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

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.

Gross profit is a line item under income statement and it is the difference between net sales(revenue) and cost of sales. It is a measure of profitability ( net sales - cost of sales?

Cost of sales = beginning Inventory + purchases - ending Inventory

Assume the following data concerning a purchase of merchandise by Icon Co. on April 2:
Eduardwww [97]

The purchase amount that Icon Co. would record on April 2 would be: <u>c. $4,000</u>.

<h3>What is the purchase amount to be recorded?</h3>

The purchase amount that should be recorded on the date of purchase is the amount of the transaction.  This does not take into account the return and discount which happened later.

This implies that Icon Co. will reduce the purchase amount on April 4 when half of the goods were returned with a contra entry.  And discount will be based on the balance of $2,000 instead of $4,000.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Purchase on April 2 = $4,000

Purchases Return on April 4 = $2,000

Thus, the purchase amount that Icon Co. would record on April 2 would be: <u>c. $4,000</u>.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Brazilian tomato producers are worse off.

Explanation:

A country has a comparative advantage in producing a good and service if its opportunity cost of producing that good and service is lower than that of its trading partner. So it is better off for a country that has a lower opportunity cost in production a good or service to specialise in that good or service.

Brazil has a comparative advantage in coffee production, meaning, it is better off in specialising in the production of coffee and will be worse off if Brazil specialises in Tomato

Mexico has a comparative advantage is Tomato, meaning, she is better off in specialising in Tomato and worse off if she specialises in Coffee
