Answer:

The long-run average total cost will be $11.

Explanation:

A monopolistic firm earns a normal profit in the long run. Equilibrium is achieved at the point where the marginal revenue curve is intersected by the marginal cost curve. The equilibrium output level is determined by this intersection.

The price is fixed higher than the marginal cost, the price is equal to the average total cost. This is because if the price is higher the existing firms will be having profits. This will attract potential firms in the market. The entry of new firms will lead to an increase in supply. As a result, the price will decline. This process will continue until the price level becomes equal to the average total cost and all profits are exhausted.

So, here if the price of the product is $11 and the firm is enjoying normal profits, the average total cost will also be $11.

Zanzabum

Answer:

Complete question is:

XYZ Company recorded the following information related to their inventory

accounts for 2020:

                         January 1, 2020        December 31, 2020

Direct materials               37,000                   50,000

Work in process                38,000                   41,000

Finished goods                 22,000                   34,000

The following information was taken from XYZ Company's accounting records

for 2020:

Sales revenue ...........................................   $630,000

Direct materials purchased ..............................       ?

Depreciation, factory equipment .........................     34,000

Prime costs .............................................    250,000

Utilities (60% for factory; 40% for office building) ....     20,000

Sales commissions .......................................       ?

Indirect materials ......................................     25,000

Depreciation, office equipment ..........................     30,000

Rent, factory building ..................................     56,000

Net income ..............................................     10,000

Direct labor ............................................       ?

Advertising .............................................     75,000

Production supervisor's salary ..........................     81,000

Additional information:

1.  Direct labor comprised 35% of the conversion costs for 2020.

2.  The actual overhead cost for 2020 was equal to the overhead applied

   to production. Thus there was no overhead variance for 2020.

A) Calculate XYZ Company's direct labor cost for 2020.

B) Calculate the direct materials purchased by XYZ Company in 2020.

C) Calculate XYZ Company's sales commissions for 2020.

Answer is:

a) Total overhead = 34000+12000+25000+56000+81000 = 208000

Direct labor = 208000*35/65 = 112000

b) Direct material used = 250000-112000 = 138000

Direct material purchase = 138000+50000-37000 = 151000

c) Sales and administrative expense other than sales commission = 113000

Sales commission = 630000-443000-113000-10000 = 64000

Explanation:

Jonas's Stock basis $33,200

Less $8,300

Capital gain $24,900

$24,900 cash distribution - Net share of Ard's taxable income $16,600= $8,300

Therefore Jonas's recognized capital gain

of $24,900

vodomira [7]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

PERT and CPM are network planning techniques.

PERT means Program Evaluation and Review Technique.

CPM means Critical Path Method.

The six steps more common to PERT and CPM are:

-Define the project and identify each activity.

-Develop relationships among the activities.

-Draw the network connecting all of the activities.

-Adding time and/or cost estimates to each activity.

-Compute the longest time path through the network. This is called the critical path.

-Use the network to help plan, schedule, monitor and control the project.

Lansing, Inc. provides the following information for one of its department's operations for June (no new material is added in De
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

Given

Beginning inventory units = 15,000 units

Beginning Inventory Completed = 60% completed

Current work = 35,000 units started

Ending inventory = 5,000 units

Ending inventory completed = 20% completed

Using FIFO, the production cost report is as follows

First, we determine the physical flow of units;.

This is listed out as follows;

Beginning WIP Inventory: 15,000 units

Unit started this period: 35,000 units

Total units to account for = 50,000 units

Units completed and transferred out: 45,000 units

Ending WIP Inventory: 5,000 units

Total accounted units: 50,000 units

Unit completed and transferred out is calculated by;

Total units to account for - Ending WIP Inventory

= 50,000 units - 5,000 units

= 45,000 units

Calculating the EUP (Equivalent Unit of Production)

Equivalent Unit to complete beginning WIP Inventory

Direct Materials: 15,000 (100% - 100%) = 0 EUP (Direct)

Conversions: 15,000 (100% - 60%) = 6,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Direct)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit in ending WIP Inventory:

Direct: 5,000 units * 100% = 5,000 EUP (Direct)

Conversion: 5,000 * 20% = 1,000 EUP (Conversion)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 0 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 5,000 EUP = 35,000 EUP (Direct)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 6,000 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 1,000 EUP = 37,000 EUP (Conversion)

Note that;

Equivalent Unit started and completed is calculated as follows;

Total Units account for (45,000) - Beginning Unit (15,000) = 30,000 EUP
