Answer:

  1. a. $950,000.
  2. $150,000.
  3. a. $1,115,000.
  4. d. -$15,000.
  5. b. how much an individual currently earns minus how much the individual would earn in his or her next best alternative.

Explanation:

1. Chris's accounting cost

The accounting cost is the explicit cost of the business. The normal costs so to speak;

= Parts and supplies necessary for the restoration + Salaries to employees + Salary to himself + Rent and utilities

= 400,000 + 360,000 + 110,000 + 80,000

= $‭950,000‬

2. Chris's accounting profit

= Revenue - Accounting cost

= 1,100,000 - 950,000

= $150,000

3. Chris's economic cost

These are explicit + implicit (opportunity) cost.

The opportunity cost is the next best alternative which would have been the $275,000 if he had worked at Jay Leno’s personal auto restorer.

He would therefore forfeit the salary he earns now of $110,000.

= Accounting cost + Salary foregone - Salary

= 950,000 + 275,000  - 110,000

= $1,115,000

4. Chris's economic profit

= 1,100,000 - 1,115,000

= -$15,000

5. b. how much an individual currently earns minus how much the individual would earn in his or her next best alternative.

La Famiglia Pizzeria provided the following information for the month of October:
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a

The cash receipts in October are as follows:

Cash Sales:

85% of $157,000

= 0.85 * $157,000

= $133,450

Payments on September credit sales:

$181,500 * 28% * (80 - 75)%

= $181,500 *0.28 * 15%

= $181,500 * 0.28 * 0.15

= $7,623

Payments on October credit sales** 16,485

$157,000 * 70% * (85 - 70)%

$157,000 * 0.7 * 15%

= $157,000 * 0.7 * 0.15

= $16,485

Total cash expected = $133,450 + $7,623 + $16,485 = $157,558

b.

Payments for food purchases is as follows:

September

($130,000 × 0.75) = $97,500

October

($116,000 × 0.25) = 29,000

Total cash needed for June = $97,500 + $29,000 = $126,500

c.

The inventory is as follows:

Beginning balance $2,147

Cash receipts $157,558

Cash available $159,705

The following items will be subtracted:

Food purchases $126,500

Shareholder's Dividend $6,000

Workers’ wages in September $730 ---- 10% of $7,300

Workers’ wages re: October $6,570 --- 90% of $7,300

Utilities $5,590

Insurance $1,200

Rent $4,100

Total disbursements $150,690

Ending balance

= $159,705 - $150,690

= $9,015

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

$16,000

With regards to the above information, we are only concerned with calculating the value of 20 tons of styrene to the company, hence other information are not relevant.

The total value of the 20 tons of styrene monomer to the company would be ;

= 20 tons of styrene monomer × Market price of styrene monomer per ton

= 20 × $800

= $16,000
