Variable and absorption costing and breakeven points. Camino, a leading firm in the sports industry, produces basketballs for th

e consumer market. For the year ended December 31, 2017, Camino sold 400,000 basketballs at an average selling price of $12 per unit. The following information also relates to 2017 (assume constant unit costs and no variances of any kind):
Inventory, January 1, 2017: 0 basketballs
Inventory, December 31, 2017: 20,000 basketballs
Fixed manufacturing costs: $380,000
Fixed administrative costs: $660,000
Direct materials costs: $ 3 per basketball
Direct labor costs: $ 4 per basketball

1. Prepare income statements under (a) variable, (b) absorption, and (c) throughput costing for the year endedDecember 31,2017.
2. Calculate the breakeven point (in basketballs sold) in 2017 under:
a. Variable costing
b. Absorption costing
c. Throughput costing
3. Suppose direct materials costs were $4 per basketball instead. Assuming all other data are the same, calculate the minimum number of basketballs Camino must have sold in 2017 to attain a target operating income of $120,000 under:
a. Variable costing
b. Absorption costing

3. units to be sold 145000                        87640.44944            332000

Explanation:

UNIT COST  7                                     7.90                      3

material          3                                       3                         3

labor          4                                         4  

fixed cost                                        0.90  

   

   

produced units    

opening           0                                          0                          0

produced  420000                           420000             420000

closing          20000                            20000                      20000

sold                  400000                            400000              400000

breakeven = fixed cost / contribution per unit

3.  change in unit cost  

                   variable   absorption throughput

material            4                4              4

labour                 4                 4

unit cost                8                8.9               4

sales    

opening stock    

produced    

closing    

cost of sales    

contribution  1160000    780000     1328000

direct labour                                 168000

fixed cost    

admin          660000         660000       660000

manufacturing                  380000  380000

net income  120000          120000         120000

to get the amounts for the closing stock, opening stock, produced and sold we multiply by unit cost

to get produced units we take sold stock plus closing stock less openning stock

to get the units that must be sold to make net income of 120 000

we do bottom up approach and can stop at contribution then divide it by contribution per unit.

If the market maker is willing to purchase the entire block of 1,500 shares from Amara and, from that block, resell 1,000 shares
NeTakaya

Answer:

$1,300

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the market maker’s net profit from Brent’s transaction

First step is to calculate the bid-ask spread using this formula

Bid-ask spread=Ask price-Bid price

Let plug in the formula

Bid-ask spread=$31.80-$30.50

Bid-ask spread=$1.30

Now let calculate the Net profit

Using this formula

Net profit=Bid-ask spread*Shares resell

Net profit=$1.3 x 1000 shares

Net profit=$1,300

Therefore the market maker’s net profit from Brent’s transaction will be $1,300

Fill in the blanks:
podryga [215]

Answer:

(i) Base year prices

(ii) between two consecutive years

Explanation:

formula for GDP deflator is (real GDP)/(nominal GDP) x 100 which is the numerator real GDP where prices are valued at the current year adjusted to inflation or deflation and then the denominator where prices are valued at a base year where prices are valued at a nominal year which are not adjusted to any inflation or deflation.

The CPI ( consumer price index) is calculated by determining the rise or fall in price of a good or goods in two consecutive periods which in turn gives us the increase or decrease in price percentage.

Alicia heard that as a general rule, she should spend no more than one week's pay on rent. If Alicia's pay is $35,256 per year,
Nastasia [14]
If Alicia pay per year is $35,256 and there are twelve months in a year, then her monthly salary is $35,256/12 = 2,938.
This means that Alicia earns $2, 938 each month. 
Conventionally, there are four weeks in a month, thus, Alicia earns $2,938/4 = 734.50. This means that, Alicia earns $734. 50 each week and this is the amount that Alicia is expected to spend on rent on a monthly basis.
