Answer:
Explanation:
Last year Current year
Selling Price 10 10
Varaible Price 5 6
Contribution Margin 5 4
Break even is the point where total cost is equal to total revenue mean no profit and loss.
company earns the contribution margin after covering the variable cost, now only fix cost remains for break even.
Break Even using FIFO method : first In first out system
Fix Cost = 86000
contribution from opening units(6000*5) = 30000
Remaining Fix cost that should be Covered from
current year products = 56000
Units to be sold for break-even ( 56000/4) = 14000
so we have break even units 6000+14000 = 20000
Fix cost = -86000
Opening 6000*5 = 30000
Current 14000*4 = 56000
Profit = 0
Break Even using LIFO method : Last in first out
Fix Cost = 86000
Break even = Fix Cost / Contribution margin
Break even = 86000/4 =21500
current production is 24000 which is higher than break even units so we can cover the fix cost from current year production because company is using lifo method. we do not need opening units for the break even.
Answer:
a. $2,020 Favorable
Explanation:
The computation of spending variance for direct materials in April is shown below:-
For computing the spending variance for direct materials in April first we need to find out the actual price per unit which is here below:-
Actual price per unit = Actual direct material ÷ Actual units purchased
= $49,086 ÷ $5,060
= $9.70
Spending variance for direct materials in April = (Actual price per unit - Standard price per unit) × Actual quantity
= ($9.70 - $10.10) × 5,060
= -$0.4 × 5,060
= $2,024 Favorable
which is closest to $2,020 Favorable.
Answer:
At least during the last couple of decades, service firms tend to generate sustained growth while manufacturing firms do not.
Explanation:
The last president that recorded a steady manufacturing growth rate was Bill Clinton.
Service firms are growing steadily and probably will continue to do it. While manufacturing firms have been slowing down, their growth rate (if any) is not very large during the past few years and that tendency has increased with the new trade barriers imposed by our government during the last couple of years.
Another thing that helps the growth of service firms is that when manufacturing firms or agricultural firms grow, they need more services, so service firms will grow even more.
