Answer:

Part 1. Prepare the Cutting department's process cost summary for October using the weighted-average method.

Debits: (Inputs)

                                                           $

Opening Work In Progress         87,300

Raw Materials                              121,600

Conversion Costs                      866,800        

Total                                          1,075,700

Credits : (Outputs)      

                                                           $

Closing Work In Progress            111,800

Completed and Transferred      963,900

Total                                           1,075,700

Part 2. Prepare the journal entry dated October 31 to transfer the cost of the partially completed units to Assembly

Assembly Department (debit) $ 963,900

Cutting Department (credit) $ 963,900

Explanation:

Step 1 Find the Total Cost In Assembly Department for Each Input Component

Raw Materials = 18000+121600=$139600

Conversion Costs = 69300+866800=$936100

Step 2 Find Total Equivalent Units for Each Input Component

Raw Materials = 21500 (closing work in progress- 100% ) + 153000( transferred- 100%) = 174500

Conversion = 17200 (closing work in progress - 80%) + 153000 (transferred - 100%) = 170200

Step 3 Calculate Cost per Equivalent Unit for Each Input Component

Raw Materials =  $139600/174500 = $0.80

Conversion Cost = $936100/170200 = $5.50

Total Equivalent Cost= $6.30

Step 4 Calculate Cost of Output Components

(1) Completed and Transferred = $6.30×153000

                                                  = $963,900

<em>(2) Closing Work In Progress:</em>

Raw Materials = $0.80×21500       = 17,200

Conversion Cost = $5.50×17500   =94,600

Total                                                 =111,800

Which sentences in this paragraph describe two government policies that liberalize the economy?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

(A) "So, the government decides to reduce the tariffs on imported raw materials."

(B) "It also introduces special economic zones where certain goods can be traded tax-free."

Explanation:

Liberal economic policies usually revolve around deregulation of many governmental policies, since advocates tend to prefer a market that is as free as possible – meaning, it is free of governmental influences. Liberal economy is also a form of capitalism, and thus they would support (A) and (B) most, since it reduces barriers for businesses to operate at a profit.  

They would not support (C) and (D) since these two concepts are instead socialist economic policies.
