Answer:
a. $6,763.40
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price is shown below:
But before that the predetermined overhead rate is
For machining
= ($102000 ÷ 17,000) + $1.70
= $7.7 per machine hour
For fabrication
= ($61200 ÷ 6000) + $4.10
= $14.30 per labour hour
Now the selling price is
Direct material ($720 + $380) $1,100
Direct labor ($900 + $1,500) $2,400
Machining department overhead (7.7 × 80) $616
Fabrication department overhead (50 × 14.3) $715
Total manufacturing cost $4,831
Markup 40% $1,932.40
Selling price $6,763.40
Answer:
His American Opportunity tax credit is $2,500.
Explanation:
A taxpayer who has a modified adjusted gross income of $80,000 or less can claim the credit for the qualified expenses of an eligible student.
Taxpayers will receive a tax credit based on 100% of the first $2,000, plus 25% of the next $2,000 that is paid during the taxable year for tuition, fees and course materials and also, 40% of the credit (up to $1,000) is refundable.
Therefore, His American Opportunity tax credit is $2,500.
Options:
<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>
<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>
<em>c. Stay the same</em>
<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.
Answer:
0.25
Explanation:
The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) can be described as the rate of a reduction is one factor to maintain the same production level when another factor is increased.
Given that labor is measured on the horizontal axis, the MRST of K for L can be calculated as follows:
Where;
MPK = Marginal product of capital = 2
MPL = Marginal product of labor = 8
Substituting the values into the equation, we have:
This implies that 0.25 of capital must be given up to have one unit of labor.
Answer:
Offshoring
Explanation:
offshoring is the process of moving an aspect of a business process overseas with the intention of reducing cost.
A firm can move its manufacturing process from its own parent country to another country (usually where the labour rate and cost of raw materials is cheap compared to what it obtainable in its home country) in other to reduce its cost of production thereby increasing its added value.
From the above explanation, we can conclude that Prextos is planning to employ Offshoring to cut down losses.
