Wilturner Company incurs $88,000 of labor related directly to the product in the Assembly Department, $37,000 of labor related t
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry that would include is shown below:

Work in Progress inventory A/c Dr           $125,000

Factory overhead A/c   Dr                         $24,000

(Being labor cost is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

Work in progress = Labor expenses + whole labor expenses

                             =$88,000 + $37,000

                             = $125,000

The labor expenses are directly related to the product which means it is a direct cost

And, the whole labor expense is considered to be the overhead cost as it is not directly related to the product

And, the $24,000 is also considered as an overhead cost because it is used in both the departments so it is come under the factory overhead account

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The preparation of the 2021 EPS presentation for the Esposito Import Company is shown below:

Income from continuing operations                           $7 million

Less: Loss from discontinued operations                  ($1.4 million)

Net income                                                   $5.6 million

Now the earning per share would be

Earning per share = (Net income) ÷ (Number of shares)

                              = ($5.6 million) ÷ (1 million shares)

                              = $5.6 per share

Economic Order Quantity computes:
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

D: Optimum Order size​

Explanation:

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is a formula applied in logistic and supply chain management to calculate a business's ideal order size. As the name suggests, the order EOQ provides an order quantity that makes economic sense.

Economies of scale suggest that a bigger order size is better because the business will save transport costs. However, ordering in large quantities increases the cost of holding stock. The economic order quantity strikes a balance between these two important factors.
