Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance  

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year

Mortensen Industries, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion co
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 60%

Explanation:

Find the ending work in process.

Materials are complete at inception so the Equivalent units of Materials represent the total units.

Ending WIP will therefore be:

= Materials EUP - Units started and completed

= 5,000 - 3,500

= 1,500 units

Stage of completion is based on Conversion.

Conversion EUP = Total started and completed + (x% * Closing WIP)

4,400 = 3,500 + (x% * 1,500)

4,400 = 3,500 + 15x

15x = 4,400 - 3,500

15x = 900

x = 900/15

x = 60%

<em>Conversion is 60% complete so this is the stage of completion. </em>
