Answer:

I agree with Mike because pure risks involve only possible losses. Since he owns his house, the possibility of it burning down would represent only a loss to him.

But if he buys insurance, he will pay an insurance premium which means that if the house burns down, the company will lose money, but if the hose doesn't burn down, the insurance company will make a profit. This represents speculative risk because the possibility of a gain and a loss exist.

andriy [413]

Answer:

$11,000

Explanation:

Fabricating Department budgeted direct labor = $9,280

Depreciation remains constant at any level of production.

Budgeted labor rate = Budgeted direct labor ÷ Hours of production

                                  = $9,280 ÷ 640

                                  = $14.5 per hour

Direct labor cost = completed hours of production × Budgeted labor rate

                            = 600 × $14.5

                            = $8,700

Budget for the Fabricating Department at 600 hours of production:

Budgeted cost = Direct labor cost + Equipment depreciation

                         = $8,700 + $2,300

                         = $11,000
