b. False

1 answer:

Answer; True

Explanation;

When a company has excess capacity, it means that potentially it could produce more than it is producing at the moment. As this potential already takes into account the fixed costs, this means that given the fixed costs it currently has, more goods could be produced on those same fixed costs and they wouldn't increase.

Increasing production level would therefore only increase variable costs which rise whenever production rises as they are directly related to the production of goods.

Luba_88 [7]

Complete Question:

Sanchez & Company produces paints. On July 1st it had no work in progress inventory. It starts reduction of 150,000 gallons of paint in July and completes 120000 gallons. The cost of the resources used by Sanchez in July consists of the following:

Materials- $137000

Conversion Costs- $175000

"The production supervisor estimates that the ending work-in-process is 16 percent complete. Compute the cost of paint transferred to finished goods and the amount in work-in-process ending inventory as of July 31"

Cost of paint transferred to finished goods__________

Work-in-process ending inventory_________

Answer

The Cost of Paint Transferred to Finished = $300,000

Work-in-Process Ending Inventory = $12,000

Explanation:

Given

Materials = $137,000

Conversion Costs = $175,000

Started = 150,000 gallons

Completed = (120,000) gallons

Ending Work in Progress = 150,000 - 120,000

Ending Work in Progress = 30,000

To calculate cost of paint transferred out and ending inventory of work in progress,

First we'll need to calculate the cost per unit of a paint(gallon)

This is given by: total cost ÷ total unit.

Calculating Total Cost:

Total Cost = $137,000 + $175,000

Total Cost = $312,000

Calculating Total Units:

Ending Work in Progress = : 16% complete ----- Given

So, Ending Work in Progress = 16% * 30,000 = 4,800

Total Completed Unit is then given by: 120,000 gallon + 4,800

Total = 124,800

Calculating Cost per unit

If the total cost is $312,000 then a unit will cost

$312,000/124,800

Cost per unit = $2.5/unit

Finally,

The Cost of Paint Transferred to Finished Goods is calculated by:

Total Units Transferred out = 120,000 gallons

Cost = 120,000 * $2.5

Cost = $300,000

Work-in-Process Ending Inventory is calculated by:

Ending Inventory = 4,800 ----- calculated

Work in Process Ending Inventory = 4,800 * $2.5

Work in Process = $12,000

The line of authority that extends from the upper levels of management to the lowest levels of the organization is ____________.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

<h2>The answer in this case would be option D. given in the answer choices or Chain of Command.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Under the chain of command system, the line of authority or organizational control runs hierarchically from the top to the low levels of the administrative management chain.
  • The organizational functions, duties, assignments and responsibilities are arranged according to the hierarchical structure of the organizational management or administration under the chain of command system.
  • The departmental designations and divisions under the chain of command are also guided by hierarchical classification of the organization management.The officials under the department of the lower levels of management usually work under and report to the middle or top management levels and the departments and officials working in the mid level management generally reports to the top level management in any business organization.
  • Hence, the line of control or authority flows or runs from the upper/top level to the relatively lower levels of management under chain of command.
