State law of diminishing returns​

Business
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

The law of diminishing marginal returns indicates that in every production process, adding one more input while holding the others constant will result in the overall decrease in output.

According to this law,  adding one more production unit diminishes the marginal returns, and the average production cost increases. Marginal returns refer to the benefits associated with the production of an extra unit.  

The gain derived from the use of more input while keeping all other factor constant decreases as production increases. For example, employing more workers while all other variables remain constant will result in reduced labor productivity.

Using the estimated sales and production of 140,000 boxes of Chap-Off, the Accounting Department has developed the following man
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Silven Industries

If Silven buys its tubes from the outside supplier, it will be able to avoid $1.10 of its own Chap-Off manufacturing costs per box

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Production and Sales Units of Chap-Off = 140,000 boxes

Manufacturing cost per box:      Avoidable costs

Direct material              $ 3.70           $0.74 ($3.70 * 20%)

Direct labor                      2.00             0.20 ($2.00 * 10%)

Manufacturing overhead 1.60              0.16 ($1.60 * 10%)

Total cost                      $ 7.30            $1.10

Outside supplier's price for tubes = $1.20 per box

b) Unless there an alternative use for the machine used in making the tubes internally exists, it may not be cost-effective for Silven to buy from the outside supplier.  Alternatively, it should renegotiate a price per box that is less than $1.10 in order to stop making the tubes internally.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

- The balance in the subsidiary ledger will equal the balance of its supported account in the general ledger.

- The account which the subsidiary ledger supports in the general ledger is called a control account.

- It is a supporting ledger that contains detailed information about a general ledger account.

- Two of the most common subsidiary ledgers are for Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.

Explanation:

A subsidiary ledger is defined as a supporting ledger that contains details of an account on the general ledger.

It gives a breakdown of the single amount that reflects in a general ledger account.

For example if the accounts payable account has a balance of $50,000, the subsidiary ledger will show the individual transactions that make up the $50,000.

Therefore the balance of the subsidiary ledger will equal the amount in the general ledger account.
