Answer:

b. price and quality.

Explanation:

Most attributes and benefits in many product categories can be whittled down to price and quality.

This ultimately implies that, the two fundamental factors to consider when designing a product is its price and quality. The price of a product can be defined as the monetary value or amount of money which must be paid by a customer for the acquisition of such products. The relationship between demand and supply of goods (products) affects or influences the price of a product; if the supply of a product is short, its price would rise and vice-versa.

The quality of a product is subjective, it is a measure of excellence and being free from any defect or deficiency when producing and supplying products that meet the needs or demands of customers.

A closed economy has income of $1,500 billion, government spending of $260 billion, taxes of $180 billion, and investment spendi
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

(i) $940 billion

(ii) $380 billion

(iii) -$80 billion

(iv) $300 billion

Explanation:

Income, Y = $1,500 billion

Government spending, G = $260 billion

Taxes, T = $180 billion,

Investment spending, I = $300 billion

As Y = C + G + I

Consumption spending, C = $1,500 - $260 - $300

                                            = $940 billion

Private savings = Y - T - C

                          = $1,500 - $180 - $940

                          = $380 billion

Public saving = T - G

                      = $180 - $260

                      = -$80 billion

National saving = private + public

                          = $380 - $80

                          = $300 billion

Nov. 27:

Dividend Payable                                                 $2,980

To record the declaration of a $0.10 per share cash dividend on 29,800 common stock shares outstanding

b. Retained Earnings Statement for the year ended December 31, 2016:

Ending balance                

c. Stockholders' Equity Section of the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2016:

Paid-in Capital:

Common Stock—$10 Par Value; 350,000 shares

authorized, 31,500 shares issued and outstanding :  $315,000

Treasury Stock, 1,700 shares                                           (17,000)

Paid-ln Capital in Excess of Par—Common                    281,100

Total Paid-in Capital                                                        579,100

Retained Earnings                                                          143,020

Total Stockholders' Equity                                          $722,120

Explanation:

a) Stock Dividend:  5% of stock outstanding was 1,500 (30,000 x 5%).  The effect of the stock dividend is to increase the Common Stock shares from 30,000 to 31,500 shares.  This is also reflected in the Common Stock account at the par value of $10, totalling $15,000 (1,500 x $10).  This is because the market value of $27 per share does not involve any cash flows for the entity, but an inflow for the stockholders who decide to sell their shares at that point.  The Retained Earnings is also reduced by $15,000, just as it is in the case of cash dividend.

b) Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par:

beginning balance     $310,000

Treasury stock             (28,900)

ending balance          $281,100

This account reflects the changes in Treasury stock above and below the par values.  It is also used to record the above and below the par values when shares are issued.

c) Treasury Stock:  This is a contra account to the Common Stock.  It records the repurchase of entity's own stock.  Two methods are allowed for accounting for treasury stock.  One is the par value method, where the differences in par value are recorded in the Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par.  The other method is the costing method, where the differences in par value are recorded in the Treasury stock account.

Jmes Graham Manufacturing is a small manufacturer that uses machine-hours as its
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Company - Job 62 - Job 63

Direct materials: $60,000 - $4,500 - $7,100

Direct labor: $25,000 - $2,500 - $4,200

overhead costs $72,000

Machine hours: 90,000 - 1,350 - 3,100

During 2019, the actual machine-hours totaled 95,000, and actual overhead costs were $71,000. Job 62 consisting of 1,000 units and Job 63 consisting of 2000 units were completed during the month.

A) To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 72,000/90,000

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate=  0.8 per machine-hour

B) Total manufacturing cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead

Job 62:

Total manufacturing cost= 4,500 + 2,500 + 0.8*1,350

Total manufacturing cost= $8,080

Job 63:

Total manufacturing cost= 7,100 + 4,200 + 0.8*3,100

Total manufacturing cost= $13,780

C) Unitary cost= total cost/ number of units

Job 62:

Unitary cost= 8,080/1,000= $8.08

Job 63:

Unitary cost= 13,780/2,000= $6.89

D) First, we need to apply overhead for the company as a whole:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 0.8*95,000

Allocated MOH= $76,000

Now, we can calculate the over/under applied overhead:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 71,000 - 76,000

Overapplied overhead= $5,000

E) Job 62= 14,000

Job 63= 18,000

Gross profit= sales - cost of goods sold

Job 62:

Gross profit= 14,000 - 8,080= $5,920

Job 63:

Gross profit= 18,000 - 13,780= $4,220
