Answer:

Explanation:

1. Mineral mine - $9.3 million

Development costs - $2500 000

1/[(1+0.07)^4]=0.76290

Restoration costs = $472995 = [(530k * 0.4)+(630k * 0.3)+($730k * 0.3)] *0.76290

Cost of mine= $9.3 million+$2500 000+$472995 = $12272995

2. Depletion:

($12272995/730000tons)*113000tons=$1899792

Depreciation of machinery=($143400-$12000)/730000 * 113000tons = $20340

Depreciation of structures=($36500/730000tons)*113000tons=$5650

3. Accrecion expense recognized:

$472995*0.07*8/12=$22073

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Its fixed costs are $1000 a week and its variable costs for one batch of umbrellas per week are $500 for 2000 units.

After doing market research, the company sets the price per umbrella at $11.

Unitary variable cost= 500/2,000= $0.25

To calculate the break-even point in units, we  need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 1,000/ (11 - 0.25)

Break-even point in units= 93 units
