Boney Corporation processes sugar beets that it purchases from farmers. Sugar beets are processed in batches. A batch of sugar b

eets costs $52 to buy from farmers and $11 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber, and beet juice emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $16 or processed further for $15 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $64. The beet juice can be sold as is for $47 or processed further for $19 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $64.
What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company from processing one batch of sugar beets into the end products industrial fiber and refined sugar rather than not processing that batch at all?

Answer:

$31

Explanation:

The incremental revenue and cost is calculated as stated below to arrive at the financial advantage

                              Beet Fiber          Beet Juice

Un processesd        16                         47                         63

Processed                64                         64                       128

Cost of further         15                         19                          34

Processing

Financial advantage = Incremental revenue - incremental cost

= 128-(63+24)= 31

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

However , i will like to mention that the financial advantage could have increased by $2 if the Beet juice is not processed further as the incremental cost is more than incremental revenue

Answer

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

Explanation:

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  </em>

<em>Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point (the cost of crushing) are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  </em>

<em>                                                                                                     $</em>

Sales revenue after the split off point( 64+64)                       128

Sales revenue at the split-off point (16+47)                            <u> 63</u>

Additional sales revenue                                                          65

Further processing cost ( 15+19)                                              <u>(34 )</u>

<em>Net income after further processing                                        31</em>

Financial advantage from further processing    $31

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

(a) Journalize the transactions, assuming that the common stock has a par value of $5 per share

                                                Debit                               Credit

Cash                                         150,000

Common Stock                                                                  150,000

Cash                                         420,000

Common stock                                                                300,000

Additional Paid in Capital                                                  120,000

The first entry we debit cash for 150,000 because 30,000 shares are sold at $5 so 30,000* 5= $150,000 and we credit common stock by 150,000 because the par value of the shares are 5 per share and 30,000*5= $150,000. Because the price and par value are the same there is no additional paid in capital

In the second Entry we debit cash for 420,000 because 60,000 shares are sold for $7 and 60,000*7= 420,000. We credit common stock by 300,000 because par value of share is $5 and 5*60,000 = 300,000. We Credit additional paid in capital by 120,000 because that is the difference between the par value of the shares and price of shares. (7-5)* 60,000= 2*60,000= 120,000

(b) Journalize the transactions, assuming that the common stock is no-par with a stated value of $1 per share.

                                             Debit                               Credit

Cash                                         150,000

Common Stock                                                                  30,000

Additional Paid in Capital                                                 120,000

Cash                                         420,000

Common stock                                                               60,000

Additional Paid in Capital                                               360,000

In the first entry we debit cash for 150,000 because 30,000 shares are sold at $5 so 30,000* 5= $150,000 and we credit common stock by 30,000 because the stated value of the stock per share is $1 and 1*30,000 = 30,000. We credit additional paid in capital by 120,000 because the difference between the price of the stock and stated value of the stock is 120,000. (5-1)*30,000= 4*30,000= 120,000

In the second Entry we debit cash for 420,000 because 60,000 shares are sold for $7 and 60,000*7= 420,000. We credit common stock by 60,000 because the stated value of the stock per share is $1 and 1*60,000 = 60,000 and we credit additional paid in capital by 360,000 because that is the difference between the price of the stock and stated value of the stock.

(7-1)*60,000=6*60,000= 360,000

Suppose the demand function for avocados is Q = 104 - 40p + 20tp + 0.01Y, where p is the price of avocados, pt is the price of t
LiRa [457]

Answer: equilibrium price = 4

Quantity of avocado = 110units

Explanation:

Q = 104 - 40p + 20tp + 0.01Y........eq1

Q = 58 + 15p - 20pf...........eq2

pt = $0.80,

Y = $4,000,

pf = $0.40

From eqn1 substituting of into it

Q = 104 - 40p + 20($0.80) + 0.01($4000)

= 104 - 40p + 16 + 40

= 160/40p

p = 4 equilibrium price

From eqn2. Substituting p and pf into it.

Q = 58 + 15p - 20pf

Q = 58 + 15(4) - 20($0.40).

Q = 58 + 60 - 8

Q = 110 quantity of avocado
