Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct-material cost per unit $ 35 $ 60

Direct-labor cost per unit $20 $20

Type A Type B Total

Setups 50 30 80

Machine hours 16,000 22,500 38,500

Outgoing shipments 100 75 175

The firm’s total overhead of $3,080,000 is subdivided as follows: manufacturing setups, $672,000; machine processing, $1,848,000; and product shipping, $560,000.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Set up= 672,000/80= $8400 per setup

Machine processing= 1,848,000/38,500= $48 per machine hour

Shipping= 560,000/175= $3200 per shipping

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Type A:

Set up= 8400*50= $420,000

Machine processing= 48*16,000= $768,000

Shipping= 3,200*100= 320,000

Total= 1,508,000

Unit cost Type A= 35 + 20 + (1,508,000/8,000units)= $243.5

Type B:

Set up= 8400*30= $252,000

Machine processing= 48*22,500= $1,080,000

Shipping= 3,200*75= 240,000

Total= 1,572,000

Unit cost Type B= 60 + 20 + (1,572,000/15,000)= $184.8

2) applied overhead= $80*16,000= 1,280,000

$300,000 understated

The ninth worker adds 25 units to total production. The tenth worker adds 22 units to total production. The company has:________

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Diminishing returns

Explanation:

A firm producing widgets (term for a generic good) has two factors of production. The factory and labour. The capacity of the factory is fixed, and the marginal cost (MC) of labour is the same (i.e. each new worker will cost the same).

There are two stages to how MC is affected.

1. Increasing returns (MC goes down)

As output begins to increase, the large manufacturing processes/equipment still not fully utilised means and the additional labour can be productive as they can always use the equipment to its full potential due to which the MC is relatively low.

2. Constant returns (MC goes sideward)

At this point, labour is producing its optimal output per unit. The marginal cost is therefore at its lowest.

3. Diminishing returns (MC goes up)

The more labour that is employed, the less marginal output it is able to produce. This could be a result of too many people to efficiently operate/ rotate use of machinery. The cost increases more and more to generate an extra unit of output, because of labour exhibiting diminishing returns in the short run.

In this question, the 10th worker has added 22 units which is 3 units less than the number of units added by the 9th worker, thus the company is producing less marginal output for each worker. so based on the above discussion it can be concluded that the company has Diminishing returns.

Even though bananas are not grown in the United States, a tariff is applied to

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

C. To obtain revenue for the U.S. government

Explanation:

A tax applied to imports is a source of revenue for the importing government. When purchases are from outside the country, the importers pay the government some money as import tariffs. This amount of money is revenue to the government.

Import tariffs usually protect local production from unfair competition by cheap imports. In this case, the US does not grow bananas. The tax on bananas must be a source of revenue.
