denpristay [2]

Answer:

It is cheaper to buy the part. The company will save $5,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

UNitary production cost:

Direct Materials $10.50

Direct labor $24.00

Variable factory overhead $ 5.50

Total avoidable Fixed factory overhead= (12*1,000) - 5,000= 7,000

Larson Company has offered to sell 1,000 units of the same part to Scott Corporation for $42 per unit.

First, we need to calculate the total cost of making the units:

Total cost= (10.5 + 24 + 5.5)*1,000 + 7,000= $47,000

Now, the total cost of buying them:

Buy= 1,000*42= $42,000

It is cheaper to buy the part. The company will save $5,000.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Current share price =$77.81

Explanation:

Price of the stock today = $\frac{D1}{(1+ke)^1}+\frac{D2}{(1+ke)^2}+\frac{D3}{(1+ke)^3}+\frac{D4}{(1+ke)^4}+\frac{P4}{(1+ke)^4}$ .

where P4 = $\frac{D5}{ke-g}$

where D5 = D4(1+g)

Price of the stock today = $\frac{16}{(1+0.16)^1}+\frac{12}{(1+0.16)^2}+\frac{11}{(1+0.16)^3}+\frac{7.50}{(1+0.16)^4}+\frac{7.50(1.06)}{(0.16-0.06)(1+0.16)^4}$ = $77.81

Suppose you are the manager of a watchmaking firm operating in a competitive market. Your cost of production is given by C = 200

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

1. 20 units

2. $600

Explanation:

1. $C = 200 + 2q^{2}$

MC = 4q

Price, P = $80

For maximizing profits,

Marginal cost = Price of the commodity

4q = 80

q = 20 units

$C = 200 + 2q^{2}$

$C = 200 + 2(20)^{2}$

= 200 + 800

= 1,000

2. Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

= (Price × Quantity) - TC

= (80 × 20) - $1,000

= $1,600 - $1,000

= $600

3. We know that the firm in the short run will be produce at a point where total revenue is greater than the total variable cost

Average variable cost = variable cost ÷ quantity

$=\frac{2Q^{2}}{Q}$

= 2Q

MC = 4Q

Here, MC is greater than AVC at any given point.

so in the short run firm will producing short run positive profit.

A company purchases merchandise with a catalog price of $30,000. The company receives a 40% trade discount from the seller. The

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$17,820

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000

Trade discount received = 40%

The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000

= 0.4 × $30,000

= $12,000

Therefore,

Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount

= $30,000 - $12,000

= $18,000

also,

credit terms = 1/10, n/30

since, the payment was made within the discount period

1% of discount will be provided

thus,

amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise

= 0.01 × $18,000

= $180

hence,

Net cost of the merchandise

= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms

= $18,000 - $180

= $17,820
