Answer:
Conversion Cost Equivalent units FIFO 39, 125
Explanation:
Beginning WIP 5,000 30% completed
transferred units 39,500
ending WIP 4,500 25% completed
<u>The equivalent units will be:</u>
the transferred units
- complete portion for the beginning WIP
+ complete portion of the ending WIP
transferred out 39,500
work in previous period
5,000 x 30% = (1,500)
worked but not complete
4,500 x 25% = <u> 1, 125 </u>
Equivalent units FIFO 39, 125
Answer:
D. The marginal benefit from reducing another ton of pollution should be equal to the marginal cost.
Explanation:
The benefit arises when the cost is fully recovered, as in the given case the marginal cost for each ton reducing the pollution shall be equal to the benefit of marginal ton of pollution reduced.
Whenever, marginal cost is less than the benefit it is favorable but it is not permanent and thus, not valid, in case the cost is equal to the befit it is at break-even and is beneficial in every situation for the economy and environment.
Answer: The internal auditor discovered it when performing a routine audit of expense reimbursements
Explanation:
Marcus Lane, was a geologist who travelled all over North America and South America and this results in several expense reimbursements. Lane engaged in fraudulent activity by double booking his air travel.
He used cheaper ticket for the actual flight and more expensive ticket was returned for credit. But, he submitted the expensive ticket for reimbursement.
The fraud was discovered by the internal auditor while doing a routine audit of expense reimbursements. He was terminated and he agreed to pay the money back.
The argument above is a deductive reasoning. A deductive reasoning draws a conclusion from a series of premises that are held to be true. The argument also employs no informal fallacy. The confusion lies though on the first premise if it is true.
Answer:
$17,500
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:
Variable cost per hour = (High tutoring cost - low tutoring cost) ÷ (High service hours - low service hours)
= ($125,000 - $55,000) ÷ (4,300 hours - 1,500hours)
= $70,000 ÷ 2,800 hours
= $25
Now the fixed cost equal to
= High tutoring cost - (High service hours × Variable cost per hour)
= $125,000 - (4,300 hours × $25)
= $125,000 - $107,500
= $17,500
