Answer:
c. cease production immediately, because it is incurring a loss.
Explanation:
When a business engages in production it looks to make profit. That is for the production price to be higher than cost incurred in producing the good.
However when the price is lower than the average variable cost as is indicated in the scenario then the firm needs to shut down production in the short term.
Factors that will adversely affect a firm in the short term are price, average total cost, and average variable cost.
Once price is less than average total cost or average variable cost it is better to stop production.

Answer: Prior period adjustment resulting from the correction of an error.
Explanation:

In changing to the acceptable principles, they are correcting that error and need to adjust prior periods for that error as well.
Answer:
-$5,500
Explanation:
The computation of the overall effect on the company net operating income is as follows:
New Variable cost per unit is
= $44 + $11
= $55
Now the new contribution margin per unit is
= $220 - $55
= $165
New unit Monthly sales is
= 7,000 units + 500 units
= 7,500
Now
New total contribution margin :
= 7,500 units × $165
= $1,237,500
And, the Current total contribution margin is
= 7,000 units × $176
= $1,232,000
So, the change would be
= $1,232,000 - $1,237,500
= -$5,500
