Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: Verifiability.

Explanation:

To begin with, the accounting concept of <em>"Verifiability"</em> indicates that the accounts of a company are verifiable in the cases when those accounts are reproducible so that indicates that given the same data and assumpitions it is understandable that an independent accountant can produce the same result the company actually did. Therefore that the verifiability is the concept that states that an accounting transaction should be supported by sufficient evidence to allow two or more qualified accountants to arrive at similar measures as it said before.

5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses
gogolik [260]

Question Completion:

Due to erratic sales of its sole product - a high capacity battery for laptop computers - PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulties for some time.  The contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given as follows:

Sales (19,500 units at $30 per unit) $585,000

Variable expenses                              409,500

Contribution margin                             175,500

Fixed expenses                                    180,000

Net operating margin                           ($4,500)

Answer:

PEM, Inc.

a1) New CM ratio = 40%

a2) Break-even point in unit sales and dollars sales

i) Break-even point in unit sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution per unit

= $237,000/$12

= 19,750 units

ii) Break-even point in dollars sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution margin ratio

= $237,000/0.4

= $592,500

b. Contribution format income statements, based on sales of 20,800 units:

                                                             Without                With

                                                         Automation         Automation

Sales (20,800 units at $30 per unit) $624,000    $624,000 (20,800 * $30)

Variable expenses (20,800 at $21)     436,800       374,400 (20,800 * $18)

Contribution margin (20,800 * $9)      187,200       249,600 (20,800 * $12)

Fixed expenses                                    180,000       237,000

Net operating margin                            $7,200       $12,600

c) I would recommend that the company should automate its operations.  It will generate more net operating margin, equal to $5,400 ($12,600 - $7,200), when it automates than when it does not, assuming that it expects to sell 20,800 units.  

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable expenses reduction = $3 per unit

Old variable expenses per unit = $21 ($409,500/19,500)

New variable expenses per unit = $18 ($21 - $3)

New variable expenses = $351,000 ($18 * 19,500)

New Contribution Margin per unit = $12 ($30 - $18)

New Contribution margin ratio = $12/$30 * 100 = 0.4 or 40%

Old Fixed Expenses = $180,000

New Fixed Expenses = $237,000 ($180,000 + $57,000)

On July 1, Crowe Co. pays $15,000 to Zubin Insurance Co. for a 3-year insurance policy. Both companies have fiscal years ending
Neko [114]

Answer:

a.

July 1, Year 1

Prepaid Insurance                  $15000 Dr

     Cash                                       $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Insurance expense                    $2500 Dr

    Prepaid Insurance                     $2500 Cr

b.

July 1, Year 1

Cash                                                  $15000 Dr

    Unearned Service revenue             $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Unearned service revenue        $2500 Dr

    Service revenue                           $2500 Cr

Explanation:

a.

The company will record the cash going out of the business for prepaid insurance as credit and the asset account prepaid insurance as debit to record the prepayment of insurance for 3 years at the amount of $15000.

The insurance paid out is for 3 years. So, the per year insurance expense is,

Insurance expense per year = $15000 / 3 = $5000

The adjusting entry made on 31 december will record the insurance months consumed (6 months) as an expense and debit the insurance expense and credit the prepaid insurance asset account.

The insurance expense for 6 months = 5000 * 6/12 = $2500

b.

For the receiving company, the cash is being received and as the service will be provided later on, the cash received will be debited and the unearned service revenue will be credited.

As six months worth of cover has passed, on 31 December, the company will record service revenue for 6 months that is $2500 and debit the liability recorded under unearned service revenue.

Elastic demand exists when:
arlik [135]

Answer:

B. a small percentage decrease in price produces a larger percentage increase in quantity demanded and total revenue increases. 

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

Demand is elastic if a small percentage decrease in price produces a larger percentage increase in quantity demanded . Total revenue would increase because the percentage increase in Quanitity demanded exceeds the percentage decrease in price.

If demand is elastic, a small percentage increase in price produces a larger percentage decrease in quantity demanded and total revenue increases.

Here, total revenue falls because percentage decrease in price exceeds the percentage increase in price. 

Demand is inelastic if a small percentage decrease in price produces a smaller percentage increasein quantity demanded.

Demand is perfectly inelastic if the quantity demanded remains the same regardless of level of price.
