Suppose that without specialization, Iran produces 4 barrels of oil and 6 bottles of olive oil, and Iraq produces 4 barrels of o
Elza [17]

Answer:

With specialization Iran will be able to consume 1.7 bottles of olive oil.

Explanation:

Iran produces 4 barrels of oil and 6 bottles of olive oil.

Iraq produces 4 barrels of oil and 4 bottles of olive oil.

The opportunity cost of producing a barrel of oil for Iran

= \frac{6}{4}

= 1.5

The opportunity cost of producing a barrel of oil for Iraq

= \frac{4}{4}

= 1

Iraq has a lower opportunity cost for producing oil so we can say it has a comparative advantage in producing oil.

The opportunity cost of producing a barrel of olive oil for Iran

= \frac{4}{6}

= 0.66

The opportunity cost of producing a barrel of olive oil for Iraq

= \frac{4}{4}

= 1

Iran has a lower opportunity cost for producing olive oil so we can say it has a comparative advantage in producing it.

The terms of trade with specialization are 4 barrels of oil for 4.3 bottles of olive oil, and that 4 barrels of oil are indeed traded for 4.3 bottles of olive oil.

Without trade, Iran is consuming 4 barrels of oil and 6 bottles of olive oil.

With specialization, Iran will be able to consume

= 6 - 4.3

= 1.7 bottles of olive oil

Hache Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing departmen
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production

<u>Materials </u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 50%)                  =    925

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials             = 6,725

<u>Conversion</u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%)    = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 20%)                     =    370

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Costs =  6,170

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent units of Production

Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

                                        = ($ 8,700 + $ 91,000) ÷ 6,725

                                        = $14.825

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

                                        = ($ 8,500 + $ 126,300) ÷ 6,170

                                        = $21.848

Calculation of cost of ending work in process inventory

Materials ( 925 ×  $14.825)             =  $13,713.12

Conversion Cost ( 370 × $21.848)  =  $8,083.76

Total                                                 =  $21,796.88

Thus,

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797.
