Answer:

$48,200

Explanation:

Given:

Selling price of home = $140,000

Acquisition price = $45,000

Closing cost = $2,000

Cost of fireplace and family room = $35,000

Real estate commission = 0.07 × 140,000 = $9,800

Total adjusted basis  = 45,000 + 2,000 + 35,000 + 9,800

                                   = $91,800

Taxable gain = Selling price - adjusted basis

                      = 140,000 - 91,800

                      = $48,200

Missing information:

Fixed administrative expense $ 16,200 Variable selling expense $ 20,250 Variable administrative expense $ ? Contribution margin $ 81,000 Net operating income $ 24,300

1. Prepare a contribution format income statement.

2. Prepare a traditional format income statement.

3. Calculate the selling price per unit.

4. Calculate the variable cost per unit.

5. Calculate the contribution margin per unit.

Answer:

First we must determine cost of goods sold = $27,000 + $270,000 - $13,500 = $283,500

now we must find total variable costs = total sales - contribution margin = $405,00 - $81,000 = $324,000

variable administrative expenses = total variable costs - COGS - variable selling expense = $324,000 - $283,500 - $20,250 = $20,250

1. Prepare a contribution format income statement.

Total sales                                                              $405,000

<u>Cost of goods sold                                                $283,500</u>

Contribution margin                                                $81,000

Fixed period expenses:

  • Fixed selling expense                                   $40,500
  • <u>Fixed administrative expense                       $16,200</u>

Net operating income                                            $24,300

2. Prepare a traditional format income statement.

Total sales                                                              $405,000

<u>Cost of goods sold                                                $283,500</u>

Market failures : a) are only a concern when they result in prices that are too high. b) apply exclusively to situations where p
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

d) result in overproduction or underproduction of a good.

Explanation:

Market failure occurs when market forces fails to allocate goods and services efficiently.

The government usually intervenes to correct market failure.

Externalities usually lead to market failure.

Positive externality is when the benefits of economic activities to third parties exceeds its cost. Research and development usually yield postive externality.

Goods that yield postive externality are usually underproduced. Government can intervene by giving subsidies and grants which encourages production.

A negative externality is when the cost of economic activities to third parties exceeds the benefit. Pollution is an example of negative externality. Goods that yield negative externality are usually overproduced. Government can intervene by taxing companies producing negative externality. This would increase the cost of production and discourage production.
