>                    96                            <u>65.28</u>

                         1.00                                                     81.28

Hence, weighted average contribution margin is $81.28 or $81 approx

Blake Company purchased two identical inventory items. The item purchased first cost $18.00, and the item purchased second cost
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

c. Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses weighted average than if FIFO were used

Explanation:

To check which answer is correct, we simply evaluate each option step by step.

<u>Option A</u>

Gross margin is the difference between selling price and cost.

Under FIFO gross margin is $14. (32 -18 =14)

Under LIFO gross margin is $13. (32-19 = 13)

Thus statement is incorrect as gross margin is higher if FIFO is used.

<u />

<u>Option B</u>

If FIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $19 as ending inventory will contain product purchased later that is at $19. In contrast, if LIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $18. Thus the statement becomes incorrect that it will be the same.

<u />

<u>Option C</u>

The ending inventory under FIFO is $19.

The ending inventory under LIFO is $18

The endng inventory under AVCO or weighted average will be, 18+19 / 2 = 18.5

Thus the statement is correct as the ending inventory under weighted average $18.5 is lower than ending inventory under FIFO $19. So, C is the correct Answer.

A proposed new project has projected sales of $132,000, costs of $66,000, and depreciation of $13,500. The tax rate is 30%. Calc
Verizon [17]

Answer:Operating cash flow $ _50,250__

Yes, the answer is same in each case

Explanation:

a)   EBIT + Depreciation - Tax

= ($132,000-$66,000-$13,500) + $13,500 - Tax

= $52,500 + $13,500-(30% x $52,500)

=$52,500 + $13,500-15,750

EBIT + Depreciation - Tax=$50,250

b)Top down OCF = EBIT - (EBIT x Tax) + Depreciation  

Top down OCF = $52,500  - ($52,500 x 30%) +  $13,500  

Top down OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Top down OCF =$50,250

Tax shield OCF =(Sales - Cost)(1-t) + Depreciation (t)

Tax shield OCF = ($132,000-$66,000) (1-0.30) + ($13,500 x0.30)  

Tax shield OCF =$66,000 x 0.7 + 4,050

Tax shield OCF = 46,200+ 4,050

Tax shield OCF = $50,250

Bottom Up OCF = Net Income + Dep

Bottom Up OCF =($132,000-$66,000-$13,500 ) - Tax ) + Dep

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500-(0.3 x $52,500 )+ $13,500

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Bottom Up OCF =$50,250

Making journal entries Assume that during the month of April the production report of Austin Adhesives, Inc., in E8-10 revealed
Alex_Xolod [135]

Missing Information:

The normal capacity of  is 40,000 direct labor hours and 20,000 units per month. A finished unit requires 6 lb of materials at an estimated cost of $2 per pound. The estimated cost of labor is $10.00 per hour.

Answer:

Raw materials Inventory   260,000 debit  

D:M price variance                2,600 debit

     Account Payable                   257,400 credit

--to record the purchase ---

WIP-Inventory          248,000 debit

DM quality variance    2,000 debit

       Raw materials Inventory   250,000 debit

--to record requisition of materials--

WIP-Inventory    420,000 debit

D:L rate variance    1,640 debit

    Wages Payables             411,640 credit

    DL efficiency variance     10,000 credit

--to record the charge of labor into WIP--

Explanation:

130,000 pounds x $1.98 (actual)      = $257,400‬

130,000 pounds x $2.00 (standard) = $260,000

variance 2,600 favorable

Quantity Variance:

actual: 125,000 x $2 = 250,000

standard:  21,000 x 6 = 124,000 pounds x $2 = 248,000

variance: 2,000 unfavorable  

41,000 hours x $10.04 each = $411,640

41,000 hours x $10.00 each = $410,000

rate variance 1,640 unfavorable

efficiency variance:

21,000 x 2 hours = 42,000 hours x $10 = 420,000

actual 41,000 x $10 = 410,000

favorable 10,000

sveta [45]

Most likely, Shaq will ask that the court overturn the award based on the acceptance of the bribe by Pat.

Option - b

<u>Explanation: </u>

Arbitration is a method to solve quarrels outside the court. The quarrel will be decided by the arbitral tribunal which gives the arbitration award. This award is lawfully compulsory from both the parties and enforceable in the courts.

The court can impose but these awards will be overturned by the court only in special cases. The court will declare void, or ignore to accept an arbitration award if it is a fraud product or misbehavior by the arbitrator.
