s to make sure her family members meet their daily nutritional requirements. Peg can buy two foods. Food 1 sells for $7 per pound and, each pound contains 3 units of vitamin A and 1 units of vitamin C. Food 2 sells for $1 per pound, and each pound contains 1 unit of each vitamin. Each day, the family needs at least 12 units of vitamin A and 6units of vitamin C.

seropon [69]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Total dividends = $45,000 (Paid in 2010 and 2011)

common stock outstanding = 20,000 shares

Preferred dividend:

= No. of shares × Par value × 5%

= 5,000 × $100 × 5%

= $25,000

Dividends received by the common stockholders in 2011:

= Total dividends - Preferred dividend

= $90,000 - $75,000

= $15,000

Which of the following is an example that critics of absorption costing may use to show that its use may generate unwanted manag
dlinn [17]

Answer:

D. All of the above.

Explanation:

Absorption costing is the method in which cost is charged on the basis of the actual expenses and facilities absorbed ion the production.

This basically charges usually more cost, in comparison to activity based costing.

In this manner since cost charged is more, the profit for the company is reduced. Accordingly the managers then prefer to produce as much as they can.

The main focus of management is for production.

Even in case this requires maintenance they put the resources into production rather than maintenance.

Thus, all of the statements are true.
