Answer and Explanation:

The Preparation of direct materials budget for the second quarter is prepared below:-

                                           <u>Rida, Inc., </u>

                             <u> Direct materials budget </u>

                               <u> for the second quarter</u>

<u>Particulars                                             Amount</u>

Units to be produced                             229,000

Material required per unit                      0.6

Material needed for production           137,400

Budgeted Ending Inventory                   63,960

(266,500 units × 0.60 pounds × 40%)

Total material requirements                    201,360

(137,400 + 63,960]

Beginning Inventory                                 (56,500)

materials to be purchased                        144,860

(201,360 - 56,500)

material Price per pound                           $179

Budgeted Cost of Direct

material purchases                                  $25,929,940

(144,860 × $179)

Here we assume 0.60 pounds of a key raw material instead of 613 pounds.

Prepare income statements based on variable costing for each of the 2 years. 2.Prepare income statements based on absorption cos
enot [183]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, it is missing the accounts and numbers, so I looked for a similar question:

<em>The Rehe Comany sells its razors at $3 per unit. The company uses a first-in, first-out actual costing system. A fixed manufacturing cost rate is computed at the end of each year by dividing the actual fixed manufacturing costs by the actual production units. The following data are related to its first two years of operation: </em>

<em>                    2011 2012 </em>

<em>Sales 1000 units  1200 units </em>

<em>Costs: </em>

<em>Variable manufacturing  700 500</em>

<em>Fixed manufacturing  700 700</em>

<em>Variable operating (marketing) 1000 1200 </em>

<em>Fixed operating (marketing)  400 400</em>

<em />

                                                           2011                  2012

Sales                                               1000 units         1200 units

Production                                          1400                  1000  

Costs:  

Variable manufacturing                      $700               $500

per unit $0.50

Fixed manufacturing                           $700               $700

Variable operating (marketing)         $1000             $1200

Fixed operating (marketing)               $400               $400

cogs under absorption costing 2011 = ($1,400 / 1,400) x 1,000 = $1,000

cogs under absorption costing 2012 = $400 + ($1,200 / 1,000) x 800 = $1,360

1.                                    INCOME STATEMENTS

                                      VARIABLE COSTING

                                                             2011                    2012

Total sales revenue:                        $3,000                $3,600            

Opening inventory:                               ($0)                 ($200)

Variable manufacturing:                   ($700)                 ($500)

<u>Ending inventory:                               $200                   $100 </u>

<u>Variable operating:                         ($1,000)              ($1,200)</u>  <u> </u>

Contribution margin:                        $1,500                $1,800

<u>Fixed operating:                                ($400)                ($400) </u>

Net operating income:                       $400                  $700

2.                                   INCOME STATEMENTS

                                   ABSORPTION COSTING

                                                             2011                    2012

Total sales revenue:                        $3,000                $3,600            

<u>COGS:                                             ($1,000)                ($1,360) </u>

Gross margin:                                  $2,000                $2,240

<u>Operating costs:                             ($1,400)               ($1,600) </u>

Net operating income:                       $600                   $640

3. Under variable costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $0.50 (variable production costs per unit) = $200.

Under absorption costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $1 (production cost per unit) = $400

Since closing inventory is $200 higher under absorption costing, then net operating income during 2011 increases by $200.

4. a) Variable costing is more likely to result in inventory buildups. Since variable costing determines the value of closing inventory only using variable manufacturing costs, their value is much lower. E.g. in this case the value of closing inventory 2011 under variable costing is $200, while under absorption costing it is $400. This means that less costs are transferred from one year to another.

b) Cost of goods sold must include all production costs (both variable and fixed). This way COGS costs cannot be over estimated during one year and under estimated the next.

16. According to data from the U.S. Department of Energy, sales of the fuel-efficient Toyota Prius hybrid fell from 194,108 vehi
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.22 and substitutes goods

Explanation:

The computation of the cross-price elasticity of demand using mid point formula is shown below:

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)  

where,  

Change in quantity demanded is

= Q2 - Q1

= 180,603 - 194,108

= -13,505

And, the average of quantity demanded is

= (180,603 + 194,108) ÷ 2

= 187,356

Change in price is

= P2 - P1

= $2.43 - $3.36

= -$0.93

And, the average of price is

= ($2.43 + $3.36) ÷ 2

= 2.895

So, after solving this, the cross - price elasticity is 0.22

Since the cross - price elasticity is positive that reflect the goods are substitutes to each other
