Answer:

The answer is: David should make pizza and John should make pasta.

Explanation:

John is more efficient at producing both pizza and pasta, but considering he can only make one at a time we calculate David´s productivity compared to John´s.

David is 80% as productive as John in making pizza, and only 75% as productive in making pasta.

David should be in charge of making pizza because his productivity is closest to John´s.

maxonik [38]

a. 50 cents

Contribution margin per unit is price per unit- variable cost per unit

1.75 - ($50,000/40,000 units)

1.75 - 1.25 = $ .50

b. $8750

Margin of safety is the expected sales - break even sales

(45,000 units * $1.75 per unit) - (40,000 *1.75)

78,750 - 70,000 = $8750

The following is a condensed version of the comparative balance sheets for Pearl Corporation for the last two years at December
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Balance Sheets    

2020          2019                Deviation  

$292,050 $128,700  $163,350        Cash

$163,350   Cash Flow Ind Method  

$264,000   Net Income  

$28,050   Depreciation  

-$49,500   Dividends  

$36,300   Investments  

$8,250           Accounts Receivable  

-$28,050   Current Liabilities  

-$95,700   Property and Equipment  

Explanation:

To prepare the statement of cashflow it's necessary to calculate the difference between the balance on each year.

First we need the value of the Net Income and Depreciation of the year as initial value of the cash flow ($264,000+$28,050),  

then we deduct the amount of dividends paid during the year (-$49,500).  

Then we begin to calculate the Assets section, everytime that the Assets are higher than the past year we have to put money  

from the cash flow to compensate the assets increase and vice versa, with exception of the Cash Accounts that we are calculating.

Per Example: Accounts Receivable +$8,250 and Investments +$36,300.

Property decreased Cash flow which means that we buy some assets (-$97,500 )

Then with the Liabilities we do the same but in this case an increase in the liabilities means we have more money to our cash flow,

per example, an increase in the accounts payable means that we paid less to our suppliers so we have the money in the cash accounts.  

Total Current Liabilities decrease $28,050 , we paid more liabilities than the past year, so we have to use cash.  

To complete the cash flow statement  it's necessary that the amount of the statement be equal to the deviation in the cash account between the past year and the current one

__________This import tax was meant to replace the earlier "Tariff of Abominations", but it was widely disliked by southern merc
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Tariff of 1832

Explanation:

The Tariff of 1832 was enacted to replace the 1828 import tariffs commonly known as Tariffs of Abomination. Most southern states did not like it, but its greatest opposition came from South Carolina since its economy depended greatly in foreign trade. Back then America's largest export was cotton produced by southern states.

Due to South Carolina's extreme opposition, it was replaced by the Compromise Tariff of 1833. This last tariff would gradually decrease the tax rates until they fell back to 1816 levels, which was approximately 20%.

The Nullification Crisis refers to a legal process carried out in South Carolina that determined that federal taxes, specifically import tariffs were unconstitutional and shouldn't apply to them. The problem is that the Supreme Court decides what is unconstitutional or not, not a state court.

Which of the following costs is a mixed cost?
koban [17]

Answer:

3. Rental costs of $5,000 per month plus $.30 per machine hour of use

Explanation:

Mixed cost is the one which has both the factors, variable and fixed.

Sometimes, the segregation is also difficult, when the total cost is given.

In the chosen option also, there is a fixed cost involved that is monthly expense of $5,000.

Further for each hour of machine used the cost increases and is $0.30 per hour.

That is variable as the total will depend upon the number of hours the machine is used.

All the other three are either completely fixed like salary, and depreciation, or either completely variable like electricity cost.
