as popular in the 1930s. The retro-look cycle would be sold for $15,000 and at that price, Thad estimates 300 units would be sold each year. The variable cost to produce and sell the cycles would be $11,250 per unit. The annual fixed
cost would be $1,012,500.

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Price= $15000

Q=300

The variable cost to produce and sell the cycles would be $11,250 per unit.

The annual fixed cost would be $1,012,500.

A)break-even point in units=fixed costs/contribution margin= 1012500/(15000-11250)= 270 units

B) margin of safety= budgeted sales - break-even sales

Margin of safety= 4500000-4050000= $450000

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The journal entry to record payroll for the January 2013 pay period will include a debit to payroll tax expense of $6,760

Explanation:

In order to calculate The journal entry to record payroll for the January 2013 pay period we would have to calculate the payroll tax expense as follows:

payroll tax expense=Federal unemployment tax rate+(Social security tax rate+medicare tax rate)*Salaries

Federal unemployment tax rate=$80,000*0.80%

Federal unemployment tax rate=$640

(Social security tax rate+medicare tax rate)*Salaries= (6.2%+ 1.45%)*$80,000

(Social security tax rate+medicare tax rate)*Salaries=$6,120

Therefore, payroll tax expense=$640+$6,120

payroll tax expense=$6,760

The journal entry to record payroll for the January 2013 pay period will include a debit to payroll tax expense of $6,760

A manufacturer of brand A jeans has daily production costs of Upper C equals 0.3 x squared minus 120 x plus 12 comma 585​, where
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

a. 200 jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize​ costs.

b. The minimum daily​ cost is $108,585

Explanation:

a. How many jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize​ costs?

Given C = 0.3x^2 - 120x + 120,585 ........................... (1)

Cost is minimized when MC = C' = 0

To obtain MC, equation (1) is differentiate with respect to x as follows:

dC/dx = MC = C' = 0.6x - 120 = 0 ............................... (2)

From equation (2), we can now solve for x follows:

0.6x - 120 = 0

0.6x = 120

x = 120 ÷ 0.6

x = 200

Therefore, 200 jeans should be produced each day in order to minimize​ costs.

b. What is the minimum daily​ cost?

Substitute 200 for x in equation (1) to have:

C = 0.3(200^2) - 120(200) + 120,585

   = 12,000 - 24,000 + 120,585

C = $108,585

Therefore, the minimum daily​ cost is $108,585.
