The answer for Equivalent units for the period will be calculated as follows under FIFO
1. Units from beginning work in process: calculate this as beginning work in process units x (100% – given % complete) to calculate the amount of additional work needed to make the unit 100% complete.2. Units in progress and completed this period: take the units x 100% complete since they were started and completed they have received all of their materials, labor and overhead and will not receive any more since they are finished.3. Units in Ending work in process: take the ending work in process units x a given % complete.
Solution by step:
Equivalent units = 1. (5,000 × 40%) +2. (31,000 – 5,000) (Since there is a beginning work in process deduct this from the units completed) +3. (2,000 × 80%)
= 2000 + 26000 + 1600
Answer = 29,600 units
Answer:
A. 52% and $11 per unit
Explanation:
The contribution margin ratio is a measure of how much of a business revenue is available for covering its variable expenses. It also reveals how much is left to cover its fixed cost. The contribution margin is the unit income generated from each product sold. To calculate contribution margin ratio we divide contribution margin by sales. i.e
Contribution margin ratio = (contribution margin)/sales
Contribution margin = (sales - variable expenses)/sales
OR
contribution margin = (selling price - average variable cost)/ selling price
Since selling price is $21 and average variable cost is $10
contribution margin = (21 - 10)/21
= 11/21
=52.38% or 0.5238
Contribution margin = $21 - $10
= $11
thus, A. 52% and $11 per unit is the answer.
variable cost per unit also means average variable cost.
Answer:
$480
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Machine Hours Repair Costs
2,400 $6,385
1,200 $3,480
2,000 $5,285
3,400 $8,980
Now,
Machine Hours Repair Costs
Highest 3,400 $8,980
Lowest 1,200 $3,480
Difference 2,200 $5,500
Unit variable cost = $5,500 ÷ 2,200
= $2.5
Total cost at high level = $8,980
Machine hours highest level = 3,400
Also,
Total cost at high level = Fixed cost + Variable cost at highest level
or
$8,980 = Fixed cost + [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
or
Fixed cost = $8,980 - [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
= $8,980 - $8,500
= $480
