Remainder part of the question:

This turned out to be a very poor growth strategy because

A. the capital stock was increasing less rapidly than technology.

B. the amount of labor per unit of capital was increasing.

C. there were diminishing returns to capital.

D. the amount of capital per hour worked was decreasing

Answer:

Option C There were diminishing returns to capital.

Explanation:

The reason is that the investment gave diminishing returns which didn't covered its cost of capital (the cost that we pay to finance providers). This diminishing returns limited the investment in the forthcoming period and as result we see the fall of Soviet Union. So this option provides a better insight to the poor growth strategy. The investment must be in projects that generates greater value to the organization.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Given that,

Salaries = $100,000

FICA taxes withheld = $7,650

Income taxes withheld = $18,000

Federal unemployment taxes = $450

State unemployment taxes = $2,100

Therefore,

Payroll Tax Expense:

= FICA taxes withheld + Federal unemployment taxes + State unemployment taxes

= $7,650 + $450 + $2,100

= $10,200

The journal entry is as follows:

Payroll Tax Expense A/c                 Dr. $10,200

To FICA taxes withheld                                          $7,650

To Federal unemployment taxes                           $450

To State unemployment taxes                               $2,100

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Trend analysis.

Explanation:

The trend analysis is the method of analysis that consists in observing the behavior of the different items of the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement, to detect some significant changes that may have their origin in administrative errors.

This method allows us to know the direction and speed of the changes that have occurred in the financial situation of the company over time, so it is considered as a method of horizontal analysis.

It helps us to detect failures; but it is only an exploratory method, so it is always necessary to investigate further to find the causes of the failures. It is necessary to determine the changes suffered in the balances of the financial statement items that we are interested in analyzing. The trend analysis allows us to know the financial development of a company.

Cosi Company uses a job order costing system and allocates its overhead on the basis of direct labor costs. Cosi expects to incu
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

156.6%

Explanation:

Given:

Cosi Company's Incurred over head for the next period = $830,000

Expected labor hours = 53,000

Cost of labor = $10.00 per hour

Thus,

Total labor cost = 53,000 × $10.00 = $530,000

Now,

the Cosi Company's predetermined overhead rate will be calculated as:

Predetermined overhead rate =  Incurred overhead / Total labor cost

on substituting the respective values, we get

Predetermined overhead rate = ( $830,000 / 530,000 ) = 1.566

or

Predetermined overhead rate = 1.566 × 100% = 156.6%
