Answer:
see below
Explanation:
A positive correlation signifies that an increase in one variable results in the other variable moving in the same direction. Because supply and price are positively correlated, a price increase will increases supply. The opposite is also true.
Suppliers are business people whose main objective is to make profits. Higher prices give higher margins. Suppliers make higher profits when prices are high. The possibility of making higher profits motivates suppliers to increase supplies to the market. On the other hand, low prices may result in losses. When prices are low, supplies will shy away from the market to avoid making losses.

Answer; c. $14,000
Explanation
On December 1, rent had been paid for 3 months. At a rate of $7,000 a month this will come to;
= 7,000 * 3
= $21,000
The Prepaid rent account will reduce every month by the rent due for that month. The balance on the Prepaid account as at December 31 will therefore have reduced by one month from December 1.
= 21,000 - 7,000
= $14,000
Answer:
b. greater under absorption costing than variable costing.
Explanation:
The question is to calculate the closing value of inventory and based on the choices, we need to calculate based on both the Absorption Costing and the Variable Costing Methods.
1. Closing Inventory based on Variable Costing Method
Direct Material $40
Direct Labour $30
Variable Overhead $2
Fixed Overhead <u>$0 </u>(this method does not reecognise fixed cost
Totals (Unit cost of Production) $72
Based on this, the closing inventory is $72 x (8,000+50,000-55,000 units)
=$77 x 3,000= $216,000
2. Closing Inventory based on Absorption Costing Method
Direct Material $40
Direct Labour $30
Variable Overhead $2
Fixed Overhead <u>$5</u>
Totals (Unit cost of Production) $77
Based on this, the closing inventory is $77 x (8,000+50,000-55,000 units)
=$77 x 3,000= $231,000
Based on these calculations:
The Ending Inventory is higher/Greater under absorption costing than variable costing and the reason is that variable costing does not recognize fixed cost in determining the value of ending inventory.
