Answer:

1. Opportunity Cost of 2nd truck from 1st Truck = 1T : 3P

2. Opportunity Cost of 3rd truck from 2nd truck = 1T : 5P

Explanation:

Choice                             Hours Producing                          Produced

                                         (Trucks) (Puzzles)                     (Trucks) (Puzzles)

A                                              8          0                                    4          0

B                                               6          2                                   3          11

C                                               4          4                                  2           16

D                                               2          6                                  1            19

E                                                0          8                                 0           20

Opportunity Cost is the cost of a good sacrifised to achieve additional unit of other good.

  • From point D ( 1 truck) to point C ( 2nd truck ), opportunity cost in terms of puzzles sacrifised is 19 - 16 = 3. So, opportunity cost is    1T : 3P
  • From point C ( 2 trucks ) to point D (3rd truck ), opportunity cost in terms of puzzles sacrifised is 16 - 11 = 5. So, opportunity cost is    1T : 5P

Given the following cost and activity observations for Bounty Company's utilities, use the high-low method to calculate Bounty'
Leona [35]

Answer:

The option d is correct.

Explanation:

The high low method shows the difference between the high and low cost of a particular thing. In the given question, the high cost is $3,600 and the low cost is $2,700 whereas the high machine hour is 18000 and low machine hour is 10,000.

Now, the formula for high low method is calculated. It is shown below:

High low method =  (High cost - Low cost) ÷ (High machine hours - Low machine hours)

= ($3,600 - $2,700) ÷ (18000 - 10,000)

= 900 ÷ 8000

= 0.11

Thus, the option d is correct.

enot [183]

Answer:

Rent expense (Dr,)              $9,800

              Prepaid Rent                             $9,800

Explanation:

The accrual concept of accounting requires us to record the expenses in a period in which they are incurred rather than when cash is paid. When the company paid advance rent of six months at the end of October, it will record a current asset (Unexpired resource) on the face of balance sheet. At the end each accounting period, it is required to expense out the resources (benefits) that are expired (utilized). This can be done through straight-line method. So, on December 31, 2019, the rent expense of two months that is of November and December should be charged to profit and loss statement in-order to record the expense of related period.

<u>Workings</u>

Rent expense per month = 29,400 / 6 = $4,900.

⇒ Rent expense of two months = 4,900 * 2 = $9,800.

This amount should be written off and the required adjusting entry is:

Rent expense (Dr,)              $9,800

            Prepaid Rent                             $9,800
