Answer:

There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.

Explanation:

Variable cost is a cost that varies with number of units produced or sold so it is always a relevant cost while making decision.

Fixed cost remains constant irrespective of number of units so it is a irrelevant cost unless avoidable.So in the given case ,fixed cost $70 is irrelevant since same will be incurred whether purchased or manufactured.

Incremental savings  

Saving in variable cost   220

saving in fixed cost   25

Total saving                   245

less: Incremental cost (270)

Incremental profit /(loss) on buying from outside supplier (25)

Total loss 25*5900= -147500

Therefore, There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

c. $215,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount charged to income is shown below:

But before that first we have to determine the book value as on Jan 2024 which is

Total patent cost

= $200,000 + $50,000

= $250,000

Amortized cost till year 2024 is

= ($250,000 ÷ 10 years) × 3 years

= $75,000

The three years is counted from 2021 to 2024

Now

Book value on Jan 2024 is

= $250,000 - $75,000

= $175,000

So,

Amount charged to income  is

= $175,000 + $40,000

= $215,000

Building Supplies is considering a merger with Tools and More. Building's total operating costs of producing services are $4 mil
Natalka [10]

Answer:

We generally calculate total average cost by dividing total cost / total output units.

In this case, we are not given the output units, but instead we are given the output value, so we should find a percentage from total revenue.

total costs = $4,800,000

total revenue = $20,000,000 + $5,000,000 = $25,000,000

average total cost = ($4,800,000 / $25,000,000) x 100 = 19.2%

This means that for every $100 of revenue, the merged company will spend $19.20.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

b.if 100 units can be produced for $100, then 150 can be produced for $150, 200 for $200, and so forth.

Explanation:

Constant-cost means the cost of producing one unit of product does not change no matter how many products each firm in the industry decide to produce.

If the cost of production is $100 for 100 units, $150 for 150 units, $200 for 200 units and so forth, it means the unit production cost is a constant $1 regardless of the quantity to be produced.
