Answer:

Correct option is (D)

Explanation:

Total cost is a sum of Total fixed cost and total variable cost. Fixed cost does not change with the change in number of units produced. Variable cost on the other hand increases with the increase in production.

So, initially fixed cost is higher than variable cost at a certain production level. As production increases, fixed cost is spread across units and per unit fixed cost falls but variable cost keeps increasing, so total cost keep increasing with increase in production because of variable cost component.

"I’m not sure we should lay out $250,000 for that automated welding machine," said Jim Alder, president of the Superior Equipmen

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The annual net cost savings promised by the automated welding machine

Annual Costs savings in replacing 6 welders $108,000

Reduced Material costs $6,500

Total annual Costs savings = $114,500

Note there is a $3,000 annual maintenance cost that will then be taken off this savings amount to make up the Annual Net cash inflow of $111,500

A. The Net Present value is $72,227. Kindly refer to the attached document for the clear presentation

B. The project should be accepted because it delivers a positive NPV. Meaning the net benefit outweighs the cost of owning the new Assets.

The Discounted net Cash flow for the 6 years (aside the initial outlay) is $402,227.

Annually this comes to $67,038.

The benefit the business gets in the switch to the automatic welders is approximately $67,038 annually.

MC Qu. 97 The standard materials cost to produce... The standard materials cost to produce 1 unit of Product R is 7 pounds of ma

OleMash [197]

Answer:

total direct materials cost variance is $6,000 Favourable

Explanation:

first we get here Standard cost to manufacture

Standard cost to manufacture 6,000 units is = 7 × $47 × 6,000

Standard cost = $1,974,000

and

now we get here Actual cost to manufacturing

Actual cost to manufacturing 6,000 units is = 41,000 × $48

Actual cost = $1,968,000

and

now we get here Direct material cost variance that is express as

Direct material cost variance = Standard cost - Actual cost ..........1

put here value

Direct material cost variance = $1,974,000 - $1,968,000

Direct material cost variance = $6,000 Favourable
