Answer:
AC Problems : Incurred even at 0 output level, much varying & deviant from cash flows
VC Problems : Doesn't include fixed cost, incomplete expenditure, incomplete financial (accounting) statements.
Explanation:
Average Cost is the cost per unit off output.
Problems with AC as a performance measure :
- It includes all (fixed & variable cost) average. So, including fixed cost, it is not zero even at zero output level.
- It's variance analysis during production & cost phases is very complicated.
- It's result are deviant as evident from cash flows.
Variable Cost is the cost incurred on variable factors of production.
Problems with VC as a performance measure :
- It doesn't include fixed cost. So, it is not a correct measure of complete total expenditure.
- Fixed costs are huge. No financial inclusion of them makes accounting information unreliable (for legal purposes)

Answer:
0.9717 per unit sold (approx)
Explanation:
Here, we are assuming 52 weeks in a year.
Contribution margin:
= (Sales revenue - variable cost) ÷ sales revenue
= [(3.52 × 10 + 3.52 × 0.18 × 540 × 52) - (3.52 × 0.26 × 551)] ÷ (3.52 × 10 + 3.52 × 0.18 × 540 × 52)
= [(35.2 + 17,791) - (504)] ÷ (35.2 + 17,791)
= [17,826.2 - 504] ÷ 17,826.2
= 17,322.2 ÷ 17,826.2
= $0.9717 per unit sold (approx)
Answer:
sales is $2,500,000
Explanation:
The target sales for the company to achieve a net income of $450,000 in the current year equals the net income plus variable cost plus the fixed costs.
To understand this better,let us use the net income formula:
net income=sales-variable costs-fixed costs
by changing the subject of the formula,we the formula for sales:
sales=net income+variable costs+fixed costs
variable costs=sales*70%=0.7 sales
sales=$450,000+$300,000+0.7 sales
sales-0.7 sales=$750,000
0.3 sales=$750,000
sales=$750,000/0.3=$2,500,000
Answer: All of the above
Explanation:
A company should endeavour to be socially responsible if it will result in any of the listed circumstances as they are all benefits.
If this would increase the company's competitive advantage it should be embarked on as it would lead to the company having a better position in the market. It can also reduce the cost to the company of reputation damaging incidents.
A company having improved efficiency and workforce retention is a good company and if socially responsible actions will bring that, the company should do it. And with the purpose of a company being to maximise shareholder value, a company should definitely engage in socially responsible actions if there is a high correlation between CSR and stock price.
