Answer:

Supply Inelastic: Demand shift will have <u>more</u><u> </u>effect on <u>price</u> than on quantity

Explanation:

Demand and supply reflect buyers & sellers - buying & selling tendencies.

Demand curve & supply curve are downward sloping & upward sloping respectively (∵law of demand , law of supply) & EQUILIBRIUM is where Demand = Supply & Demand, Supply curves intersect.

Elasticity is demand / supply responsiveness to price change. Inelastic Supply doesn't respond to price. It has a vertical curve parallel to y axis (unlike usual upward sloping curve).

Demand change shifts downward sloping demand curve - 1. Rightwards if Increase in Demand, 2. Leftwards if Decrease in Demand. 1st case (↑Dd) with inelastic supply leads to increase in price & no change in quantity, at new equilibrium. 2nd case (↓Dd) with inelastic supply leads to decrease in price & no change in quantity, at new equilibrium.

So, Change in Demand with Inelastic Supply changes only Equilibrium Price & not Equilibrium Quantity.

Question Continuation

1. The number of physical units that were transferred out and the number that are in ending work in process inventory.

2. The number of equivalent units for materials and conversion for the month.

3. The cost per equivalent unit of materials and conversion for the month.

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

1. .

Units to account for is given as:

Beginning (Work in Process) ------_--------- $2,000

Unit Started at the beginning (April) ----- $28,000

Total = $2,000 + $28,000 = $30,000

Calculating total units accounted for.

Units completed and transferred out ------- $23,000

Ending (Work in Process) ------------------------ $7,000

Total Units = $23,000 + $7,000 = $30,000

2.

Units completed and transferred out

=> $23,000 (units) => 100% (% Materials) => $23,000 (EUP Materials) => 100% (% Conversion) => $23,000 (EUP Conversion)

Units of ending work in process

=> $7,000 (units) => 100% (% Materials) => $7,000 (EUP Materials) => 40% (% Conversion) => $2,800 (EUP Conversion)

Equivalent Units of Production

=> $30,000 (units) => 100% (% Materials) => $30,000 (EUP Materials) => (% Conversion) => $25,800 (EUP Conversion)

3.

Cost per equivalent units of production

Cost of beginning work in process => $45,000 (Direct materials) => $56,320 (conversion)

Cost incurred during this period => $375,000 (Direct materials) => $341,000 (conversion)

Total Cost => $420,000 (Direct materials) => $397,320 (conversion)

Equivalent Units of Production => $30,000 (Direct materials) => $25,800 (conversion)

Cost per equivalent unit of production => $14.00 (Direct materials) => 15.40 (conversion)

Cost per equivalent unit of production is calculated by Total Cost / Equivalent unit of production
