Answer:

Explanation:

A. Supply stays the same, demand decreases since restaurants are normal goods. As a result, the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity will go down.

B. In the short run, the existing firms reduce their output causing Q* to fall. In the long run, as firms exit, Q* falls even further.

C. An individual firm may produce in the short run, but exit from the industry in the long run. As a result, the firm will decrease its quantity produced up to 0. Therefore, in the long run the output of an individual firm may change drastically comparing with the short run.

g Hochberg Corporation uses an activity-based costing system with the following three activity cost pools: Activity Cost Pool To
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: $2.81 per machine hour

Explanation:

Wages and salaries $ 423,000

Activity cost pools 10%

Allocated amount = 10% of $423000

= 0.1 × 423000

= $42,300

Depreciation = $112,000

Activity cost pools 10%

Allocated amount = 10% of 112,000

= 0.1 × 112000

= $11200

Occupancy 154,000

Activity cost pools 20%

Allocated amount = 20% of 154000

= 0.2 × 154000

= $30800

Total allocated amount = $42300 + $11200 + $30800 = $84300

The cost hour is the machine hour which is 30,000

Rate per machine hour = total allocated amount/machine hour

= 84300/30000

= $2.81 per machine hour

Nombre Company management predicts $430,000 of variable costs, $970,000 of fixed costs, and a pretax income of $275,500 in the n
inn [45]

Answer:

The total amount of dollar sales for the next period is $1,675,500

The number of units to be sold next period is 23,500

Explanation:

The sales less the total cost gives the pretax income. The costs are the fixed and variable cost. Contribution margin is the sales less the variable cost. Hence the pretax income is the difference between the contribution margin and the fixed cost.

Let the total sales in dollars be G

G - $430,000 - $970,000 = $275,500

G = $275,500 + $430,000 + $970,000

G = $1,675,500

Hence the total contribution margin

=  $1,675,500  - $430,000

= $1,245,500

Let the total number of units to be sold be t

$1,245,500 /t = $53

t = $1,245,500 /53

= 23,500
