Answer:
Effect on income= $4,500 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Special offer: 9,000 units of product S51 for $20.50 a unit.
Direct materials $ 3.10
Direct labor 1.50
Variable overhead 6.40
The customer would like modifications made to product S51 that would increase the variable costs by $5.00 per unit and that would require an investment of $36,000 in special molds that would have no salvage value.
<u>Because it is a special offer, we will not have into account the fixed costs.</u>
Unitary variable cost= 3.1 + 1.5 + 6.4 + 5= $16
Investment= 36,000
Effect on income= 9,000* (20.5 - 16) - 36,000
Effect on income= 40,500 - 36,000
Effect on income= $4,500 increase
Answer:
Decrease in Bank balance and increase in fixed assets
Explanation:
When a new depreciable asset is purchased, the money leaves the bank account hence reducing the bank balance in the statement of financial position, and on the other hand the 'Fixed asset' balance will rise by the same amount; recognizing the addition to the assets of the company. In this scenario the balance sheet totals remain unchanged as the same amount has been subtracted from 'bank' and added to 'fixed assets' all within the asset side.
However, if the asset is debt financed, it will increase the long term liability figure because 'bank loan' will be recognized. Hence the totals of the balance sheet will rise by the amount of the loan on the 'Capital and liabilities' side and the amount of the asset on the 'Asset' side.
Another impact is that the amount of depreciation charged to the Income Statement will be higher than $2,946,667 which was charged in the previous year because the new asset's depreciation will have to be added.
If this is a true or false question, then yes, it is <u>true</u> that the selection of the factory overhead allocation method is important because the method selected determines the accuracy of the product cost.It is important to determine the appropriate method to allocate overhead in a certain factory so as to ensure that the cost of a product is suitable and accurate.
