A customer has requested that Lewelling Corporation fill a special order for 2,100 units of product S47 for $26 a unit. While th

e product would be modified slightly for the special order, product S47's normal unit product cost is $19.20:
Direct materials $ 5.70
Direct labor 3.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.80
Fixed manufacturing overhead 7.70
Unit product cost $ 19.20
Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The customer would like modifications made to product S47 that would increase the variable costs by $1.30 per unit and that would require an investment of $11,000.00 in special molds that would have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:

Answer:

The annual financial advantage for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be: $16,720

Explanation:

Fixed Manufacturing Overheads are irrelevant for this decision since The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order and no need to alter existing capacity.

<u>Incremental Costs and Revenues - special order</u>

Sales ( 2,100 units × $26 )                                                  54,600

Direct materials ( 2,100 units × $ 5.70 )                               (11,970)

Direct labor ( 2,100 units × $3.00 )                                      ( 6,300)

Variable manufacturing overhead  ( 2,100 units ×$2.80)  (5,880)

Incremental Variable Cost ( 2,100 units × $1.30)              ($2,730)

Investment in Special Molds                                             ($11,000)

Incremental Income/(loss)                                                  $16,720

Therefore, The annual financial advantage will be  $16,720

Which of the following is true of assigning costs to cost objects? a.Assigning costs to cost objects can be accomplished in a nu
podryga [215]

Answer:

A and B.

Explanation:

Understand  cost classification used for assigning costs to cost objects can be divided in direct costs and indirect costs.

Direct costs are those who can be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Examples are direct material and labor.

Indirect costs are those who cannot be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Example manufacturing overhead.

The common costs are the indirect costs incurred in support a number of cost objects. These costs cannot be traced to any individual cost object.

Determining cost tracing and allocation is more art than science, as it's difficult to trace costs with 100 percent accuracy.

Tracing costs becomes even more difficult when a cost goes toward producing multiple goods or services.

Can a broker arbitrarily penalize an independent contractor based on varying factors, such as the sales agent's difficulty in cl
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

An independent contractor is a business person or entity who works for an employer based on an agreed-upon contract which affords him the flexibility of choosing how and when he accomplishes a task. The employer has the right to control the results of his work but has little or no say on how and when the job is done.

An independent contractor is not bound to work specific hours dictated by an employer. When the sale's agent finds it difficult to close a deal or is unable to produce paperwork in a timely fashion, he cannot just be arbitrarily penalized by the broker. The broker could terminate the contract if the agent does not meet up to his requirements.

Dax has been promoted to a first-line manager. Dax's new position will require him to spend a lot of time
monitta

Answer

This new position as a first line manager will require him to operate his departments. This role requires him to assign tasks, manage the work flow, monitor the quality of work, solve the employees problems and keep informing the middle and executive managers on challenges and success on the ground level of the company.

Explanations

First-line managers provide firsthand information on true challenges and can offer better and workable solutions. This is because they have the immediate view of the outcomes of the policies, strategies, marketing approaches and production capabilities of the company. They have the ear of upper managers, where they will offer solutions that can improve the processes in the company and the procedures. In addition to that, first-line managers are expected by the work-group employees to protect them from policies and initiatives which are unreasonable.
