Answer:

1.$4.29 per cases

2. Extra Fine $14.29

Family Style $13.29

3a. Extra Fine $4.71

Family Style $0.29

3b. What might the management conclude about the Family Style Salsa product line is that Family Style salsa are not yielding profit which may may inturn make make the company to stop the production of the product in a situation where either the cost are not reduced or where the price.

Explanation:

1. Computation for the overhead cost that is assigned to each case of Extra Fine Salsa and each case of Family Style Salsa using Plantwide overhead rate

Using this formula

Overhead cost=Total overhead cost/Total volume

Let plug in the formula

First step is to calculate the Total overhead cost

Total overhead cost = $130,800 + $349,000 +$206,000

Total overhead cost =$685,800

Second step is to calculate the Total volume

Total volume= 35,000 + 125,000 cases

Total volume=160,000 cases

Now let calculate the Overhead cost

Overhead cost=$685,800/160,000 cases

Overhead cost=$4.29 per cases (rounded)

Therefore since we are making use of plantwide rate which means that same overhead cost of the amount of $4.29 per cases will be assigned to each of the two case .

2. Calculation to determine the total cost per case for the two products

Extra Fine Family Style

Direct materials + Direct Labor $ 10.00 $ 9.00

Add Overhead $4.29 $4.29

Manufacturing cost per case $ 14.29 $ 13.39

Therefore the the total cost per case for the two products will be:

Extra Fine $14.29

Family Style $13.29

3-A Calculation to determine the gross profit per case for each product.

Extra Fine Family Style

Selling price per case $ 19.00 $ 13.00

Less Manufacturing cost per case $14.29 $13.29

Gross profit (loss) per case $ 4.71. $ (0.29 )

Therefore the gross profit per case for each product will be ;

Extra Fine $4.71

Family Style $0.29

3-b. Based on the above Calculation What might the management conclude about the Family Style Salsa product line is that Family Style salsa are not yielding profit which may may inturn make make the company to stop the production of the product in a situation where either the cost are not reduced or where the price.

Family members may lend you money based on
Katarina [22]

Answer :a obligation.

The word obligation means “to be bound to act in a certain way either morally or legally.”

Hence when one is in need of money to start a business, family members may lend the money because they are bound to help you in times of need.  

Loans from family members are usually interest free.
