Answer:
Stone Foods produces the majority of its cheese products in its U.S. based dairy division at a total outlay cost of $6.00 per unit. A large portion of the finished product is sold to Division B where it is packaged and sold overseas under a different label. The tax rate in Division B's country is higher than the U.S. tax rate. Assume the company desires to minimize the overall tax impact of the transfer (i) what type of relative pre-tax income should each division desire to achieve as a result of the transfer and (ii) what type of transfer price would accomplish your answer to (i).
Dairy Division Income Division B Income Transfer Price
.
Option "D" is the correct answer - High Low High.
Explanation:
Since in Division B, the tax rate is higher than the tax rate in US-based dairy division. Therefore to minimize the impact of the overall tax, transfer price from dairy division should be high to Division B so that the dairy division income would be higher. and the income of Division B would be lower.
Hence option "D" is the correct answer.
Answer:
the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question:
- Investment in the business $17,010
-
Borrow cash $7,620
- Purchase equipment $8,300
-
Revenues earned $298,600
- Expenses incurred $210,900
- Dividends $15,000
since there is not enough room here, I used an excel spreadsheet. I assumed all sales were on cash and all expenses were also paid using cash.
Answer:
C. A capital expenditure.
Explanation:
This is an example of a capital expenditure as it makes significant improvements to the machines and extends the life considerably.
These types of expenses are capitalized in the balance sheets under the original asset name and the asset is revalued by the improvement cost and stated at net book value + improvement.
Revised depreciation is then calculated on this new NBV as applicable with increased life of asset.
Hope that helps.

Answer:
C) variable costs of $72,000 and $25,000 of fixed costs
Explanation:
To determine the flexible budget we must first calculate the variable costs of producing 8,000 units:
direct labor per unit = $40,000 / 5,000 units = $8 per unit
electric power per unit = $5,000 / 5,000 units = $1 per unit
total variable cost per unit = $8 + $1 = $9
Total variable costs for 8,000 units = 8,000 units x $9 per unit = $72,000
Total fixed costs = $25,000
