Answer:

Each product will be allocated with 38.30 dollars of manufacturing overhead as both takes 0.81 DLH

Explanation:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

To calcualte the overhead rate we need to distribute the expected cost over the expected cost driver, in this case, labor hours:

(39,000 + 8,000) x 0.81 DLH = 38,070 labor hous

$1,800,000 overhead / 38,070 DLH =  47,281323877

the overhead per hour is $47.28

overhead per product:

47,281323877 x 0.81 = 38,29787234 = <u><em>38.30</em></u>

In the ________, the perfectly competitive firm will react to profits by ________
ElenaW [278]

In the long run, perfectly competitive firms will react to profits by increasing production.

Firms in a perfectly competitive world earn zero profit in the long run. While firms can earn accounting profits in the long run, they cannot earn economic profits.

In the long run, perfectly competitive firms will react to profits by decreasing production. CORRECT: In the long run, perfectly competitive firms will respond to losses by exiting the market. In the long run, perfectly competitive firms will respond to losses by reducing production.

A perfectly competitive market achieves long‐run equilibrium when all firms are earning zero economic profits and when the number of firms in the market is not changing.

In the long run, profits and losses are eliminated because an infinite number of firms are producing infinitely divisible, homogeneous products. Firms experience no barriers to entry and all consumers have perfect information.

Keene, Inc. produces flash drives for computers, which it sells for $20 each. Each flash drive costs $6 of variable costs to mak
Maslowich

Answer:

D) It decreases about 16 units.

Explanation:

Currently Keene's break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin

total fixed costs = $5,600

contribution margin = selling price - contribution margin = $20 - $6 = $14

Keene's current break even point = $5,600 / $14 = 400 units

If Keene's variable costs decrease by 10%, the new contribution margin will be = $20 - $5.40 = $14.60

Keene's new break even point = $5,600 / $14.60 = 383.56 ≈ 384 units

this represents a 4% decrease (16 units less)
