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

total amount of money: $80

He spent $16 for the entrance of the fair and food.

A homeseller wants to net $75,000. The commission is 9%, the loan payoff is $450,000, and closing costs are $36,000. What must t
gregori [183]

Answer:

The home must sell for $616,500 to be able to settle all costs

Explanation:

The net to the formula can be used to ascertain the price of the property , the formula is given below:

Net amount=Sales price*(100%-commission rate)

The net to the seller in this case is the amount that seller would receive and be able to settle mortgage and closing costs and still be left with $75000

Net amount =$75000+$450000+$36000

                     =$561000

commission rate is 9%

$561000=sales price*(100-9%)

$561000=sales price*91%

sales price =$561000/91%

                  =616483.52

But to the nearest $100 is $616500

Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

If a company pays more in dividends than it generates in net income, its retained earnings as reported on the balance sheet will decline from the previous year's balance.

Explanation:

The dividend is shown while preparing the retained earning statement. So, it does not affect the net income.

The highly liquid marketable securities does not show a decline in the current assets

If the long term bonds are issued to purchase fixed assets it would show under the long term liabilities and the long term assets rather than the current assets and the current liabilities

Account receivable are reported in the current assets rather than the current liabilities

We know that

The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

If the dividend amount is more than the net income so the ending balance of retained earning will decline than its beginning year balance.

densk [106]

Answer:

Exact = $34.5

Ordinary = $35

Given that :

Principal, P = $1500

Interest rate = 14% = 0.14

Number of days = 60

Exact simple interest uses 365 days :

Simple interest = principal * rate * time

Simple interest = $1500 * 0.14 * 60 / 365 = 34.520547 = $34.5

For ordinary simple interest :

Simple interest = $1500 * 0.14 * 60 / 360 = $35
