The rising popularity of bubble and squeak as a breakfast item on the menu has resulted in a steady demand for peas. Over the co

urse of the past week, 457 patrons have ordered the hearty breakfast and each serving contains a half cup of English peas.

Answer:

The average inventory if they order at the optimal order quantity is 1.335

Explanation:

Accordin to the formula

Optimal order quantity = \sqrt{2*yearly demand * Order cost/Holding cost}

=\sqrt{2*52*457*3 / 0.02}

= 2670

Average inventory = Optimal order quantity / 2 = 1335.

A new truck is purchased on January 1, 20X6. The truck cost $10,000, has a 5-year life, and a $2,000 residual value. Given a Dec
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

20X9 depreciation expense is $160

Explanation:

Under the straight-line method, useful life is 5 years, so the asset's annual depreciation will be 20%.

Under the double-declining-balance method the 20% straight line rate is doubled to 40% - multiplied times the Depreciable cost's book value at the beginning of the year.

In 20X6, depreciation expense = 40% x $10,000 = $4,000

At the beginning of the year 20X7, the truck cost's book value is $10,000-$4,000 = $6,000

In 20X7, depreciation expense = 40% x $6,000 = $2,400

In 20X8, depreciation expense = 40% x ($10,000 - $4,000 - $2,400) = $1,440

Accumulated depreciation at December 31 20X8 = $4,000 + $2,400 + $1,440 = $7,840

Book value at December 31 20X8 = $10,000 - $4,000 - $2,400 - $1,440 = $2,160

In 20X9, depreciation expense = $10,000 - $2,000 - $7,840 = $160

The 20X9 depreciation expense was $160 which is less than the actual $864 (40% of $2,160). It was done to keep the residual value as estimated ($2,000)

True or false: The aggregate demand curve slopes downward because it reflects a direct relationship between the price level and
bearhunter [10]

The aggregate demand curve slopes downward because it reflects a direct relationship between the price level and the amount of real output demanded. This statement is false.

<h3>What is a demand curve?</h3>

It should be noted that a demand curve simply means the graph that illustrates the quantity bought at a price.

In this case, the curve slopes downward because output reduces as price increases. This shows an inverse relationship.

Direct materials-Materials requisition slips

Direct labor-Time tickets

Manufacturing overhead- Predetermined overhead rate

2. Calculation to determine the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate=125%

Therefore the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is 125%

3. Calculation to determine the total cost and the unit cost of the completed job

TOTAL COST

Direct Material $4, 700

($700 + $900 + $1,600 + $1,500)

Add Direct Labor $1,360

($440 + $380 + $540)

Add Manufacturing Overhead $1,700

($550 + $475 + $675)

Total Cost $7,760

UNIT COST

Unit cost= $7,760/ 2,500

Unit cost=$3.104

Therefore the total cost is $7,760 and the unit cost of the completed job is $3.104
