Answer:

The total cost is $1,796,600

Explanation:

Fixed costs are costs that do not change with the change in the volume of good or service sols, but under certain circumstances, when the fixed cost is a direct cost, it can vary on a per unit basis.

Variable costs are costs that change with the change of the volume of goods or service.

Total number of units = 138,200

variable cost per unit = $8

Total variable cost = 8 × 138,200 = 1,105,600

Fixed cost per unit = $5

Total fixed cost = 5 × 138,200 = 691,000

Total cost = 1,105,600 + 691,000 = $1,796,600

Vanguilder combines all manufacturing overhead into a single cost pool and allocates this overhead to products by using machine
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The company's high-volume products are overcosted.

Explanation:

Vanguilder is currently using a <em>traditional costing </em>which is easy because it often just divides some types of costs equally between different items.

To understand this we take the assumption given in the question that Vanguilder combines all manufacturing overhead into a single cost pool and allocates this overhead to products by using machine hours.

So, lets say that Vanguilder is producing 2 products then how will you divide the machine hours between these 2 products?

It's Easy;

The total cost of machine hours divided by units produced and we get the $ amount for each product. But what if product 1 uses more machine hours then product 2?

Is it still fair to write down same amount of machine hours for each product.

We should write bigger machine hour cost for the product 1, right?

This is where Activity Based Costing is different from Traditional Costing.

However, <em>Activity Based Costing</em> finds ways to divide or allocate these costs more proportionally or fairly.

We can write a higher cost for product which use more machine hours.

Hence the following option would be correct:

<em>The company's high-volume products are overcosted. </em>

As, low-volume products require less production allocated using overhead (such as machine hours) than high-volume products. Therefore low-volume product are  undercosted, while high-volume product are overcosted.

LenaWriter [7]

Answer: b. $106,700

Explanation:

The marketing and administrative expense budget is based on budgeted unit sales, which are 5,500 units for June.

Adrian contributed an antique vase she had owned for 25 years to a museum. At the time of the donation, the vase had a value of
EastWind [94]

Answer:

How much may Adrian deduct?

This depends on whether the museum is private or not. If the museum belongs to a public charity or a university, then Adrian can deduct full fair market value = $35,000. Since Adrian's AGI is $80,000, she could donate up to $40,000 (half her AGI).

But if the museum is a private organization, then Adrian can deduct only her basis in the vase = $15,000

How would your answer to Part a change if, instead of displaying the vase, the museum sold the vase to an antique dealer?

Once you donate artwork, unless you strict prohibit the museum from selling it, then they can sell it and you cannot do anything about it. Some donors specific certain terms for their donations, e.g. artwork cannot be sold and it must be exhibited at least a certain amount of time, in certain places, etc. But if Adrian didn't include any clause on her donation, then whatever happens to the vase is up to the museum.

Currently, museums are less likely to accept restricted donations, unless of course the artwork is worth it.
