To solve: add up all in the labor costs and then divide by the number of units produced to get the per unit cost of the labor.
<span>Direct materials = $4,400
Direct labor = $5,600
Factory overhead = $2,400
Units produced = 1,000
Per unit cost = ($4,400 + $5,600 + $2,400)/1,000
Per unit cost = $12,400/1,000
Per unit cost = $12.40</span>
Answer:
Discount on bonds issuance = $15750
Explanation:
A bond is issued at a discount when the issue price of the bond is less than the face value of the bond. This usually happens when the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. To calculate the amount of discount on bonds issuance, we simply deduct the issue price from the face value of the bond. Thus,
Discount on Bonds = Face value - Issue price
As we know the face value of the bonds is $700000 and the issue price is $684250, we can calculate the discount on issuance to be,
Discount on bonds issuance = 700000 - 684250
Discount on bonds issuance = $15750
Answer:
a. in order to calculate this we must assume that the economy entered a recession:
degree of operating leverage = [($20 - $70)/$70] / [($260 - $520)/$520] = -0.7143 / -0.5 = 1.43
b. $14 million
Explanation:
strong economy:
total sales $520 million
<u>variable costs $420 million</u>
gross profit $100 million
<u>fixed costs $30 million</u>
EBIT $70 million
<u>income taxes $21 million</u>
net income $49 million
weak economy:
total sales $260 million
<u>variable costs $210 million</u>
gross profit $50 million
<u>fixed costs $30 million</u>
EBIT $20 million
<u>income taxes $6 million</u>
net income $14 million
I wholeheartedly agree and think it’s practically self-evident.
Here’s an excellent example from history.
For 28 years, the Berlin Wall separated East Berlin from West Berlin and was the most heavily militarized border crossing in the Western hemisphere. In 1989, during a press conference with western media, Gunther Schabowski was handed a note explaining a change in policy governing border crossing. Several discussions took place about making a show of opening the border between East and West Germany, but nobody informed Schabowski.
At the end of the press conference, he appears to have remembered the note belatedly, and read it verbatim—which was not what was intended. When asked about when the border would open, he assumed it was immediate.
The reality of course was that East Germany had no intention of opening the border, and certainly not immediately.
Within hours, the border crossing was practically buried under thousands of East Germans eager to be reunited with their families and other loved ones after 28 years on the press conference, which had been broadcast live.
The East Germans believed what they were told: Schabowski said immediately, and they intended to go immediately.
Border guards kept calling for instructions, until finally, they relented.
Perception became reality, and the border between East and West Berlin opened, spelling the de facto end of the separation of Germany.
