Answer:

$90,500

Explanation:

The computation of initial cash outlay is shown below:-

initial cash outlay = New machine cost + Increase in working capital - After tax salvage value

= $145,000 + $12,000 - (($75,000 - ($75,000 - $50,000) × 0.34

= $145,000 + $12,000 - $66,500

= $90,500

Therefore for computing the initial cash outlay we simply applied the above formula.

True or False: If Hubert's Fire Engines were a competitive firm instead and $100,000 were the market price for an engine, decrea
KatRina [158]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market the sales revenue is based on pricing also. As the pricing policy also plays an important role in the marketing technique to attract customers.

As the quality served is generally the same in the market, there is no issue in that but when the price is reduced expected sales will increase and accordingly the expected revenue also increases.

As the sales is expected to increase the revenue will also increase accordingly, even though the price is reduced, due to increase in sales quantity the expected change shall not be same as that of the change in price.

Thus, the statement is False.

Our company can produce a product that incurs the following costs per unit: direct materials, $10; direct labor, $24, and overhe
kvasek [131]

Answer:

net incremental cost = $ 2.2

Explanation:

Data provided:

Direct material cost = $ 10  per unit

Direct labor cost = $ 24  per unit

Overhead cost = $ 16 per unit

thus,

the total cost of the product = $ 10 + $ 24 + $ 16 = $ 50

Now,

if bought from outside cost = $ 45

Overhead cost if bought from outside = 45% of the overhead cost

= 0.45 × $ 16 = $ 7.2

hence, the total cost if bought from outside = $ 45 + $ 7.2 = $ 52.2

since, the cost of product if bought from outside side is greater than the product is produced by own

therefore, the net incremental cost = $ 52.2 - $ 50 = $ 2.2
