Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

France:

Production cost per unit:

= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost

= 4,000,000,000 ÷ $3,500,000

= 1142.85714286

Productivity:

= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced

= 1142.85714286 ÷ 4,000,000,000

= 0.0000028571

Germany:

Production cost per unit:

= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost

= 5,500,000,000 ÷ $5,250,000

= 1047.61904762

Productivity:

= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced

= 1047.61904762 ÷ 5,500,000,000

= 0.00000019048

Spain:

Production cost per unit:

= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost

= 4,600,000,000 ÷ $5,250,000

= 876.19047619

Productivity:

= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced

= 876.19047619 ÷ 4,600,000,000

= 0.00000019048

France is higher than that of the factory in Spain.

Puget Sound Divers Planning Budget

For the Month Ended May 31

Budgeted diving-hours (q) 350

Revenue ($390.00q)                            $ 136,500

Expenses:

Wages and salaries ($11,100 + $120.00q) 53,100

Supplies ($5.00q)                                         1,750

Equipment rental ($2,500 + $25.00q)      11,250

Flexing the budget with actual activity of 340:

Revenue ($390.00q) $ 136,500/350 * 340 = $132,600

Expenses:

Wages and salaries ($11,100 + $120.00 * 340) = $51,900

Supplies ($5.00q)                                         1,750/350 * 340 = $1,700

Equipment rental ($2,500 + $25.00 * 340 = $11,000

Miscellaneous ($520 + $1.42 * 340 = $1,003

Granfield Company has a piece of manufacturing equipment with a book value of $35,500 and a remaining useful life of four years.
Doss [256]

Answer: Option (e) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Book value of manufacturing equipment = $35,500

Current market value of equipment = $21,100

Cost of new machine = $111,000

cash received from trading old machine = $21,100

Variable manufacturing costs of new machine reduce by $18,100 per year over the four-year =

Total increase/decrease in net income = Cost of new machine + cash received from trading old machine + Reduction in Variable manufacturing costs

                                                =  ($111,000) + $21,100 + $18,100 × 4

                                                = ($17,500)

Note: Bracket represents the negative values.

∴ The total decrease in net income by replacing the current machine with the new machine is $17,500.
