Answer:

It is more convenient to continue processing. Income will increase by $37,900

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

7,700 units of product X15 are produced from each ton of clypton.

The units can either be sold at the split-off point for $13 each or processed further at a total cost of $8,300 and then sold for $19 each.

Sell now:

Effect on income= 7,700*13= 100,100

Continue processing:

Effect on income= 7,700*19 - 8,300= 138,000

It is more convenient to continue processing. Income will increase by $37,900

Answer:

Financial advantage $33,700

Explanation:

                                                                                                      $

Sales at the split-off point  ($13 × 7,000)                               91,000

Sales after the split off point ($19 × 7,000)                            <u>133,000</u>

Additional sales revenue                                                         42,000

Further processing cost                                                          <u> (8,300)</u>

Financial advantage                                                                <u>33,700</u>

Financial advantage $33,700

The joint costs of $80,000 is irrelevant for this decision. Whether or not the product is processed further they had already been incurred.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Yes, Hazel needs to pay extra $700

Explanation:

As per pre-existing duty rule, a person is obligated to perform his duty at the consideration agreed upon initially. Any modification to the contract is void.

Exceptions to this rule:

  • As per new contract, if the person undertaking his duty hires another person to perform the work so as to complete it in time, then modifications are valid and enforceable.
  • Modifications are valid in case of unforeseen contingencies like war, recession, change in economic conditions and strikes.

In this case, Hazel agreed to pay $700 extra. Under pre-existing duty rule, she is not required to pay Eugene extra $700 but since Eugene took additional help exception to the rule applies and Hazel is obligated to pay $700 extra.
