Answer:
The correct option is A:
cost of goods sold 10,750
merchandise inventory 10,750
Explanation:
When goods are bought for resale,the total cost of the goods bought is usually the invoice price paid as well as the cost of bringing in the goods i.e freight,hence the cost of the goods sold here is the invoice price of $10,000 plus the freight of $750,giving total cost of $10,750
When the goods are sold,merchandise inventory would be credited with $10,750 while cost of goods sold is debited with same amount.
The correct option is first one with cost of goods sold debited with $10.750 and merchandise inventory credited for $10,750
Answer:
The criticism is true to a certain degree, and unjustified to another degree.
Explanation:
It is true in the sense that the U.S. has indeed lost a lot of manufacturing to Mexico, simply because Mexico has far lower labor costs, and U.S. manufacturers have decided to take advantage of that by taking their plants to Mexican states.
It is also true that Mexico has been running a trade surplus with the United States in recent years, mainly because of the large manufacturing sector that Mexico has been developing.
On the other hand, the criticism is unjustified because neither a trade deficit nor the moving of manufacturing to Mexico mean that the United States as a whole is in worst condition than before NAFTA. In fact, most economists agree that free trade is a good thing for the economy as a whole, and that most people benefit from the lower costs and specialization that trade brings about.
The problem lies then, in the people who lose their jobs: formerly unionized manufacturing workers from the Rust Belt, for example. These people need to be helped with government assitance, both in terms of welfare, and training, so that they can find new jobs and make ends meet in the meanwhile.
Answer:
Instructions are listed below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
For the purchase option:
Buying price= $22 per unit.
For the make option:
Weekly rental payment of $30,800
The firm also has to hire five operators to help make product A. Each operator works eight hours per day, five days per week at the rate of $14 per hour.
The material cost for the make option is $15 per unit of product A.
A) We need to find the number of units that makes the unitary fixed costs= $7
Weekly rental= 30800
Direct labor= ($14*8 hours*5workes)*5 days= 2800
Total fixed costs= $33,600
Unitary fixed costs= total fixed costs/ Q
7=33600/Q
Q= 4800 units
B) Now Q= 6600
Buy= 6600*22= $145,200
Make= 6600*15 + 33600= $132,600
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
The difference between absorption costing net operating income and variable costing net operating income lies in the <em>fixed costs deferred in closing inventory</em>.
If Production is greater than Sales - <u>Increase in Finished Goods Inventory</u>, Absorption costing net operating income will typically be greater than Variable costing net operating income.
However, If Production is less than Sales - <u>Decrease in Finished Goods Inventory</u>, Absorption costing net operating income will typically be less than Variable costing net operating income.
