Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Depreciation in 2017:

=\frac{Original\ cost-Salvage\ value}{Useful\ life}\times time\ period

=\frac{50,000-8,000}{6}\times\frac{3}{12}

      = $1,750

Accumulated Depreciation = $29,400 + Depreciation in 2017

                                             =  $29,400 +  $1,750

                                             =  $31,150

Book value on date of sale = Original cost - Accumulated Depreciation

                                             = 50,000 - 31,150  

                                              = 18,850

Loss on sale = Book value on date of sale - Sales price

                     = 18,850 - 18,000

                     = $850 (Loss)

Answer:The answer is $2,600 loss

Explanation:

Cost - Salvage value /useful life

Cost = $50,000

Salvage value =$8,000

Useful life = 6years

50,000- 8,000/6

=42,000/6

= 7,000

Yearly depreciation will be $7,000

Since the accumulated depreciation had a balance of $29,400 on December 31,2016

Net Book value = Original cost - Accumulated depreciation

= 50,000 - 29,400

= 20,600

The disposal of equipment Account will be in T account as follows

Disposal of Equipment Account

Dr: Equipment cost $50,000

Cr: Provision for depreciation $29,400

Cr: Sale Proceed $18,000

Cr: profit & loss $2,600

Balance Dr: $50,000 Balance Cr: $50,000

Since the debit side of the equipment account is greater than credit side of the equipment account The company made a loss on the sale of the equipment of $2,600

c) 2,480,000

Explanation:

a) current net income :                                               842,000

less 13,000 x 12 increce in variable manufacturing  (156,000)

less increase in fixed MO                                        <u>     (39,000)  </u>

                                                                                      647,000

b)

Sales        3,200,000    (16,000 x 200)

Variable   <u> (1,408,000)</u>  988,000x16,000/13,000 + 156,000

Contribution  1,792,000

Fixed MO (819,000)  

Fixed S&A<u> (315,000)   </u>

Net Income 658,000

c)

\frac{Fixed\:Cost + Target \: Profit}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

\frac{Contribution \: Margin}{Sales \: Revenue} = Contribution \: Margin \: Ratio

1,792,000 / 3,200,000 = 0.56

\frac{1,134,000 + 254,800}{0.56} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

shepuryov [24]

The period which <em>Keynes argued</em> that the government should not balance its budget but instead have budget DEFICITS was during:

  • <u>D. Economic recessions.</u>

According to the given question, we are asked to show the period which <em>Keynes argued</em> that the government should not balance its budget but instead have budget DEFICITS.

As a result, we can see that Keynes, one of the fathers of economics stated that it was <em>important</em> for the government to have budget deficits so that they could adequately navigate through the economic recessions at that periiod.

Therefore, the correct answer is option D

82) At the current price of $2, how much does the firm want to produce?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

84) The equilibrium is the only price where quantity demanded is equal to quantity supplied. At a price above equilibrium, like 1.8 dollars, quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded, so there is excess supply.

85) The equilibrium price and quantity are where the two curves intersect. The equilibrium point shows the price point where the quantity that the producers are willing to supply equals the quantity that the consumers are willing to purchase. This is the ideal quantity to supply

86) The existence of economic profits attracts entry, economic losses lead to exit, and in long-run equilibrium, firms in a perfectly competitive industry will earn zero economic profit.

87) The industry is in long-run equilibrium when a price is reached at which all firms are in equilibrium (producing at the minimum point of their LAC curve and making just normal profits). Under these conditions there is no further entry or exit of firms in the industry, given the technology and factor prices.

Burns Industries currently manufactures and sells 18,000 power saws per month, although it has the capacity to produce 33,000 un
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Burns Industries

Using an incremental analysis approach, Burns should consider accepting this special order only if the price per unit offered by Allen is at least:

above $38 (the variable cost per unit).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Monthly production and sales units = 18,000

Production capacity per month = 33,000 units

Costs at the 18,000-unit-per-month level of production:

Variable costs = $38

Fixed costs =        23

Total per unit =  $61

Selling price per unit = $78

Special offer for 4,800 saws per month, without changing the fixed manufacturing costs.

b) Incremental analysis approach is a management decision technique that specifies that only relevant, marginal, or differential costs should be taken into account.  It rules out the inclusion of sunk or fixed costs, which do not change between alternatives.
