Answer:
Pine Street should sell finished bookcases because they have a higher contribution margin.
Explanation:
We compare the contribution margin of the two categories to find out whether Pine Street should sell unfinished or finished bookcases.
Pine Street Inc.
Unfinished bookcases
Contribution Margin
Sales Price $58.10
Less Production costs
Variable Costs $37.49
<u>Fixed Costs $10.50 (47.99)</u>
<u>Contribution Margin $ 10.11</u>
Pine Street should sell finished bookcases because they have a higher contribution margin. It is almost double of the unfinished book cases contribution margin.
Pine Street Inc.
Finished bookcases
CONTRIBUTION MARGIN
Sales Price $74.91
Less Production costs
Variable Costs $37.49 + $5.79 = $ 43.28
<u>Fixed Costs $10.50 $ (53.78)</u>
<u>Contribution Margin $ 21.13</u>
Answer:
The correct answer is Option A.
Explanation:
The concept of double entry says for every debit entry, there must be a corresponding credit entry. This is necessary for the journal entries to balance, that is, the total of the debit balance must always equal the credit balance.
The building purchased by BOC is an asset. So there is need to debit that account to recognize the asset. Since there was an outflow of cash to the tune of $50,000, we need to credit cash while the remaining balance being financed by mortgage will be credited to recognize the liability.

Answer:
D) Usage
Explanation:
Usage barriers or obstacles to use are basically reasons why a customer will cease purchasing a good or service, or might even return a purchased good just after purchasing it. Sometimes enthusiastic customers may falsely believe that a product is easy to handle and use, while it's not, e.g. a Sedgeway that initially had very high sales but then they plummeted. Usage barriers result in high customer churn.
In this case, some users might actually believe that eating a small amount for one day and exercising for a couple of hours will radically change their body structure. The bad thing is that after a few days they will realize that it was all a lie, and they will get either frustrated or mad.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": Using accelerated depreciation rather than straight line would normally have no effect on a project's total projected cash flows but it would affect the timing of the cash flows and thus the NPV.
Explanation:
Accelerated depreciation is a form of accounting and taxation used in the first years of an asset to allow greater deductions. On the other hand, the deductions are distributed evenly throughout the life of the asset using the Straight-line Depreciation method. Accelerated depreciation facilitates higher expenses to be incurred during the first years of an asset while in use, and lower expenses years later, as long as the asset depreciates.
In that sense, when it comes to the total projected cash flow of a company on a project, neither the accelerated depreciation or the straight-line method would affect it but both of them have impact on the timing of the cash flows since accelerated depreciation demands higher expenses since the beginning of the possession of the assets while the straight-line method keeps the expenses steady. Both, also affect the net present value (NPV) of the company since with the accelerated depreciation the cash flow will be less and with the straight-line method it should be constant.
