AlekseyPX

Answer: Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000)

Explanation:

Out of the 4 options presented, 2 involves cash coming into the company which are; Sells $5,000 (000) of their Long-term assets and Liquidates the entire inventory. As these 2 bring cash into the company, they will not make Baldwin need an emergency loan.

The other 2 however, take money from the company being; Retires $20,000 (000) in long-term debt and Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000). Retirement of long-term debt will have been in the budget for a long time so there would be no need for emergency funding.

The Purchase of the assets on the other hand has a less chance of being budgeted for than the long term debt retirement and being such a significant outflow, could expose Baldwin to the risk of needing to seek emergency loans.

Naddik [55]

Answer:

The net operating income will c. increase by $7,000

Explanation:

The formula to calculate net operating income is =

Gross income - Operating expenses

If Sales are equal to 200 units and the payment for a salesperson is

a flat salary of $5,000

Gross income = 200 * $80 = $16,000

and

Operating expenses = $5,000

Net operating income = $16,000 - $5,000 = $11,000

If we rise the Sales to 300 units then the payment for the salesperson will be 20$ * 300 = $6,000.

Gross income = 300 * $80 = $24,000

and

Operating expenses = $6,000

Net operating income = $24,000 - $6,000 = $18,000

$18,000 - $11,000 = $7,000

Explanation:

Activity based costing is the process by which a business allocates cost on the basis of the number of times an activity is carried out.

For example if different departments use a photocopier to copy 3,000, 5,000, and 2,000 sheets. The total cost will be allocated based on amount of activity per department.

In this instance

Total number of boards= 36,000

Inspections= 5% of the total

Inspection cost= $15 per hour

Percentage that will be inspected= 0.05 * 36,000 = $1,800

It takes one minute to inspect each board, there are 60 minutes in one hour. So 60 boards are inspected in one hour.

Number of inspection hours= 1,800 ÷ 60= 30 hours

Total cost of inspection= Cost per hour * Number of hours

Total cost of inspection= 15 * 30= $450
