Answer:

Operating income will be $6,000

Explanation:

The computation of the operating income is shown below:

= Total cost - outsourcing cost

where,

Total cost = Variable cost + fixed cost

Variable cost = Number of microwaves × variable cost per unit

                       = 500 × $26

                       = $13,000

And, the fixed cost is $7,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $13,000 + $7,000

= $20,000

And, the outsourcing cost equal to

= Number of microwaves × outsourcing cost per unit

= 500 × $28

= $14,000

So, the net income would be

= $20,000 - $14,000

= $6,000

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Balance sheet

Inventory - Understatement by $11,600

Owners equity - Understatement by $11,600

Income statement

Cost of goods sold - Overstatement by $11,600

Net income - Understatement by $11,600

Explanation:

The movement in an inventory account which is the difference between the opening and ending balances is a function of the purchases and the sales during the period.

This is captured in the equation below

Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = ending balance

Hence an understatement of the ending balance would result in an overstatement of the cost of goods sold thus an understatement of the net income (and owner's equity).

The understatement in closing inventory balance is

= $378,500 - $366,900

= $11,600.

In a survey of companies, it was found that 45 were in the mining sector, 72 were in
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

0.288

0.308

Explanation:

Given :

Mining sector = 45

Financial sector = 72

IT sector = 32

Production sector = 101

Total number of companies :

(45 + 72 + 32 + 101) = 250

A.)

Probability that a randomly selected company is in the financial sector

Recall :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(company = financial) = (number of companies in financial sector / total number of companies)

P(company = financial) = 72 / 250 = 0.288

B.)

Company is either a mining or IT company :

P(company = Mining or IT) = (number of mining + number of IT Companies) / total number of companies

P(company = Mining or IT) = (45 + 32) / 250 = 77 / 250 = 0.308
