olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Cost of goods manufactured= $87100

Explanation

Total manufacturing cost is the aggregate amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the cost of goods sold shall consist of:

the cost of direct materials

the cost of direct labor

the cost of manufacturing overhead

Expenses that are outside of the manufacturing facilities, such as selling, general and administrative expenses, are not product costs. They are reported as expenses on the income statement in the accounting period in which they occur.

In this exercise:

<u>Cost of goods manufactured:</u>

Direct materials= $56,000

Direct Labor=$15,600

Factory overhead=Factory supervisor salary+ Depreciation expense+Indirect materials= 10,000 +3,700+1,800= $15,500

Total= $87100

Note: Salesperson commissions and  Depreciation expense Delivery equipment are not included in factory overhead

mel-nik [20]

Answer:Internal recruitment

Explanation:

Internal recruitment happens When the company as a vacancy and looks with in its existing employees to fill the the vacant position. Hiring within the company has many because the company is hiring some one who is already familiar with culture and ethos of the company, he or she is also familiar with the procedures and operations of the company that reduces induction time and possible training time.

The costs associated with internal recruitment are significantly lower than the costs of recruiting externally for example, recruiting externally the company has to do background checks on the new employees and sometimes pay the the recruiting agency for their services. It also takes a long time to find a suitable candidate when recruiting externally because the company receives many applications which may result in an increase in admin costs associated with recruiting externally.

One major draw back of this recruiting strategy is that it leaves gaps within company work structure or work force. When employees are frequently changing position within the organization it may cause disruption in the function of the company

Tracy consumes dress shoes​ (D) and casual Crocs​ (C). Her marginal utility from consuming casual Crocs is MU Subscript Upper CM
Llana [10]

Answer:

The optimal bundle is 6 pairs of dress shoes and 3 pairs of Crocs.

Explanation:

From the question,

Allowance (M) = $450; Price of dress shoes, Pd = $50; Price of crocs, Pc = $50

Note: MRS-price ratio, MUC- marginal utility from consuming casual Crocs ,MUD- marginal utility from consuming dress shoes

Optimal bundle is determined where MRS = Price ratio

MRS = MUC/MUD = 20DC/10C2 = 2D/C

Price ratio = Pd/Pc = 50/50 = 1

So, 2D/C = 1

       Therefore, C = 2D

Budget constraint:  M = Pd*D + Pc*C

So, 50D + 50*(2D) = 450

      50D + 100D = 150D = 450

So, D = 450/150 = 3

C = 2D = 2*3 = 6
