<span>This is a tricky question, because most of the answers provided are correct. For instance, by raising taxes, the government drops down the demand rates, as well as by decreasing the money supply (in that case, it also prevents economy from falling into an inflating situation). As for balancing the budget, this economical move entails decreasing the public expenditure and, therefore, contracting the demanding economical figures too. </span>

= $139,000

2. Period costs for 10,000 units:

= 10,000 * $6.15

= $61,500

3. Variable cost per unit of 8,000 produced and sold:

= $11.55

4. Variable cost per unit of 12,500 produced and sold:

= $11.55

5. Total variable costs for 8,000 units produced and sold:

= 8,000 * $11.55

= $92,400

6. Total variable costs for 12,500 units produced and sold:

= 12,500 * $11.55

= $144,375

7. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 8,000 units:

= $4.00

8. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 12,500 units:

= $4.00

9. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 x $4.00

= $32,000

10. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 12,500 units:

= 12,500 x $4.00

= $50,000

11. Total amount of manufacturing overhead costs for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 * $5.60

= $44,800

per unit = $5.60

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead =     $4.00

Total per unit =                                  $5.60

12. Total amount of manufacturing overhead for 12,500 units:

= 12,500 x $5.60

= $70,000

per unit = $5.60

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead =     $4.00

Total per unit =                                  $5.60

13. Contribution margin per unit:

Selling price =                                          $21.40

Variable manufacturing cost per unit =  $9.90

Contribution margin per unit                  $11.50

14. Total amounts of direct and indirect manufacturing costs for 12,000 units:

Direct manufacturing costs = $9.90 x 12,000 =   $118,800

Indirect manufacturing costs = $4.00 x 12,000 = $48,000

15. Incremental manufacturing cost if Martinez increases production from 10,000 to 10,001:

= $9.90

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Average Cost Per Unit

Direct materials                              $ 5.40

Direct labor                                     $ 2.90

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60

Total Variable Costs per unit        $ 9.90

Fixed manufacturing overhead    $ 4.00

Total product cost per unit          $13.90

Period Costs:

Fixed selling expense                   $ 2.40

Fixed administrative expense       $ 2.10

Sales commissions                         $ 1.10

Variable administrative expense $ 0.55

Total period costs  per unit           $6.15

All Variable costs:

Christina purchased 500 shares of stock at a price of $62.30 a share and sold the shares for $64.25 each. She also received $738
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

1.60 percent

Explanation:

exact real rate of return on this investment = interest rate - inflation rate

total revenue gotten by Christina = ( 500 × $ 64.25) + $ 738 = $ 32863

total money invested = 500 × $ 62.30 = $ 31150

her profit =  $ 32863 - $ 31150  = $ 1713

interest =  $ 1713 / $ 31150 = 0.054992 × 100 = 5.4992 %

exact interest rate = 5.4992 %  - 3.9% = 1.5992 approx 1.60 percent

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

This question requires us to calculate cash flows from operations and net income. Each of them is calculated as follow.

Cash flows from operations

Cash flow from operation comprises of cash generated or spend on core business related purchase and sale. It will be calculated as follow.

Cash from operations = 25,000 - 100,000 =($ 75,000).

Net income

Net income will be calculated using simple cashflow equation given below.

Closing cash balance = opening cashflow + net income + depreciation + cash flow from operations + cash flow investment + cash flow finance

25,000 = 55,000 + net income + 10,000 - 75,000 - 250,000 + 170,000

Net income = 115,000

"If I didn't have class tonight, I would save the $4 campus parking fee and spend four hours at work where I earn $10 per hour."
Allushta [10]

Answer:

total opportunity cost is $44

Explanation:

given data

parking fee = $4

earn = $10 per hour

time = 4 hour

to find out

opportunity cost

solution

we first find 4 hour earning that is

earning = earn × time

earning = 10 × 4

earning in 4 hours = $40

and

saving = $4

so total opportunity cost = saving + earning

total opportunity cost = $4 + $40

so total opportunity cost is $44
