Answer:
Flexible budget cost materials and supplies= $2,720
Explanation:
In the flexible budget, we need to multiply the standard quantities by the actual activity.
<u>Standard cost formula:</u>
materials and supplies= 1,950 + 14*x
x= number of vehicles
<u>For 55 vehicles:</u>
Flexible budget cost= 1,950 + 14*55
Flexible budget cost= $2,720
Answer:
The required adjusting entry to record estimated bad debts expense is as follows:
Debit Bad Debts Accounts with $39,960
Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts with $39,960
Being the adjustment to bring the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts up a new credit balance of $43,625.
Explanation:
The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a credit balance of $3,665. Since management had estimated that $43,625 of the Accounts Receivable balance would be uncollectible, this means that the difference $39,960 ($43,625 - $3,665) would be the adjusting amount to bring the balance up-to-date.
Remember that the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a contra account to the Accounts Receivable. It is used to reduce the balance of the Accounts Receivable based on collectibility judgement or estimate which management makes out of experience. The balance in this account is, therefore d,educted from the Accounts Receivable in the Balance Sheet in order to obtain the net Accounts Receivable balance.
The account that expenses the increase in this account is the Bad Debts Expense Account, which is taken to the Income Statement to reduce the income.
Answer:
a) Learning Costs Curve:
Quantity Marginal Total Cost ($) Average Cost (Units)
Cost ($) ($/unit)
1 $76 $76 $76
2 $70 $146 $73
3 $64 $210 $70
4 $58 $268 $67
5 $52 $320 $64
6 $46 $366 $61
b) For a request for proposal for two units, the break-even price for the two units is $146 ($73 per unit).
c) For two more units, the break-even price for them alone is $122 ($268 - $146). Each unit's break-even price will be $61 ($122/2).
Explanation:
a) A break-even price is a price that is equal to the total cost. At break-even, there is no profit and there is no loss. The total cost equals total revenue.
b) The learning cost curve shows how the "marginal cost decreases as a result of an increase in production by one unit." This curve can be illustrated graphically to show how the marginal and average costs reduce as a result of the increase in the quantity produced.
