Hache Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing departmen

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production

Materials

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 50%) = 925

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials = 6,725

Conversion

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 20%) = 370

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Costs = 6,170

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent units of Production

Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,700 + $ 91,000) ÷ 6,725

= $14.825

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,500 + $ 126,300) ÷ 6,170

= $21.848

Calculation of cost of ending work in process inventory

Materials ( 925 × $14.825) = $13,713.12

Conversion Cost ( 370 × $21.848) = $8,083.76

Total = $21,796.88

Thus,

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797.

A product sells for $5, and has unit variable costs of $3. This product accounts for $20,000 in annual sales, out of the firm's

Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.1333

Explanation:

Given that,

Selling price = $5

Variable cost = $3

Annual sales = $20,000

Total sales = $60,000

Contribution margin:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $5 - $3

= $2

Number of units sold:

= Annual sales ÷ Selling price

= $20,000 ÷ $5

= 4,000 units

Total contribution sales:

= Number of units sold × Contribution margin per unit

= 4,000 units × $2

= $8,000

Weighted contribution:

= Total contribution sales ÷ Total sales

= $8,000 ÷ $60,000

= 0.1333

c) Explain ONE way in which the adoption of laissez-faire economic policies led to an increase in the share of global manufactur

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Laissez faire economics advocates for less government regulation and intervention. Extreme laissez faire views dislike all types of taxes and controls. Of course something like that will never happen, but different economic policies favor certain laissez faire views.

For example, during the 1800s, many politicians believed that business owners were entitled to exploit their workers in order to make higher profits. As a result of these types of policies, 14 or 16 hour long labor days were common, no safety regulations existed, and the wages were not high. Since governments didn't regulate labor markets, businesses were able to benefit form this and increase total production.
