Answer:

Tax law uncertainty.

Explanation:

The “Tax law uncertainty” is the correct answer because it can be seen in the question that Congress has disallowed the deductions for advertisement in the future tax years. Since the decisions that the government takes are confidential and only a few people are aware of the decisions before its formal announcement. So the same case is here, Jolsen had a contract of $375000 annually and it will estimate that after obtaining the tax deduction, the advertisement cost will be lower. But the changes in the tax laws result in underestimated after-tax cost by Jolsen.

Types of imperfect competition
hoa [83]
  • Monopolistic competition: A situation in which many firms with slightly different products compete. Production costs are above what may be achieved by perfectly competitive firms, but society benefits from the product differentiation.
  • Monopoly: A firm with no competitors in its industry. A monopoly firm produces less output, has higher costs, and sells its output for a higher price than it would if constrained by competition. These negative outcomes usually generate government regulation.
  • Oligopoly: An industry with only a few firms. If they collude, they form a cartel to reduce output and drive up profits the way a monopoly does.
  • Duopoly: A special form of Oligopoly, with only two firms in an industry.
  • Monopsony: A market with a single buyer and many sellers.
  • Oligopsony: A market with a few buyers and many sellers.

Using the estimated sales and production of 140,000 boxes of Chap-Off, the Accounting Department has developed the following man
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Silven Industries

If Silven buys its tubes from the outside supplier, it will be able to avoid $1.10 of its own Chap-Off manufacturing costs per box

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Production and Sales Units of Chap-Off = 140,000 boxes

Manufacturing cost per box:      Avoidable costs

Direct material              $ 3.70           $0.74 ($3.70 * 20%)

Direct labor                      2.00             0.20 ($2.00 * 10%)

Manufacturing overhead 1.60              0.16 ($1.60 * 10%)

Total cost                      $ 7.30            $1.10

Outside supplier's price for tubes = $1.20 per box

b) Unless there an alternative use for the machine used in making the tubes internally exists, it may not be cost-effective for Silven to buy from the outside supplier.  Alternatively, it should renegotiate a price per box that is less than $1.10 in order to stop making the tubes internally.
