Answer:

13,000 units.

Explanation:

High-Low level method formula:

Variable Cost per unit = (Y2 - Y1) ÷ (X2 - X1)

y2 is the total cost at highest level of activity;

y1 is the total cost at lowest level of activity;

x2 are the number of units/labor hours etc. at highest level of activity; and

x1 are the number of units/labor hours etc. at lowest level of activity

= ($20,900 - $15,500) ÷ (1900 - 1100 )

= $6.75 per unit.

Mark’s monthly Salary = Total Compensation – Sales commission

                                      = $20,900 - 1900 × $6.75

                                      = $8,075

Calculation of the total number of units sold in a year when Mark's total compensation amounted to $184,650:

Sales Commission earned by Mark:

= Total Compensation - Mark’s yearly Salary

= $184,650 - ($8,075 × 12)

= $87,750

Calculation of total number of units sold in a year:

= Sales Commission earned during the year ÷ Sales Commission per unit

= 87,750 ÷ $6.75

= 13,000 units.

Answer:

CREDIT $ 14.000 Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value

 

DEBIT $ 43.000 Promotion Expenses  

CREDIT $ 3.500        Common Stock  

CREDIT $ 39.500 Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value  

DEBIT $ 43.000 Promotion Expenses  

CREDIT $ 43.000 Common Stock  

DEBIT $ 218.000 Cash  

CREDIT $ 175.000 Preferred Stock  

CREDIT $ 43.000 Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value  

Explanation:

DEBIT $ 84.000 Cash  

CREDIT $ 70.000 Common Stock  

CREDIT $ 14.000         Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value  

As the company declared a par value, it's necessary to split the equity in two accounts, Common Stock  

for the stated value ($70,000) and the Paid in Capital for the excess of cash over the Common Stock ($14,000)  

DEBIT $ 43.000 Promotion Expenses  

CREDIT $ 3.500        Common Stock  

CREDIT $ 39.500 Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value  

As the company declared a par value, it's necessary to split the equity in two accounts, Common Stock  

for the stated value ($3,500) and the Paid in Capital for the excess of the price over the Common Stock ($39,500)  

In this case there is no cash because the shares are in exchange for the promotions effort (Expenses)

DEBIT $ 43.000 Promotion Expenses  

CREDIT $ 43.000 Common Stock  

As the company declared no-par value, it's not necessary to split the equity in two accounts, full value to common stocks account

In this case there is no cash because the shares are in exchange for the promotions effort (Expenses)

DEBIT $ 218.000 Cash  

CREDIT $ 175.000 Preferred Stock  

CREDIT $ 43.000 Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par Value  

Last escenario the company declared preffered stock and not Common ones, so the equity account in this case it's Preferred stock  

as the par value it's $100 ($175,000) to Preferred Stock and Paid in Capital for the excess of the price ($43,000)

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": legislation cannot repeal basic economic motives.

Explanation:

Government price controls are regulations imposed by the central government of a country to set limits on prices of certain goods or services because of a surplus, shortage or simply to maintain the demand and supply of those products at their equilibrium level.  

However, the demand for some of those products could be unpredictable because individuals could react in opposite directions even if the government has set rules against consumers' favor. <em>Customers' motives might not be always repealed by legislation</em>.
