Answer:
Bellisima's opportunity cost:
-
Production of corn per million hours of labor = 12 / 24 = 0.5 pairs of jeans of corn
- Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 24 / 12 = 2 bushels of corn
Felicidad's opportunity cost:
- Production of corn per million hours of labor = 8 / 32 = 0.25 pairs of jeans of corn
- Production of jeans per million hours of labor = 32 / 8 = 4 bushels of corn
Felicidad has a comparative advantage int he production of corn while Bellisima has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.
If both countries specialize:
- Felicidad will produce 128 million bushels of corn.
- Bellisima will produce 48 million pairs of jeans.
Total production of corn has increased by 24 million bushels.
Total production of jeans has increased by 12 million pairs.
Assuming that Bellisima trades 26 million pairs of jeans and Felicidad exchanges 78 million bushels of corn, then:
- Felicidad's consumption of jeans will increase by 2 million pairs, while their consumption of corn will increase by 50 million bushels.
- Bellisima's consumption of jeans will increase by 10 million pairs, while their consumption of corn will increase by 6 million bushels.
Answer:
$96,000
Explanation:
Production 26,000 units
<u>Materials Purchase Budget</u>
Production Materials Required (5×26,000 units) 130,000
Add Budgeted Closing Materials (50,000×20%×5) 50,000
Total Materials 180,000
Less Budgeted Opening Inventory (4,000×5) (20,000)
Budgeted Materials 160,000
Material Cost per pound $0.60
Total Material Cost $96,000
Therefore, the materials purchases budget will be for the month ending April 30 will be $96,000.
Answer:
Net decrease in prepaid expenses of $30,000 will be added to the net income in adjustments to net income because it will be considered that working capital (inventory or any other expense) has been generated by the operations.
Net decrease in Accounts payable of $20,000 will be deducted from net income in adjustments to net income because decrease in accounts payable means that cash has been paid to the outstanding payables.
Net effect of the above transactions is $30,000 - $20,000 = $10,000
So, net income will be increased by $10,000 as net effect of the above adjustments.
