Answer: $1,376,000.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to assist us in solving this question effectively;

(1). The current approach and automated approach for Contribution Margin Ratio is 25 % and 50 % respectively.

(2). The current approach and automated approach for Break-even point in Sales Dollar is $ 1,248,000 and $ 1,312,000 respectively.

(3). The current approach and automated approach for Degree of Operating Leverage is 4.18 and 5 respectively.

(4). The current and automated approach for Decline in net income for a 10 % decline in sales is 41.8 % and 50 %.

(5). The current and automated approach for level of Sales where net income will be same under both options is $ 1,376,000 and $ 1,376,000 Respectively.

(6). The current approach and automated approach for Margin of Safety Ratio is 24% and 20% respectively.

Note that;

(1). BP = TFC / CMR

Where BP= Break-even point in sales dollar, TFC = Total Fixed Cost and CMR= Contribution Margin Ratio.

(2). MSR = ( ASD - BSD) / ASD × 100.

Where MSR= Margin of Safety Ratio,ASD=Actual Sales dollars, BSD= Break-even Sales dollars , and ASD = Actual Sales dollars.

(3). CMR = CM ÷ Sales × 100.

CMR = Contribution margin ratio, CM =Contribution Margin.

(4). DOL = CM ÷ NI.

Where DOL = Degree of Operating Leverage, CM = Contribution Margin and NI = Net Income.

Decline in net income for a 10 % decline in sales = OL x 10.

Where OL => Operating Leverage.

We then say that V = level of sales.

=> V x 25 % - 312,000 = V x 50 % - 656,000.

=> 0.25 V = 344,000.

V = $ 1,376,000.

Explain how a firm's production function is related to its marginal product of labor, how a firm's marginal product of labor is
Ghella [55]

The price paid to each factor adjusts to balance the supply and demand for that factor. Because factor demand reflects the value of the marginal product of that factor, in equilibrium, each factor is compensated according to its marginal contribution to the production of goods and services.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The incremental profit that is being earned for an additional single unit by subtracting the price of the product and all the variable cost that is associated with that product is the marginal contribution. It is the earnings that is obtained in total for paying all fixed expense and also for the profit generation.

The price that is spent for the every factor in order to adjust balancing the supply and demand of that particular factor. This is because of the reason that, the value of the marginal product of any factor is controlled by the demand factor. Thus in an equilibrium state there will be a compensation of each factor based on the marginal contribution to the production of goods and services.

choli [55]

Answer:

The amount of inventory that would be reported on the absorption costing balance sheet is $70,905

Explanation:

In order to Calculate the amount of inventory under absorption Costing  to be reported on the balance sheet, we would have to use the following formula:

amount of inventory under absorption Costing = (Direct materials+Direct labor+Variable factory overhead+ Fixed factory overhead)/ (Production costs units)×units remain unsold

amount of inventory under absorption Costing =($761,300/20,400)×1,900

amount of inventory under absorption Costing = $70,905

The amount of inventory that would be reported on the absorption costing balance sheet is $70,905
