Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

The average fixed cost is determined by dividing the total fixed cost by number of units produced.

Given that,

Fixed cost = $24

The average fixed cost of producing 3 units of output is:

= Total Fixed cost ÷  Number of units produced

= $24 ÷  3

= 8

Therefore, the average fixed cost of producing 3 units of output is $8.00.

Peggy Lane​ Corp., a producer of machine​ tools, wants to move to a larger site. Two alternative locations have been​ identified
Alborosie

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Two alternative locations have been​ identified: Bonham and McKinney. Bonham would have fixed costs of $ 800,000 per year and variable costs of $ 13,000 per standard unit produced. McKinney would have annual fixed costs of $ 920,000 and variable costs of $ 12,000 per standard unit. The finished items sell for $ 29,000 each.

Costs:

Bonham= 800,000 + 13,000*x

McKinney= 920,000 + 12,000*x

1) 800,000 + 13,000*x=920,000 + 12,000*x

1,000x=120,00

x=120 units

2) Because Bonham has a higher variable cost, from the indifference point and below, it generates a higher profit. From 120 units and more it generates less profit than McKinney.

3) Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Bonham:

Break-even point= 800,000/(29,000 - 12,000)= 47 units

McKinney:

Break-even point= 920,000/(29,000-13,000)= 58 units

never [62]

Answer:

The answer is a) Credit to additional Paid In Capital: Treasury Stock Transactions of $10,000.

Explanation:

The repurchased price per share in April 16,2018 is equal to: 660,000/12,000 = $55 per share;

Thus, once the reissued of these 12,000 repurchased shared took place, common stock account will be credited at the amount equal to 55 x Number of share reissued. In case the reissued price is higher than $55, the surplus amount will be Credited into Paid-in Common share account to present the difference between cash receipt and common share recorded; in case reissued price is lower than $55, Retained earning account will be debited to present the difference between cash receipt and common share recorded

As a result, the reissued of share on November 4,2019 will include a $10,00 credited to additional Paid In Capital; calculated as (65-55) x 1,000 = $10,000.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

According to the mainstream business cycle theory, the potential GDP grows at a steady rate while the aggregate demand grows at a fluctuating rate. The money wage rate is considered to be sticky.  

So when aggregate demand increases more than the potential GDP, the supply is not able to increase as much as demand. This creates an inflationary gap in the economy.
