Answer:

It is more convenient to continue production in house.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The costs of producing 69,800 switches for its generators are as follows. Direct materials $29,700 Variable overhead $45,400 Direct labor $51,806 Fixed overhead $80,400 Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $2.97 ($207,306 ÷ 69,800), the company has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.74 per unit.

one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated.

Unitary variable cost= (29,700 + 45,400 + 51,806)/69,800= $1.82

Make in house= 1.82*69,800 + (80,400*0.25)= $147,136

Buy= 2.74*69,800= $191,252

It is more convenient to continue production in house.

Suppose that over the past year, the nominal interest rate was 5 percent, the CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

The nominal interest rate was 5 percent.

The CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI was 144.2 at the beginning of the year.

The 5% nominal interest rate means that the dollar value of savings increased at 5%.

Inflation rate

= \frac{(150.3 - 144.2)}{144.2}

= 0.0423 or 4.2%

The real interest rate

= Nominal interest rate - rate of inflation

= 5 - 4.2

= 0.8%

The real interest rate of 0.8% indicates that the purchasing power of savings increased at 0.8%.

Moonbeam Company manufactures toasters. For the first 8 months of 2020, the company reported the following operating results whi
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Moonbeam Company

a) Incremental analysis for the special order:

Sales revenue ($7.87 * 20,800) =   $163,696

Variable costs ($6.62 * 20,800) =    (137,696)

Contribution margin =                        26,000

Shipping costs                                     (2,900)

Net income from special order =     $23,100

b) Moonbeam should accept the special order.  It generates some net income for covering the company's fixed cost and does not exceed the company's plant capacity.  It only adds about 4% to the operating plant capacity.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                        Total               Variable        Fixed

Sales (375,200 units)  $4,378,000  

Cost of goods sold        2,588,880      1,812,216       776,664

Gross profit                     1,789,120

Operating expenses        839,510        671,608        167,902

Net income                    $949,610

Total costs                                       $2,483,824    $944,566

Selling price = $11.67 ($4,378,000/375,200)

Variable costs per unit = $6.62 ($2,483,824/375,200)

Total plant capacity = 500,267 units (375,200/75%)

Increase in plant capacity = 396,000 (375,200 + 20,800)
