Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Activity cost pools:
Direct labor $ 10 per direct labor-hour
Machine processing $ 3 per machine-hour
Machine setups $ 45 per setup
Production orders $ 150 per order
Shipments $ 115 per shipment
Product sustaining $ 750 per product Activity
Total Expected Activity K425:
Number of units produced per year 200
Direct labor-hours 1,075
Machine-hours 2,400
Machine setups 13
Production orders 13
Shipments 26
Product sustaining 1
Total Expected Activity M67:
Number of units produced per year 2,000
Direct labor-hours 50
Machine-hours 40
Machine setups 1
Production orders 1
Shipments 1
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH K425= 1,075*10 + 3*2,400 + 45*13 + 150*13 + 115*26 + 750= $24,225
Allocate MOH M67= 10*50 + 3*40 + 45*1 + 150*1 + 115*1= $930
Answer:
Differential income from the special order= $127,000
Explanation:
A company should accept a special order where the order generates additional contribution. i.e where the special order sales exceeds all relevant cost.

Answer:
$3,667.44
Explanation:
The amount you would be willing to pay today can be determined by finding the present value of the cash flows
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $25
Cash flow in year 5 = $25 + $5000
I = 7%
Present value = $3,667.44
To find the PV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Answer:
U.S. Tax Burden on Cola:
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ___$3______ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Explanation:
The tax burden on consumers, which is represented by the difference in the price of cola from $5 to $6 per unit is $1 ($6 - $5). However, the cash received by producers reduced by $3 from $5 to $2. This shows that the total tax burden on both consumers and producers is $4 ($1 + $3).
This represents a total tax burden of $4 or about 67% based on the new selling price of cola or 80% based on the old selling price of cola.
"The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers alone. This because the price of cola would have increased to $9 per unit. Since the demand for cola in this instance is elastic, this change in price would have caused a more than 80% change in the quantity demanded.
