Answer:
D. have separate cost allocation rates for each activity identified by the company CORRECT
There will be activity cost pool which, will be distribute among the product using different cost driver like machien hours, direct labor hours or other.
Explanation:
A. have the same cost allocation system as plantwide and departmental cost allocation systems
NO If it was, then it would not have a different name
B. have no cost allocation rates for each activity identified by the company
If we don't have rates to distrubte cost then, the allocation will be arbitrary
C. have combined cost allocation rates for each activity identified by the company
each should have different base cost driver if not, then they aren't different and should be combined.
Answer:
D. Should Shut Down
Explanation:
A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .
If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.
However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.
Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.
Answer:
b. 8.225%
Explanation:
The rate formula will be used to solve this question.
Please note that the NPER represents the time value.
Where;
Present value is $754.08
Let's assume that the face value is $1,000
PMT= 1,000 x 7.25% ÷2
=$36.25
NPER= 9 years x 2
= 18 years
The formulae is therefore
Rate(NPER,PMT,-,PV,FV)
The value of the present value is negative.
a. The pretax would therefore be 11.75%
b. After tax cost of debt would be ;
Pretax cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)
11.75% x (1 - 30%)
11.75% x (1 - 0.03)
=8.225%.
Answer:
Correct answer is D. All future costs, both variable and fixed
Explanation:
In target costing, all future costs both variable and fixed costs are relevant. This is for us to clearly determine the desired profit that the company wants to attain. The process of costing is to determine all future costs that the company will possibly incur in the production and add it to the desired profit margin to know the unit sales price of the product.
