Gabe industries sells two products, basic models and deluxe models. Basic models sell for $44 per unit with variable costs of $2

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Basic models Deluxe models

Sales price $44 $54

Variable costs $25 $25

Contribution margin $9 $29

Sales mix 1 3

Total contribution margin $9 $87

Contribution margin per unit = $9 + $87 = $96

Weighted contribution margin= Total contribution margin / Units

= $96 / $4

= $24

Break even point = Total fixed costs / Weighted contribution margin

Break even point = $1,441 / $24

Break even point = 60 units

•Basic units = 60 × 63.33% = 38 units of basic

•Deluxe units = 60 × 43.33% = 26 units of Deluxe units

valkas [14]

Answer:

The bid amount should be $13,200,264.

Explanation:

An oil and gas producing company owns 42,000 acres of land in a southeastern state.

It operates 630 wells which produce 18,000 barrels of oil per year and 1.7 million cubic feet of natural gas per year.

The revenue from the oil is $1,800,000 per year and for natural gas the annual revenue is $581,000 per year.

Total Annual Revenue

= Revenue from oil + Revenue from gas

= $1,800,000 + $581,000

= $2,381,000

The bid amount should be the present worth of total annual revenue.

Present Worth of total annual revenue

= $Revenue \times\ \frac{( 1 + i )^{n} -1 }{i (1 + i)^{n} }$

= $$2,381,000\ \times\ \frac{( 1 + 0.11 )^{9} -1 }{0.11 × (1 + 0.11)^{9} }$

= $$2,381,000\ \times\ \frac{( 1.11 )^{9} -1 }{0.11 × (1.11)^{9} }$

= $$2,381,000\ \times\ \frac{2.5580 - 1 }{0.11 × 2.5580 }$

= $$2,381,000\ \times\ \frac{1.5580 }{0.281}$

= $$2,381,000\ \times\ 5.544$

= $13,200,264

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The answer is option (B), accumulated depreciation at end of the second year=36,000+45,600=$81,600

Explanation:

Determine the depreciable cost using the formula below;

depreciable cost=acquisition cost-residual value

where;

acquisition cost=$190,000

residual value=$10,000

replacing;

depreciable cost=190,000-10,000=$180,000

depreciable cost=$180,000

Determine the cost per unit as follows;

depreciable cost=cost per bolt×number of bolts produced

where;

depreciable cost=$180,000

cost per bolt=c

number of bolts produced=75,000 bolts

replacing;

180,000=c×75,000

75,000 c=180,000

c=180,000/75,000=2.4

The cost per bolt=$2.4

annual depreciation for the first year=(2.4×15,000)=$36,000

annual depreciation for the second year=(2.4×19,000)=$45,600

accumulated depreciation at end of the second year=36,000+45,600=$81,600

The following information summarizes the standard cost for producing one metal tennis racket frame at Spaulding Industries. In a

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Actual Price paid for materials = $4.2136 $\times$ 2,200 = $9,270

Actual price per unit = $4.2136

Explanation:

Provided information,

Standard Material per unit = $4

Total cost = $8,400

Standard Quantity = $8,400/$4 = 2,100 units

Provided Material Price variance = $470 unfavorable = - $470

$= (Standard Price - Actual Price) \times Actual Units$

Material Quantity Variance = $400 Unfavorable = - $400

$= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) \times Standard Rate$

Using Material Quantity Variance

- $400 = (2,100 - Actual Quantity) $\times$ $4

-$400/$4 = 2,100 - Actual Quantity

Actual Quantity = 2,100 + 100 = 2,200 units

Now, putting this value in Material Price Variance we have,

- $470 = ($4 - Actual Price) $\times$ 2,200

-$470/2,200 = $4 - Actual Price

- $0.214 = $4 - Actual Price

Actual Price = $4 + $0.2136 = $4.2136

Final Answer

Actual Price paid for materials = $4.2136 $\times$ 2,200 = $9,270

Actual price per unit = $4.2136
