Answer:

Innova

a) Make or Buy IMC2 Incremental Analysis:

Make IMCs (per unit)

Direct material         $61.48

Direct labor                37.19

Material handling        7.16

Variable overhead    71.60

Total unit cost          177.43

Buy IMC2 (per unit)

Purchase price          $230

Net Income will decrease by ($52.57) if IMC2 is bought.

b) Innova should not purchase the component.  It costs more to buy IMC2 than to make it based on incremental analysis.

Explanation:

a) Incremental Analysis is a decision-making technique used in business to determine the true cost difference between alternatives.  It is also called the relevant cost approach, marginal analysis, or differential analysis.  Using incremental analysis, sunk cost or past cost is disregarded as irrelevant.  The fixed cost element equalling $47.74 per unit is a sunk cost that is not relevant for incremental analysis.

b) In a make or buy decision, the company considers if internalization of production will be of greater economic benefits than outsourcing.

c) Variable overhead is calculated as ($126.50 - $7.16) x 60% = $71.60

On August 1 of Year 1 Accounting Associates (AA) collected $1,200 cash for consulting services to be provided for one year begin
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

c) Unearned Revenue $ 500, Revenue $ 500

Explanation:

When the cash was received on August 01, no accounting services were provided so the  entry would have been:

Cash Debit                                 $ 1,200

Unearned revenue Credit                          $  1,200

Unearned Revenue is a liability account

On December 31, a recognition needs to be made for the services revenue earned and hence the amount for 5 months amounting is debited to  unearned revenue and revenue credited with $ 500.

5. Calculating tax incidence Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola consumers a tax. Before the tax, 40 billion
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The amount of tax on a case of Cola is ;

= Selling price - Producer gain

= 6 - 2

= $4

The burden that falls on consumers is;

= Current selling price - Previous selling price

= 6 - 5

= $1

The burden that falls on the producers is;

= Selling price less consumer tax - Producer gain

= 5 - 2

= $3

The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on producers. <u>FALSE. </u>

Whether the tax is on the producer or on the consumer makes no difference because the quantity sold will be the same. The statement is therefore false.
