Answer:

Loss= $7,500

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the book value of the equipment:</u>

<u></u>

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 79,000 - 39,500

Book value= $39,500

<u>If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company made a profit by selling the equipment. </u>

<u></u>

Gain/loss= selling price - book value

Gain/loss= 32,000 - 39,500

Loss= $7,500

A firm is producing 24 units of output. At the 24th unit of output, marginal revenue is $5, and marginal cost is $4; at the 25th
agasfer [191]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

(1) Units produced = 24 units of output

At the 24th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $5

Marginal cost = $4

MR ≠ MC

At the 25th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4.50

Marginal cost = $4.50

MR = MC

At the 26th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4

Marginal cost = $5

MR ≠ MC

A firm maximizes its profit at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost i.e. MR = MC.

It is clear from the above scenario that this firm doesn't stop at 24 units of output because at this point of production profit maximizing condition is not fulfilled which means MR ≠ MC.

This firm should stopped at 25 units of output where marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost from the 25th unit of output.

ziro4ka [17]
739,000 - 219,000 = 520,000

The net assets are assets minus liabilities, so it is $520,000 in this case.

Sheffield Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $315,000 (units 5,000); variable costs
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

1. the net income if selling price increased by 10% would be = $59,700

Net income increased by $31,500.

Explanation:

Given,

Sales = $315,000

Variable costs = $216,000

Fixed costs = $70,800

No. of units = 5,000

                                   Sheffield Company

             Income Statement (Contribution Margin Format)

Particulars                                                $

Sales                                                    315,000

Less: Variable expenses                  <u> (216,000)</u>

Contribution Margin                             99,000

Less: Fixed costs                         <u>        (70,800)</u>

Net Income                                          28,200

Since the selling price increased by 10% and no change in variable costs and volume, therefore, we can get -

<em>Sales = $315,000 x (1 + 0.10) = $346,500</em>

In this case, the net income will be as follows:

Sales                          = $346,500

<u>Less: Variable Costs =  (216,000)</u>

Contribution Margin  =   130,500

<u>Less: Fixed Costs      =   (70,800)</u>

Net Income                =   59,700

For Crafton Company, indirect labor is budgeted for $57,000 and factory supervision is budgeted for $65,000 at normal capacity o
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

$124,700

Explanation:

Indirect labor budgeted is $57,000

Factory supervision is $65,000

The normal capacity is 142,500

Direct labor 145,000

Therefore the flexible budget can be calculated as follows

= 57,000+65,000/142,500

= 122,000/142,500

= 0.86

0.86×145,000

= 124,700

Hence the flexible budget is $124,700
