Answer:

D. I, II, and II, All three factors may contribute to value stocks providing better returns

If value stocks are out of favor with investors , they will be selling at a low price therefore the return will be higher in the future.

If price of growth stocks includes premiums then they will be selling at high price multiple therefore lowering the future return and they may also be overvalued.

If value stocks are likely to generate positive earning surprises then they are likely to give good returns.

Classify each of the following as direct or indirect with respect to traceability to product and as variable or fixed with respe
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The answers are as follows;

1. Direct; variable

2. Indirect; variable

3. Direct; variable

4. Indirect; variable

Explanation:

Just as stated in the question,

Direct costs are directly associated/traceable to product

Indirect costs do not have direct association to product, but enhance production

Variable costs are costs that change as volume of production change

fixed costs are costs that do not change with changing volume of product.

Not let me explain the choices one after the other

1. The cost of components that are assembled into a final product; because the components are assembled to form the product, they are directly linked to product, hence the cost is direct, and the total number of components will determine the total volume of product, so if a higher number of product is to be produced, then the total number of components to be purchased will increase, which will in turn increase the total cost of purchasing the components, hence the cost is variable, not fixed.

2. The cost of supplies consumed when maintenance is performed on machines; maintenance of machines do not have direct effect on product, but on the machines used in production, hence the cost here is indirect, the need for maintenance will arise more, depending on the frequency at which the machine is used, so the more frequently the machine is used the higher the product volume and the more the need for maintenance, therefore making cost of maintenance variable. This type of variable cost is known as variable overhead cost, because the price per unit of product is the same, but the total price increases as total product volume increase

3. The wages of machine operators who work on only one product; machine operators are directly involved in production, they operate the production tool, hence their wages is a direct, cost, and since the wage is paid on manufacture of only one product, it means that as the product volume increase, from one to two, the operator will be paid twice, hence is a variable cost. This cost would have been fixed if the operators were not paid per product, but paid monthly, so depending on the volume of product, they have a certain monthly salary.

4. The cost of training mechanics who service processing machinery; mechanics who service machinery, have direct effect on machinery not product, hence the cost of training these mechanics is indirect cost, Increase in the volume of product produced, may call for the acquisition of more machines and the need to employ more mechanics, which implies more cost of training, hence it is a variable cost.

Finding Unknown Values in the Cost of Goods Manufactured Report [LO 2-3, 2-6]Mulligan Manufacturing Company uses a job order cos
KiRa [710]

Answer:

<u>For Case 1:</u>

Manufacturing overhead applied = 27,000

Total current manufacturing costs = 60,000

Cost of goods manufactured = 64,000

Cost of goods sold = 61,100

<u>For Case 2:</u>

Direct labor = 7,667

Direct material used = 8,333

Beginning work in process inventory = 26,400

Ending finished goods inventory = 15,000

<u>For Case 3:</u>

Direct labor = 5,760

Manufacturing overhead applied = 8,640

Ending work in process inventory = 10,499

Beginning finished goods inventory = 16,199

Explanation:

Note: The data in the question are merged together. The data are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

Also note: See the attached excel file for the table with the computed figure in bold red color.

In the attached excel file, the following calculations are employed:

<u>For Case 1:</u>

Since overhead applied to products at a rate of 150 percent of direct labor cost, we have:

Manufacturing overhead applied = Direct labor * 150% = 18,000 * 150% = 27,000

Total current manufacturing costs = Direct material used + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead applied = 15,000 + 18,000 + 27,000 = 60,000

Cost of goods manufactured = Total current manufacturing costs + Beginning work in process inventory - Ending work in process inventory = 60,000 + 9,900 - 5,900 = 64,000

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured + Beginning finished goods inventory - Ending finished goods inventory = 64,000 + 4,700 - 7,600 = 61,100

<u>For Case 2:</u>

Since overhead applied to products at a rate of 150 percent of direct labor cost, we have:

Direct labor = (Manufacturing overhead applied / 150%) * 100% = (11,500 / 150%) * 100% = 7,667

Direct material used = Total current manufacturing costs - Manufacturing overhead applied - Direct labor =   27,500 - 11,500 - 7,667 = 8,333

Beginning work in process inventory = Cost of goods manufactured + Ending work in process inventory -   Total current manufacturing costs = 44,000 + 9,900 - 27,500 = 26,400

Ending finished goods inventory = Cost of goods manufactured + Beginning finished goods inventory - Cost of goods sold = 44,000 + 12,000 – 41,000 = 15,000

<u>For Case 3:</u>

Since overhead applied to products at a rate of 150 percent of direct labor cost, we can let:

Direct labor = x

Therefore, we have:

Manufacturing overhead applied = x * 150%

Since,

Total current manufacturing costs = Direct material used + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead applied ……………………….. (1)

Where;

Total current manufacturing costs = 28,500

Direct material used = 14,100

We can therefore substitute the relevant values into equation (1) and solve for x as follows:

28,500 = 14,100 + x + 1.5x

28,500 - 14,100 = 2.5x

14,400 = 2.5x

x = 14,400 / 2.5

x = 5,760

Therefore;

Direct labor = x = 5,760

and

Manufacturing overhead applied = x * 150% = 5,760 * 150% = 8,640

Ending work in process inventory = Total current manufacturing costs + Beginning work in process inventory - Cost of goods manufactured = 28,500 + 8,000 - 26,001 = 10,499

Beginning finished goods inventory = Cost of goods sold + Ending finished goods inventory - Cost of goods manufactured = 36,000 + 6,200 - 26,001 = 16,199

Small businesses can often provide more personalized customer service than bigger rivals.A. trueB. False
AnnZ [28]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

Personalized services are services that are flexible in delivery and can change with individual preferences.

Smaller businesses find it easier to render customised services to their customers, because their customers are fewer and they are eager to get more, which makes them to put in extra effort, in satisfying each customer.

Bigger businesses have a larger customers population and has a difficulty most times in totally satisfying their every needs.
