Answer:

Maximum total profit = $4,800

Explanation:

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.

Therefore the Company should allocate the budget cost  to maximize the profit per production cost. This is done as follows:

Calculate the profit per budget cost and rank the product

                                              Gasoline      Heating oil

Profit per product cost         3/6=0.5                    4/8= 0.5

The two products produce the same profit per dollar of cost which is $0.5. So, they are equally ranked.

So the total profit= the budget cost × profit per budget

                           = 9,600× $0.5 =$4,800

Maximum total profit = $4,800

Nico bought 500 shares of a stock for $24.00 per share on January 1, 2013. He received a dividend of $2.50 per share at the end
klemol [59]

Answer:

22.92%

Explanation:

For computing the realized total rate of return, first we have to determine the total share price which is shown below:

Total share price = Sale price of share + dividend end of 2013 + dividend end of 2014 + dividend end of 2015

= $20 + $2.5 + $4 + $3

= $29.50

And, the purchase price is $24

So, the return would be

= Total share price - purchase price

= $29.50 - $24

= $5.50

Now the realized total rate of return would be

= Return ÷ Purchase price

= $5.50 ÷ $24

= 22.92%

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

Frito-lay's sunchips line of snack foods uses solar power at one of its eight production facilities to harness the sun's energy
Leno4ka [110]

The answer to the blank space is green-oriented.

Green-oriented products are also known as environmental-friendly products, which means either the product is created from raw materials that will not cause harm upon use or disposal to the environment, or that the product is created through a process that does not impact the environment in a harmful manner.

In the Frito-Lay’s case of snack food manufacturing, it is clear that this is the second type of environmental-friendly product, since the product is partially produced using solar power which leads to less harmful pollution for the environment.

Smith Fabricating uses job costing and applies overhead using a normal costing system and uses direct labour cost as the allocat
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: C. $950

Explanation:

Hello.

Your question was missing a few details so I threw them in. You'll find it in attachments.

To calculate the total Manufacturing costs for Job 201 we would need to calculate the overhead cost allocation rate first to find out how much Overhead to allocate to Job 201.

Using a normal costing system with direct labour cost as the allocation base,

Overhead allocation rate = (Overheads/Direct Labor Cost)*100

= (100,000/50,000)*100

=200%

Overhead allocation rate is 200% or 2x direct labor cost.

Now to calculate the total Manufacturing costs of Job 201,

Total manufacturing cost for Job 201 = Direct Material + Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overheads

= 350 + 200 + (200*2 for manufacturing overhead)

= 350 + 200 + 400

= $950

$950 is the total manufacturing cost for Job 201 making option C correct.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$85,500

= $96,000 - $10,500

= $85,500

Simply we subtract the deferred income tax before income tax from the warranty expense so that the actual amount could come
