Answer:
Units sold equaled 39,000 and units produced equaled 42,000.
Explanation:
The reason is that operating income will be lower under variable costing than absorption costing when there is a rise in the the unit level of inventory during an accounting period.
From the question, the 42,000 units of production is 3,000 units greater than the 39,000 units sold. This implies that there is an increase in the unit of inventory level. This usually cause the variable-costing income to be lower than absorption-costing income.
Answer:
The correct answer is: ordering ease.
Explanation:
The sales process in a store has to be as simple as possible. You have to make it easy for customers to make the purchase without any inconvenience. And the registration process is another ordeal on many occasions, do we really need all this data to close the sale? Sometimes it seems that the registration in our store is used to get the data that will allow us to build customer loyalty, won't it be better to close the sale and then we'll try to build customer loyalty?
Answer:
The manager should pick project B
Explanation:
To determine what decision the manager should make, the NPV of both projects should be calculated.
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
NPV for project A
Cash flows:
Year 0 = $-335,000
year 1 = $140,000
year 2 = $150,000
year 3 = $100,000
I = 6%
NPV= $14,536.87
NPV for project B
Cash flows:
Year 0 = $-365,000
year 1 = $220,000
year 2 = $110,000
year 3 = $150,000
I = 6%
NPV= $66,389.67
Both projects are profitable but because the firm uses capital rationing , the manager has to pick the now profitbale project, which is project B.
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
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:
$3,716.37
Explanation:
Initial investment $70,000 (cost of the equipment)
Depreciation expense per year = (cost- salvage value) / useful life = ($70,000 - $0) / 5 years = $14,000
net cash flows per year (the same for every year):
[(revenues - operating expenses - depreciation expense) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation expense = [($30,000 - $11,000 - $14,000) x (1 - 30%)] + $14,000 = $3,500 + $14,000 = $17,500
year NCF
0 -$70,000
1 $17,500
2 $17,500
3 $17,500
4 $17,500
5 $17,500
6% discount rate
using a financial calculator, the NPV = -$70,000 + $73,716.37 = $3,716.37
$73,716.37 is the present value of the 5 future cash flows
