Answer:

1. 250 wood tables

2. 250 wood tables

3. $37,500

4. 130 wood tables

Explanation:

Sales (units) required to earn a target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution per unit

Where,

Contribution per unit = Selling Price per unit - Variable Costs per unit

                                   = $150 - $60

                                   = $90

Therefore,

Sales (units) required to earn a target profit = ($11, 700 +  $10, 800) ÷ $90

                                                                        =  250 wood tables

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

                                           = $90 / $150 × 100

                                           = 60 %

Sales (dollars) required to earn a target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

                                            = ($11, 700 +  $10, 800) ÷ 60%

                                           = $37,500

Sales in Units to Break Even = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

                                               = $11, 700 ÷ $90

                                               = 130 wood tables

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: $60.

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is what a person sacrifices when they choose one option over another. It is also defined as the revenue of the chosen option over the revenue of the option that was forgone. It represents what was left on the table for deciding taking one option over another.

In Ben's case, the opportunity cost of going to the event represents what he could have earned working for three hours (<em>$10 x 3 = $30</em>). However, as he will have to pay for the event, he will lose $30 for the event ticket. Then, the total opportunity cost of going to the event is:

$30 + $30 = $60

Suppose a basket of goods and services has been selected to calculate the CPI and 2012 has been selected as the base year. In 20
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a. 116.9 and the inflation rate was 16.9%

Explanation:

<u>Definition</u>

Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a statistical measure that is constructed using a weighted average market basket of consumer goods and services produced by a household.

CPI = (Cost of market basket ₓ / Cost of market basket ₓ₁) * 100

where x = present year(2014) and x1 = base year(2012)

CPI = (90/77) * 100

CPI = 116.88

CPI = 116.9 (to 1 decimal place)

Inflation =<u>Current year basket cost - Base year basket cost</u>    * 100

                                    Base year basket cost

Inflation = <u>90-77</u>  * 100

                   77

Inflation = 16.88

Inflation = 16.9% ( to 1 decimal place)

romanna [79]

Answer:

Details below

Explanation:

For issuance of an entry a single transaction is recorded that is work in process account is debited and materials inventory account is credited. In subsidiary ledgers job numbers are debited. For indirect Materials factory overhead is debited.

The  given data is as follows.

Requisition No.            Material         Job No.             Amount

103                                 Plastic              400                 $ 2,800

104                                 Steel                402                    24,000

105                                 Glue Indirect   1,620

106                                  Rubber             403                   3,200

107                                 Titanium           404                    31,600

The entry for materials requisitioned will be

A compound entry can be passed. In this the subsidiary ledger is not included.

Sr. No                  Particulars                                 Debit           Credit                                            

                   Work In Process                             61600

                Factory Overhead                               1620

               Materials Inventory                                                 63200

The one with a subsidiary ledger would look like this.

Sr. No                  Particulars                                 Debit           Credit

                                                      (Subsidiary)

1                     Work In Process                           61600

                                                  ( Job No 400)   2800

                                                   ( Job No 402)   24000

                                                    ( Job No 403)   3200

                                                    ( Job No 404)   31600

               Materials Inventory                                                 63200
