Answer:
a. $197,600
b. $163,400
c. $108,600
Explanation:
a. Manufacturing margin = Sales - Variable cost of goods sold
= $380,000 - $182,000
= $197,600
b. Contribution margin = Manufacturing margin - Variable selling and administrative expenses
= $197,600 - $34,200
= $163,400
c. Income from operations = Contribution margin - Fixed manufacturing costs - Fixed selling and administrative expenses
= $163,400 - $57,000 - $2,800
= $108,600
Answer:

The reason for Sarah to want to use standard costs to compare with her actual costs is:
A) Management can evaluate the differences between standard costs and actual costs to focus on correcting the cost variances.
Explanation:
Standard costs provide a control technique for evaluating the Sole Purpose Shoe Company's performance at three levels: a standard performance level, a measure of actual performance, and a measure of the difference (variance) between standard and actual costs. Sarah will use the variance resulting from the comparison of standard costs with actual costs to measure the non-financial performance of the entity.
Answer:
Rest of question:
... equals marginal cost.
Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.
As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.
This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.
