Answer:

The correct answer is total revenue; total cost.

Explanation:

Cost reduction is one of the most addressed issues in companies. They do it all the time since it is a permanent process. This is because it always seeks to improve the profitability of the company and, consequently, productivity. In other words, try to "do more with less", which is to produce more with what you have or produce the same with lower expenses. In both cases the objective is to reduce costs.

A company can reduce costs for many reasons: for a drop in sales, for lack of liquidity, for not having access to credit, etc. And when this happens, the cost cut occurs in the areas of human resources with the dismissal of personnel, the restructuring of the purchase processes, changes of suppliers, among other measures.

It is important to know what the current production process is and, if possible, redesign it, seeking to eliminate unnecessary steps, that is, to shorten the production processes. A long production line implies a greater number of workers, more work in the process and more time in product development. It also increases the possibility of errors in the process.

To make the cost reduction in your company even more efficient, you need to know each process deeply to detect unnecessary steps and help you reduce processes and / or procedures that in the medium or long term translate into cost reduction.

Signal mistakenly produced 1,075 defective cell phones. The phones cost $70 each to produce. A salvage company will buy the defe
kow [346]

Answer: Rework the phones

Explanation:

The phones have already been produced so the cost price of $70 does not matter as it is a sunk cost.

The decision the company makes between scrap and reworking will depend on which option bring in more money.

Scrap = $39

Reworking:

= Price after reworking - Cost to rework

= 146 - 82

= $64

Incremental income of reworking over scrap:

= 1,075 * (64 - 39)

= $‭26,875‬

<em>Signal makes an incremental income of $‭26,875‬ if they rework the phones so they should do that. </em>

Analyzing Revenues and Expenses and Completing an Income StatementNeighborhood Realty. Incorporated, has been operating forthree
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

We have two revenues: comissions earned, and rental services fees. The rest of the items are expenses. We simply have to add up all the revenues and all the expenses, and later, substract the expenses from the revenues. Then, we substract the income tax.

Revenues

Commissions $150,900

Rental Fees   $820,000

Total Revenues $970,900

Expenses

Salaries expense $562,740

Commissions expense $35,330

Payroll tax expense $2,500

Rent paid $1,475

Utilities expense $1,600

Promotion and avertising expense $7,750

Miscellaneous expense $5,500

Total Expenses $616,895

Pre-Tax Income = $970,900 - $616,895

                           = $645,005

Income tax paid = $24,400

Net Income = $645,005 - $24,400

                    = $620,605
