Answer:

$10,965

Explanation:

Computation for the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing

First step is to find the Units in ending inventory

Using this formula

Units in ending inventory = Units in beginning inventory + Units produced−Units sold

Let plug in the formula

Units in ending inventory= 0 units + 4,900 units−4,050 units

Units in ending inventory = 850 units

Last step is to find the Value of ending inventory under variable costing

Using this formula

Value of ending inventory under variable costing = Unit in ending inventory × Variable production cost

Let plug in the formula

Value of ending inventory under variable costing= 850 units × $12.90 per unit

Value of ending inventory under variable costing = $10,965

Therefore the dollar value of the ending inventory under variable costing would be $10,965

vivado [14]

Answer:

Stock value today = $1.21

Explanation:

Current Dividend = D ${_0}$ = $1.13

After 5 years that is D ${_6}$ = $0.50

Since expected growth = 0

Therefore

P ${_5}$ = D ${_6}$ / Ke = 0.5/18% = $2.77

Its present value will be $\frac{1}{(1 + 0.18){^5}} X 2.77$ = $1.21

Stock value today = $1.21

mote1985 [20]

Answer:please refer to the explanation section

Explanation:

The Question is incomplete. the question requires us to calculate minimum number of customers required to cover costs of promotions, to calculate the minimum number of customers required we need a price per customer. let us assume the price $6

Variable costs = $3.75

Fixed costs = $18000

Minimum Customers Required = Fixed costs/(Price - Variable cost)

Minimum Customers Required = 18000/6 - 3.75 = 8000

8000 customers are required

They will not change regardless of whether the good is sold before further processing or if it is sold after. They therefore do not matter in the decision to either process or sell and so are not considered.
