Answer:

The formula is not used if consumer demand and ordering and holding costs are not constant.

Explanation:

E.O.Q formula measures the ideal quantity of order a company should purchase in order to minimize its inventory costs, such as holding costs and shortage costs. The formula, however has its limitations, in a way that it assumes that the costumer demand is constant and ordering and holding costs remain constant. This makes formula hard to use in case of seasonal changes of demand, inventory costs or lost sales revenue due to inventory shortages.

DENIUS [597]

The total product cost per unit under absorption costing is: $75.

In absorption costing, the cost of every unit produced is worked out by adding up the direct cost of materials, direct labor, variable overhead, and the fixed overhead. Unlike in the case of marginal costing where the fixed cost is treated as period cost, in absorption costing, fixed cost is treated as a product cost.

The cost per unit

Direct material                  28

Direct labor                       24

Variable overhead            10

Fixed cost                          13

Cost per unit                     75

Cost of Inventory

Number of units   = 1000

Cost per unit    = $75

Value = 1000 * $75 = $75,000

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

Shen is working in a country where the inflation rate is high.  

He gets a salary every two weeks.  

After receiving his salary he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he is going to need over the next two weeks.  

He converts the remaining salary in a more stable currency.  

He does this in order to prevent his salary from losing purchasing power.  

This effort that he is making to prevent his real income from losing value is called the shoe-leather cost of inflation.  

The shoe-leather cost can be defined as the cost of time and effort made to prevent the cash holdings from losing their value.

Answer:

Value of S=$25000.

Explanation:

Value of P= $75000

Value of n= 5 years

Allen Construction purchased a crane 6 years ago for $130,000. They need a crane of this capacity for the next 5 years. Normal o
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

<u>For retaining of Old Machine Equipment</u>

Price of old equipment 3 yrs ago = $130,000

O & M cost per year = $35,000

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   Old equipment

0                            $0            Initial Cash flow

1                         -$35,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

5                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

Hence, Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost

Annual worth = 0 - $35,000

Annual worth = -$35,000

<u>For buying of new equipment</u>

Cost of buying new crane = $150,000

Market value of old crane = $40,000

Time = 5 years

O & M cost per year = $8,000

Salvage value = $55,000

MARR = 20%

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   New equipment

0                         $110,000    -$150,000 + $40,000

1                         -$8,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

5                        $47,000     -$8,000 + $55,000

Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost + Salvage value

Annual worth = -$110,000(A/P 20%,5) - $8,000 + $55,000(A/P 20%,5)

Annual worth = -$110,000*(0.334) - $8,000 + $55,000*(0.134)

Annual worth = -$36,781.77 - $8,000 + $7,390.88

Annual worth = -$37,908.88

Conclusion: We should retain the old machine as it is more favorable than purchase of new equipment

Virty [35]

Answer:

1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,400 helmets?

3,400 helmets x 064 kgs per helmet = 2,176 kgs

2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,400 helmets?

2,176 kgs x $7 per kg = $15,232

3. What is the materials spending variance?

$15,484 - $15,232 = $252 unfavorable (because total expenditures on materials were higher than budgeted)

4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance?

materials price variance = [($15,484/2,346) - $7] x 2,346 = -$938 favorable (the purchase price per kg was lower than budgeted)

materials quantity variance = (2,346 - 2,176) x $7 = $1,190 unfavorable
