Answer:

a) Contribution from the special order= $52,640.  

b) Stuart should accept the order

Explanation:

The amount of contribution to profit from the special order is the difference between the revenue  and the relevant cost of variable cost of the special order.

The relevant cost of the special order is equal the sum of all variable cost only.

Note that the allocated facility overhead is irrelevant to whether to accept or reject the order. This is so because the costs would still be incurred either way.

Relevant variable costs of special order = (880 + 510) × 47 = $65,330

Sales revenue = 2,510 × 47 =  $117,970.00

Contribution from the special order =$117,970.00 -  $65,330

                                                            = $52,640.00

B) Stuart should accept the special order because it would increase its profit by $52,640.

Answer:

d.   Account receivable days = 72 days

Explanation:

The average receivable days. This is the average length of time it takes a business to collect the amount due from its customers in respect of  credit sales.

When a business sells on credit , customers are expected to settle their account within a given credit period. Account receivable days is computed to evaluate how well a business is managing its investment in the account  receivables.

The shorter the better, as it means that custmers are paying on time, thereby preserving cash position for the business and reducing the risk bad debt.

A prolonged account receivable days means a poor credit control system  which comes with the attendants risk bad debt and additional financing costs for the business.

To compute the account receivable days (debtors collection period), use this formula:

Account receivable days= (Average account receivable/Credit sales) × 360 days.

So we apply this to the question:

Account receivable days= ( 1,200,000/6,000,000) × 360 days

                               = 72 days

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

C.Accounting Identity​ is: Assets equivalentLiabilities​ + Owners' Equity.

Explanation:

In accounting identity all variables must balance, if they do not balance according to the equation then there must be an error in formulation, measurement or calculation.

The basic assumption in accounting identity is that the balance sheet must balance. That is assets must be equal to a sum of liabilities and owner's equity.

Asset= Liabilities+ Owners Equity.

This relationship is based on the convention of double entry, for every debit there is an equal credit.

LekaFEV [45]

It is true that right-to-work laws stipulate that a person cannot be denied employment because of membership or non-membership in a labor union or other labor organization.

The concept of the right to work is that people have a human right to work or engage in productive employment and should not be denied that right. The right to work is recognized in international human rights law through its inclusion in the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights, where the right to work emphasizes economic, social, and cultural development.

The right to work was also enshrined as a fundamental right of citizens in the Soviet Union's constitution. The Human Rights Measurement Initiative assesses countries' right to work based on their level of income.
