The original cost of an inventory item is below both replacement cost and net realizable value. The net realizable value less no
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

D) Original cost.

Explanation:

When the company uses the lower of cost or market method, it should assign value to its inventory by calculating the middle figure between replacement cost or net realizable value, and net realizable value - normal profit.

In this case, the market value must be either the replacement cost or the net realizable value, but both values are the highest. Since the original cost is below the market value, but above the net realizable value - normal profit, the inventory must be valued at the original cost.

Crane Company can produce and sell only one of the following two products: Oven Contribution Hours Required Margin Per Unit Muff
Makovka662 [10]

The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity                        

                               Oven                                  Contribution

                         Hours Required                 Margin Per Unit

Muffins                        0.2                                           $4

Coffee Cakes        0.3                                        $5

Answer:

Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00

Explanation:

<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in  such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>

Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:

Step 1

<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>

                                                                      cont/hr                   ranking

Muffin                        $4/0.2 hour =              20                     <em> 1st</em>

Coffee cakes                 $5/0.3 hour=        16.67                      2nd

<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>

Step 2

<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>

Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000

                                        = $ 60,000.00

A business operated at 100% of capacity during its first month, with the following results: Sales (90 units) $90,000 Production
umka21 [38]

Answer:

d.$18,900

Explanation:

Gross Profit is the net of Sales value and production cost in the period for the units sold. Under absorption costing all the direct and indirect costs incurred in the production of products are included in the total production cost. As the cost is available for 100 units produced we need to calculate the cost of 90 unit and deduct this cost from the sales value to determine the gross profit and then deduct the operating expenses to calculate the operating income.

Sales (90 units)                                                                  $90,000

Less: Production costs:

Direct materials ( $40,000 x 90/100 )              $36,000

Direct labor ( 20,000 x 90/100 )                       $18,000

Variable factory overhead ( 2,000 x 90/100 ) $1,800

Fixed factory overhead ( 7,000 x 90/100 )      <u>$6,300</u>

Total Production cost                                                       <u>($62,100)</u>

Gross Profit                                                                        $27,900

Less Operating expenses:

Variable operating expenses $8,000

Fixed operating expenses      $1,000

                                                                                          <u>($9,000)</u>

Operating Income                                                             <u>$18,900</u>
