Answer:

Does not have the ability to control the price of the product it sells

Explanation:

A price taker is a firm that doesn't have the ability to control the price of the product they sell.

Price taker exist in a perfectly competitive market where individual firms cannot dictate prices of goods and services.

A perfectly competitive market is characterised by

1) presence of large number of buyers and sellers.

2) There is free entry and exit.

3) Sellers sell homogenous product, that is, identical product.

4) Buyers have access to information.

In contrast to price taker, we also have price makers who have the ability to control the prices of product they sell.

A study has been conducted to determine if Product A should be dropped. Sales of the product total $224,000 per year; variable e
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: Decrease by $11,200 per year.

Explanation:

First let's calculate the income if the product is not dropped.

Calculting income would be,

= Sales - Variable Costs - Fixed Costs

= 224,000 - 156,800 - 100,800

= -$33,600

Income(loss) would be a ($33,600) if the product is kept.

If the product is discontinued, it is given that $44,800 in fixed costs will still continue.

These fixed costs cannot be covered in part by the Sales because the product will be discontinued. So that means the net operating Income would simply be a $44,800 loss.

The difference between these 2 options is therefore,

= 44,800 - 33,600

= $11,200

This means that if Product A is stopped, the net operating income will decrease by a further $11,200 because there is no revenue to cover the fixed assets in part. The last option is correct.

fields company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. the company uses the weighted average method and it repo
UNO [17]

The equivalent units of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 369,000, 384,000. b. The costs per equivalent unit of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 4.898, 3.129.

<h3>Equivalent unit of material  and conversion</h3>

1. Equivalent unit of material  and conversion

Unit transferred out = 34,500+490000-30000

Unit transferred out= 394,500

Equivalent unit of material = 394,500+(30000×85%)

Equivalent unit of material= 369,000

Equivalent unit of conversion = 394,500+(30000×35%)

Equivalent unit of conversion = 384,000

2. Cost per equivalent unit

Material = (56,200+1,800,200)/379,000 = 4.898

Conversion = (22,900+1,179,000)/384,000 = 3.129

3. Total Cost assigned

Cost assignment and reconciliation

Cost of units transferred out  

Direct material= (394,500×4.898)

Direct material=1,932,261

Conversion=394,500×3.129

Conversion=1,234,391

Total Cost transferred out=1,932,261+1,234,391

Total Cost transferred out=3,166,652

Cost of ending work in process:

Direct material=(394,500-369,000)×4.898

Direct material=124,899

Conversion=(384,000-369,000)×3.129

Conversion=49,935

Total Cost of ending work in process= 124,899+49,935

Total Cost of ending work in process= 171,834

Hence:

Total Cost assigned=Total Cost transferred out+Total Cost of ending work in process

Total Cost assigned=3,166,652+171,834

Total Cost assigned=3,338,486

Therefore the equivalent units of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 369,000, 384,000. b. The costs per equivalent unit of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 4.898, 3.129.
