ere $200,000 (assume that this amount represents the total opportunity cost of these resources). During the year she received offers to work for other design firms. One offer would have paid her $120,000 per year and the other would have paid her $130,000 per year. Lashondra's economic profit is equal to:

Answer:

The answer is: $70,000

Explanation:

Economic profit is defined as the difference between the accounting profit earned from selling products or services and the opportunity costs (or implicit costs).

The formula used to calculate economic profit is:

accounting profit - implicit costs = economic profit

were accounting profit = total revenues - explicit costs

($400,000 - $200,000) - $130,000 = $70,000 Lashondra´s economic profit

arsen [322]

Answer:

A. Movement on the PPC

B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC

C. Less Concavity of PPC

Explanation:

Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).

  • It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
  • It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
  • Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.

a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)

b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.

c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.

Complete the balance sheet and sales information in the table that follows for J. White
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Sales $600,000

Cost of Goods Sold $450,000

Cash $28,000

Accounts payable $110,000

Accounts receivable $60,000

Inventory $120,000

Common Stock $140,000

Fixed Asset $192,000

Total Liabilities and equity $400,000

Explanation:

1.To compute the missing amount of sales, we must look for the data given that has something to do with sales. And the two data given that will give us the hint are the Asset turnover and the total asset.

ASSET TURNOVER = Net Sales / Total Asset

1.5 = Net Sales * $400,000

Net Sales = 1.5 * $400,000

Net Sales = $600,000

To check if the answer is correct:

$600,000 / $400,000 = 1.5 <em>which is equal to the data given</em>

<em />

2. The Sales has been computed above and Gross profit margin on sales is present, these are the hint we needed to compute the Cost of goods sold.

Sales  100%

<u>Less: Gross profit margin on sales 25%</u>

Cost of goods sold ratio on sales 75%

Therefore, $600,000 x 75% (ratio on sales) = $450,000

3.ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

It is impossible to compute the cash based on the data given without the accounts receivable. So, let's compute the accounts receivable beforehand.

The additional hint that we have is the Days sales outstanding (based on 365-day year).

  • Days sales outstanding = Accounts receivable / (Annual credit sales / 365 days)
  • 36.5 days = Accounts receivable / ($600,000 / 365)
  • Accounts receivable = 36.5 * ($600,000 / 365)
  • Accounts receivable = $60,000

<em>To check our answer:</em>

<em>$60,000 / ($600,000 / 365)</em>

<em>$60,000 / 1,643.84</em>

<em>36.5 days</em>

<em />

4. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE

Next missing item that we will compute is the accounts payable. The hint that we have that is related to the computation of accounts payable is the Liability to asset ratio.

FORMULA :

Liability to asset ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets

40% = Total Liabilities / $400,000

Total Liabilities = 40% * $400,000

Total liabilities = $160,000

To Check:

<em>$160,000 / $400,000 = 40% which is equal to the data given</em>

<em>Next Step, Compute accounts payable (the only current liability account in the given partial income statement). Long term debt is the only non-current liability on the data given, which means it is the only account that is included in the total liability of $160,000.</em>

<em />

So, $160,000 less $50,000 = $110,000 (accounts payable)

5. CASH

We can now compute the cash based on the accounts already computed above. The additional hint that we have is the quick ratio. Quick ratio is the quotient of Cash & cash equivalent plus Marketable securities (which is not present in the data given, therefore ignore) plus the accounts receivable over the current liability.

Computation:

0.80 = (Cash + Marketable security + Accounts receivable) / current liability

0.80 = (Cash + Accounts receivable) / $110,000

Cash + Accounts receivable = 0.80 * $110,000

Cash + Accounts receivable = 88,000

Cash + $60,000 = $88,000

Cash = $88,000 - $60,000

Cash = $28,000

6. INVENTORY

To compute the inventory, we need the inventory turn-over hint.

Inventory turn-over = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory

3.75 = $450,000 / Ave inventory

Average inventory = $450,000 / 3.75

Average inventory = $120,000

to check:

<em>$450,000 / $120,000 = 3.75 which is equal to the data given</em>

<em />

7. COMMON STOCK

Total asset = Liabilities + Equity

$400,000 = $160,000 +?

$400,000 - $160,000 = $240,000

Equity is composed of common stock and retained earnings. Therefore, $240,000 - $100,000 (Retained earnings) = $140,000 (common stock)

8. FIXED ASSET

It is the only asset account that is missing after we computed cash, accounts receivable and inventory. Therefore total assets less current assets equals fixed assets.

  • $400,000 - ($28,000 + $60,000 + $120,000)
  • $400,000 - $208,000
  • $192,000 (fixed assets)

9. TOTAL LIABILITIES AND EQUITY

Current liability + Non-current liability + Common stock + Retained earnings

$110,000 + $50,000 + $140,000 + $100,000

$400,000

The correct word for the blank space is: joint.

Explanation:

Joint demand refers to the demand for products and services that are dependent on each other. In such cases, those goods are complementary but they can be acquired separately if necessary. An example of goods with joint demand would be tea and sugar or a printer and ink.

If a special sales order is accepted for​ 8,100 widgets at a price of​ $39 per​ unit, and fixed costs increase by​ $13,000, how
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

D) Increase by $68,000

Explanation:

The computation of change in the operating income is shown below:

Sales ( 8,100 widgets × $39) $315,900

Less: Variable cost (8,100 widgets × $29) ($234,900)  

Contribution margin $81,000

Less: Increase in fixed assets -$13,000

Net income increased              $68,000

We simply applying the above format so that the change in the operating income could be find out. Since the net income is in positive so it shows an increment

Which of the following is false regarding the FIFO inventory method?
puteri [66]

Answer: All of the other answer choices are true.

Explanation:

FIFO simply refers to “First-In, First-Out” and the method assumes that the oldest goods that are in the inventory of a company have been sold first and therefore, the costs that are paid for them will be used for the calculation.

The following are true regarding the FIFO method:

• FIFO under a perpetual inventory system results in the same cost of goods sold as FIFO under a periodic inventory system.

• A company can choose to account for the flow of inventory using the FIFO method even if this doesn’t match the actual flow of its inventory.

• Perishable goods often follow an actual physical flow that is consistent with the FIFO method assumptions.

Therefore, the correct option is D as all are true.
