Answer:

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of units= 12,000

Make in-house:

Direct material, $15

direct labor, $27

variable overhead, $15

applied fixed overhead, $32

Buy:

Buying price= $60

If Fischer buys the part, 75 percent of the applied fixed overhead would continue.

<u>First, we will calculate the avoidable fixed overhead per unit:</u>

Avoidable fixed overhead= 32*0.25= $8

<u>Now, the total differential cost of making in-house:</u>

<u></u>

Total cost of production= 12,000*(15 + 27 + 15 + 8)

Total cost of production= 12,000*65

Total cost of production= $780,000

Total cost of buying= 60*12,000= $720,000

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

$468,844 approx.

Explanation:

<u>Assumption</u>: <u>Since the question is incomplete, with the available information it has been construed that calculation of bond price is required and the question has been solved accordingl</u>y.

The price of a bond is the present value of future cash receipts it generates to the investor in the form of interest stream and principal stream.

B_{0} = \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} } \ + \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} }

wherein,

B_{0} = price of bond as on today

i = annual coupon payments

ytm= investor's expectation of interest or market rate of interest on similar bonds

RV = Redemption value of such bonds assumed to be the face value

n = term to maturity

B_{0} = \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} } \ + \frac{500000}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} }

B_{0}= 12.46221  × 22,500 + 0.376889 × 22,500 = 280,399.725 + 188444.5

B_{0} = $468,844 approx

This is the present value of the bond which is lower than it's face value because market rate of return of similar bonds is higher than the coupon rate of payment by Westside Corporation.

amid [387]

Answer: $80

Explanation:

Since the fixed costs are $180,000 and variable costs are $540,000, then the total cost will be:

= Fixed cost + Variable cost

= $180000 + 540000

= $720000

Since there are 9000 units, then the unit sales price will be:

= $720000 / 9000

= $80

The unit sales price is $80
