Answer:

Profit (loss) 4611

Explanation:

Variable manufacturing cost per unit = Total variable manufacturing cost / Total number of units = 99750 / 15000 = 6.65.

Calculation of special order :

Sales (5300 * 7.80) = 41.340  

(-) Variable manufacturing costs ( 5.300 * 6.65 ) = 35.245  

(-) Export fees ( 5300 * 0.28) = 1.484  

Profit (loss) 4.611

Answer:

The question is incomplete, the completed version is as follows:

Lattimer Company had the following results of operations for the past year:

Sales (15,000 units at $12.15)    $ 182,250  

Variable manufacturing costs                         ($ 99,750)    

Fixed manufacturing costs                           ($     23,250)    

Selling and administrative expenses (all fixed)    ($     38,250)                                                                                                          ($161, 250)

Operating income                             $ 21,000  

A foreign company whose sales will not affect Lattimer's market offers to buy 5,300 units at $7.80 per unit. In addition to existing costs, selling these units would add a $0.28 selling cost for export fees. Lattimer’s annual production capacity is 25,000 units. If Lattimer accepts this additional business, the special order will yield a:

Multiple Choice

A. $4,611 profit.

B $6,095 profit.

C $8,904 loss.

D $2,120 loss.

E $3,604 loss.

The answer is: A

Explanation:

A special order decision relies upon the contribution to company profitability if the order is taken, available production capacity as well as any existing orders which are still pending. Special orders entail special processing requirements or differences in pricing. In order to gauge the profitability of accepting a special order, incremental costs must be compared with incremental revenue. Thereafter, production capacity must be evaluated together with possible alternatives for any excess capacity.

Lattimer has a $12.15 selling price for its products but the new order dictates $7.80 selling price. This is indicative of a special order. There is an additional $0.28 for exporting the product to the foreign company. Excluding variable costs, the remaining costs remain fixed, that is, these costs do not change with production volume.

Given total variable costs of $99, 750 for 15, 000 units, variable cost per unit is $6.65. If Lattimer takes the order, they would yield a contribution to fixed costs of:

$7.80 - ( $6.65 + $0.28) = $ 0.87 per unit

5, 300 units * $0.87 = $ 4, 611

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The budgeted cash disbursements for August are $532,000

Explanation:

Amount of cash the company pays for purchases in August:

30% x Materials purchases in July + 70% x Materials purchases in August = 30% x $250,000 + 70% x $420,000 = $369,000

The budgeted cash disbursements for August = Cash paid for purchasing materials + Wages Expense + Purchase of office equipment + Selling and Administrative Expenses = $369,000 + $60,000 + $64,000 + $39,000 = $532,000

Noted: Depreciation is a non-cash accounting expense, so it doesn't involve cash flow

A ____________ approach to solving the recession in this example would have no uncertainty regarding the attainment of the short
Ksju [112]

Answer:

monetarist approach                            

Explanation:

Monetarism relates to the school of thought that prioritizes the function of government agencies in regulating the number of resources in circulation in monetary economics. Monetarist theory argues that differences in the currency supply have significant short-term and longer-term impacts on federal output and price rates.

If a country's money supply decreases, business activity will rise, as per monetarist theory; the opposite is also correct. The monetarist philosophy is driven by a standard equation, MV= PQ, in which M will be the money supply, V is just the pace and P refers to the price of commodities, and Q is the sum of commodities.

leva [86]

Answer:

1. $3,380

2. $2,175

Explanation:

Part 1

Predetermined overhead rate = Total Overheads for the Company ÷ Total  Direct labor-hours for the Company

                                                  =  $ 15,080,000 ÷ 232,000

                                                  = $65

Overheads applied to Job Bravo = ( 30 x $65) + (22 x $65) =  $3,380

Part 2

<em>Assembly department</em>

Predetermined overhead rate =  $ 7,250,000 ÷ 145,000

                                                  = $50

<em>Assembly department</em>

Predetermined overhead rate =  $ 7,830,000 ÷ 290,000

                                                  = $27

Overheads applied to Job Bravo = (30 x $50) + (25 x $27) = $2,175
