Answer: False
Explanation:
Classification shifting is a method used whereby the core earnings are manipulated by misclassifying the items in the income statement.
One way that managers make use of classification shifting is by reporting the operating expenses for the business as nonoperating expenses. This is usually done in order to inflate the operating income.
The statement in the question is false as classification shifting by managers doesn't lead to under-reporting of total expenses and over-statement of bottom-line net income rather it lead to over reporting.
Answer:
D. Should Shut Down
Explanation:
A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .
If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.
However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.
Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.

Answer:
fixed costs = $255,000
variable costs = (15,000 / 17,000) x $216,750 = $191,250
Explanation:
A flexible budget is prepared in order to compare how budgeted revenues and costs actually worked out. In other words, if actual revenues and costs were similar to the budget previously prepared. A flexible budget adjusts actual results and helps management control how efficient the company was in following their budget. That is why a flexible budget is done after the budgeted period is over.
Fixed costs should not change (that is why they are fixed), but variable costs should change if the actual output was different than the budgeted output.
Answer: $40
Explanation:
Selling price can be calculated through the contribution margin equation;
Contribution margin = (Selling Price - Variable cost) / Selling Price
Contribution margin = Fixed costs/break-even point
= 660,000/1,100,000
= 60%
60% = (Selling Price - 16) / Selling Price
Selling price * 60% = Selling price - 16
16 = Selling price - (0.6 * selling price)
16 = Selling price * 40%
16/40% = Selling price
Selling price = $40
