Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": both costs and revenues may be analyzed.
Explanation:
Incremental analysis studies two options from where only one is to be selected. It is a helpful tool that allows allocating limited resources efficiently. It is mostly implemented to find out which alternative provides the greater yield producing at the lowest cost. Incremental analysis does not consider sunk or past costs.
Therefore, <em>incremental analysis may study both costs and revenues between two options.</em>
Answer:
When a company is using conventional costing methods, the costs are allocated based on volume so those products with a high volume will get a higher share of the costs.
When Activity-based costing is used however, costs are assigned more accurately which will lead to the actual products that are causing the costs incurring them instead of those high-volume products so it will appear as though overhead costs have shifted from high-volume products to low-volume products.
The amount of cash received will be the net of discounts and sales returns.
Given,
the sales = $ 2,000
The sales return = $ 800
The discount will be allowed only if the payment is made within the discounts period i.e. 10 days. The sales were made in 15th July and Payment is made on 24th July, thus Carson company is eligible for the discount. The discount will be calculated on the sales net of returns
Net sales = $ 2,000 - $ 800 = $ 1200
Discount = 2 % X $ 1,200 = $ 24
The cash received = $ 2,000 - $ 800 - $ 24 = $ 1,176
