Assume that a company makes only three products: Product A, Product B, and Product C. Currently, the company uses a conventional

cost system that relies on plantwide overhead cost allocation based on direct labor-hours. It is considering replacing its conventional cost system with an activity-based costing (ABC) system.
The ABC system would include a total of four activities: Assembly (allocated to products based on direct labor-hours), Machine Setups (allocated to products based on number of setups), Material Handling (allocated to products based on the number of material moves), and Product Design (allocated to products based on the number of products).

Product A Product B Product C
Number of units produced 1,000 units 7,000 units 2,000 units
Direct labor hours per unit 2 hours 2 hours 2 hours
Number of setups 30 setups 50 setups 20 setups
Number of material moves 600 moves 400 moves 200 moves
Number of products 1 product 1 product 1 product

Using the activity-based costing approach, what percent of the company’s total Material Handling activity cost would be allocated to Product B?

a. 70%
b. 25%
c. 40%
d. 33%

Answer:

Company A

Using the activity-based costing approach, the percent of the company’s total Material Handling activity cost that would be allocated to Product B is:

 

d. 33%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                               Product A   Product B    Product C   Total Use

Number of units produced   1,000 units  7,000 units 2,000 units   10,000

Direct labor hours per unit        2 hours        2 hours       2 hours            6

Number of setups                  30 setups    50 setups   20 setups        100

Number of material moves  600 moves 400 moves  200 moves    1,200

Number of products                1 product     1 product     1 product           3

Product B usage of Material Handling Activity Cost:

Allocation Basis = Number of material moves

Product B material moves = 400

Total material moves = 1,200

Therefore, the percentage of Product B usage of material handling activity is:

= 400/1,200 * 100

= 33%

stich3 [128]

Monopolistically competitive firms are unable to produce enough output to reach the average total cost because of the presence of other monopolistically competitive firms in the industry.

  • Monopolistic competition arises when several businesses provide rival goods or services that are comparable but imperfect replacements.
  • Entry barriers are low in monopolistic competitive industries, and actions made by one business do not immediately impact those of its rivals. Pricing and marketing choices are how the rival firms set themselves apart.
  • Businesses engaged in monopolistic rivalry distinguish their goods through price and marketing tactics.
  • The expenses or other impediments that prohibit new rivals from joining a market are minimal in monopolistic competition.
  • Between perfect and monopolistic competition, known as monopolistic competition, there is monopolistic competition, which incorporates aspects of both and entails businesses with comparable but distinct product offers.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Cost of equity = 19.1 %

Explanation:

Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost

The Capital assets pricing model would be used to determined  the required rate of return

<em>The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  </em>

Using the CAPM , the required rate of return is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) - required return

β- Beta

Rm- Return on market

Rf- Risk-free rate

DATA

E(r) =? , Rf- 3%, Rm-14% , β- 1.1, flotation cost - 4%

E(r) = 3% + 1.1× (14% - 3%) = 15.1 %

Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost

                        = 15.1 % + 4% = 19.1 %

Cost of equity = 19.1 %
