Answer:

Paralith Incorporated

Duck Decoy Department

Flexible Budget for Third Quarter:

                                Actual Results      Flexible Budget      Static Budget

Sales volume​ (in units) ​10,000 ​                  10,000                      ​8,000

Sales revenues ​      $239,000 ​               $293,750                  ​$235,000

Variable costs            ​167,000 ​               $ 230,000                  $184,000

Contribution margin ​$72,000                 ​  $63,750                    ​$51,000

Fixed costs                  38,000 ​                  $33,000​                   $33,000

Operating profit ​      $34,000 ​                  $30,750​                     $18,000

Explanation:

a) Calculations for flexible budget:

Sales volume = 8,000/8,000 x 10,000 = 10,000 units

Sales revenue = $235,000/8,000 x 10,000 = $293,750

Variable costs = $184,000/8,000 x 10,000 = $230,000

Fixed Costs will remain at $33,000

b) A flexible budget is a budget that adjusts or flexes with changes according to the volume or activity level.  On the other hand, the static budget amounts do not change from the amounts established at the time that the static budget was prepared and approved.

"compare intel's actual and pro forma (as if) ratios of intangible assets to long-lived tangible assets in 2012. use r&d cap
kobusy [5.1K]

Since Intel has a history of effectively transforming R&D investment into income, the pro-forma version of the ration seems to be of more significant. A company starting, for instance, would be unalike: its track record would be much poorer and probabilities are that the criteria set in place would not be as rough as Intel’s. Therefore, it appears that the significance hinge on the kind of business: if future benefit is more of a doubt, then R&D should be expensed. The contradictory is true if benefit is almost certain. Intel also has the advantage of being very vibrant with its R&D objectives and having exact, measurable standards. They note obviously what the funds are apportioned to and what the end outcomes should be of the growth.
