Consider Derek's budget information: materials to be used, $64,750; direct labor, $198,400; factory overhead, $394,800; work in
natita [175]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Materials to be used = $64,750;

Direct labor = $198,400;

Factory overhead = $394,800;

Work in process inventory on January 1, = $189,100;

Work in progress inventory on December 31, = $197,600

Firstly, we are calculating the manufacturing cost by adding direct material, direct labor cost and factory overhead. It is calculated as follows:

= Direct material + Direct labor + Factory overhead

= $64,750 + $198,400 + $394,800

= $657,950

Cost of goods manufactured determine the value of goods produced during a period of time. It refers to the cost that is incurred to convert the raw material into the finished goods.

Therefore, the cost of goods manufactured is calculated as follows:

= Manufacturing cost + Opening work in process - Closing work in in process inventory

= $657,950 + $189,100 - $197,600

= $649,450

The price elasticity of demand for a particular cancer drug is zero and the price elasticity of supply is 0.50. If a $1 excise t
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

$1 or 100% of the tax

Explanation:

When the price elasticity of demand is 0, it means that the good or service will be purchased regardless of its cost. Very few things have such a low price elasticity, and the fact that this is drug for treating cancer is the reason why that happens. Anyone that can purchase a drug that will keep you alive, will do so as long as you have enough money to do so. Another good with a very low price elasticity, but not 0, is gasoline with a 0.02 to 0.04, and gasoline is a basic necessity also.

The curve for a perfectly inelastic good is vertical. So any increase in taxes will be paid by the customers.
