Answer:
b. Only Emerald Corporation's current ratio will be increased.
Explanation:
Given that
Emerald current ratio is
= 0.5 i.e. = 0.5 ÷ 1
now in case when the current liability is doubles , so the current assets is
= 0.5 + 1 = 1.5
And, the cuurrent liabilities is
= 1 + 1
= 2
so new ratio is
= 1.5 ÷ 2
= 0.75
Now
Ruby current ratio is
= 1.5
i.e. = 1.5 ÷ 1
Now in case when the current liability is doubled,
the current assets is
= 1.5 + 1
= 2.5
And, current liabilities is
= 1 + 1
= 2
Now new ratio is
= 2.5 ÷ 2
= 1.25
Therefore the emerald current ratio is rised from 0.5 to 0.75
And, the Ruby's ratio has decline from 1.5 to 1.25
Answer: Decrease, decrease
Explanation: Substitute goods are those goods that are used in place of each other. When the price of a substitute good falls, it becomes more attractive to the consumers. Here, wood planks and wood beams are substitutes to each other. So, when price of wood plank falls, demand for wood beams will decrease, shifting the demand curve to the left. As a result, of this the equilibrium price of wood beams and the quantity of wood beams will also decrease.
Answer:
A. $192,000
Explanation:
The computation of the labor related overhead cost is shown below:
= (Labor related overhead cost) ÷ (Total direct labor hours) × direct labor hours of X
= ($480,000) ÷ (16,000 hours + 24,000 hours) × 16,000 hours
= $192,000
