Answer:

A. the economy is producing at less than its potential output and has some cyclical unemployment.

Explanation:

Increase in government spending will increase domestic income, only if economy is producing at less than its potential output.

Increase in federal government spending raises the level of 'govt expenditure' in Aggregate Demand. This creates 'Excess Demand' (AD > AS). However, if the economy is at full employment level, i.e all the resources are already best efficiently utilised as per their production potential. Then, the economy can't increase its domestic income more than its full employment (full potential) level. So : Increase in government spending in full employment case, wont increase total production/ income/ employment further ; as the economy is already at full employment & can't increase economic activity beyond that.

laiz [17]

Answer:

C. straight back chairs will be overcosted

Explanation:

Miller Company makes two types of chairs. One of the chairs is a rocking chair. The other is a straight-back chair. Both chairs are made by hand. Miller Company uses a company-wide overhead rate that is based on direct labor hours to assign overhead costs to the two products. If Miller automates the production of straight-back chairs and continues to use direct labor hours as a company-wide allocation basis:

A. rocking chairs will be undercosted

B. There should be no impact on unit cost  

C. straight back chairs will be overcosted

D. rocking chairs will be overcosted.

EXPLANATION

If Miller automates the production of straight-back chairs and continues to use direct labor hours as a company-wide allocation basis then the straight back chairs will be overcosted<u> because the automation process directly implies that it no longer drives labor hours since it is no longer made by hand.</u>

Automated processes should use machine hours rather than labor hours, for the allocation of its overhead.

likoan [24]

A credit to cash, a debit to sales returns and allowances, a credit to inventory, and a debit to cost of goods sold are all recorded.

Perpetual inventory, commonly referred to as continuous inventory, is an inventory management system that uses software to automatically and constantly record each stock movement (such as purchases, returns, consumptions, and write-offs), keeping the system current at all times.

This contrasts with the need to manually update the system on a regular basis when utilizing spreadsheets or paper-and-pencil alternatives.

Barcodes, POS systems, radio frequency identification, and real-time reporting are used by perpetual inventory systems like MRP, ERP, or WMS software to track inventory movements and build a virtual trail of each transaction occurring in the physical inventory. This makes it possible to perform extremely accurate real-time inventory accounting, giving the business a current cost of goods sold at all times.
