Answer:

The correct answer is A fixed cost structure offers greater risk but higher opportunity for profitability than does a variable cost structure.

Explanation:

By establishing a fixed cost structure, higher levels of profitability can be achieved, which can serve to ensure the organization's overhead, although it is not always possible to achieve these levels taking into account market behavior. In the case of variable costs, it will be very difficult to take advantage of the production, because due to their changing condition they are simply adjusted to a specific period or time, and the profits remain constant during that time.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25

Explanation:

Variable direct materials cost per unit............................ 5.50

Variable direct labor cost per unit.................................... 7.65

Variable factory overhead cost per unit .........................2.25

Variable selling and administrative cost per unit........... .90

TOTAL VARIABLE COST PER UNIT..................................16.3

TOTAL VARIABLE COST = $16.3*45000 units = $733,500

Fixed factory overhead cost $82,000

Fixed selling and administrative costs 45,000

TOTAL COST = $ 860,500

1. Cost per unit = 860,500/45000 units = $19.12

2. Mark up = 12% * 800,000 = $96,000/45000 units = $2.13

mark up = 2.13/19.12 = 11.14%

3. Therefore selling price per unit = $19.12+$2.13 = $21.25

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

: $4,610

Explanation:

The allowance for uncollectible accounts should be 2% of accounts receivable. So first we wil find out the 2% of $268,000.

($268,000 x 2%) = $5,360

Then we will subtract the $750 allowance for uncollectible accounts before any adjustments.

$5,360 - $750 = $4,610

The amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts would be: $4,610.

Cost of Goods Sold (70%)     $1,568,000          $1,664,600      $1,764, 000

<u>Inventory Budget</u>

                                                  October                       November

Base Amount                          $420,000                       $420,000
