On February 1, a seller paid $1,140 in annual property tax for the current calendar year. He sold the house with the closing set
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$288

Explanation:

Since the total property taxes for the year are $1,140, to find the property tax per month we have to divide by 12 ⇒ $1,140 / 12 = $95 per month

The seller is responsible for paying the property taxes during 3 months and 1 day, to find out the amount for that 1 day we divide the monthly tax by 30 = $3.17 per day.

the total seller's credit = ($95 x 3) + $3 = $285 + $3 = $288

*The seller's credit includes all the expenses that must be paid by the seller, while the seller's debit includes all the money that he receives.

<h3>When the creation of a thing incurs external expenses, the?</h3>
  • An external cost occurs when the production or use of a goods or service imposes a cost (negative effect) on a third party.
  • If a good has external costs connected with it (negative externalities), the social costs will be larger than the private cost.
  • Market failure may occur in the presence of external expenses. This is because the free market frequently ignores the existence of external expenses.
  • The cost to a third party of consuming/producing one more unit is known as the external marginal cost (XMC).

Fed [463]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each unit of output requires 0.52 direct labor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 1,700 units in April and 1,600 units in May. The company is committed to paying its direct labor workforce for at least 960 hours a month.

We need to calculate the total number of hours required each month.

April:

Direct labor hours= 1,700 units* 0.52= 884 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640

May:

Direct labor hours= 1,600 units* 0.52= 832 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640

Mott Company's sales mix is 3 units of A, 2 units of B, and 1 unit of C. Selling prices for each product are $34, $44, and $54,
Airida [17]

The break even point in composite units is 5000 units.

Break even point

The Break-even point  is calculated by dividing the fixed cost by the contribution margin per unit.

For this sales mix, the contribution margin per unit is the aggregate of each contribution margin. Contribution margin is calculated by subtracting variable cost from the selling price  

Contribution margin  for A is $20- $12 = $8  x 3 units

Contribution margin for B is  $ 30 - $18 = $12 x 2 units

Contribution margin for C is $40 -$24= $16  x 1 unit

Total contribution margin per unit will be

(8 x 3) x (12 x 2 ) x( $16 x 1)= $64

Break-even point = $320,000 /64
