Answer:
$12.40
Explanation:
Activity Estimated Indirect Allocation Base Estimated Q. of
Activity Costs Allocation Base
<u>Materials handling $7,700 Number of parts 7,350 parts </u>
<u>Assembling $10,500 Number of parts 7,350 parts </u>
Packaging $2,410 Number of units 1,470 bookshelves
The direct materials cost per bookshelf is $39. What is the cost of materials handling and assembling per bookshelf?
materials handling cost per part = $7,700 / 7,350 parts = $1.05
assembling cost per part = $10,500 / 7,350 parts = $1.43
total cost per part = $2.48
cost per bookshelf = 5 x $2.48 = $12.40
Answer:
Value of closing inventory = $ 28,125.00
Explanation:
To value inventory, we multiply the cost per equivalent unit of production (cost per EUP) by the the number of equivalent units(EUP) for each of the cost element.
So the value of the closing inventory, is determined as follows:
Value of inventory = cost per E.U.P × number of E.U.P
Material = $2.50 × 4,500 = 11,250.00
Labour and overhead= $3.75 × 4,500 = 16,875.00
Total amount of work in progress
= 11,250 + 16, 875
= $ 28,125.00
Answer:
B) government spending and taxes that automatically increase or decrease along with the business cycle.
Explanation:
The two most common automatic stabilizers are: income taxes and unemployment benefits.
When the economy is strong, people make more money, and income tax revenue automatically increases.
On the contrary, when the economy is weak, or in recession, people earn less, and more of them are unemployed. Unemployment benefits therefore increase accordingly.
Answer:
The answer to both a and b is in the explanation below
Explanation:
a) The increase in wage can either decrease or increase the hours worked. This is became an increase in wage has both substitution effect and income effect that work in different directions. Substitution effect An increase in wage increases the opportunity cost of leisure, thereby making the worker increase number of hours worked. Income effect The increase in wage also makers the worker richer, thereby making the worker decrease number of hours worked.
Since no information about worker's preferences is given, we do not Imow which effect will dominate the other effect and, therefore, we do not know what the net impact of the increase in wage will be.
b) The bonus will only have income effect. The bonus will make the workers richer, thereby making the worker decrease number of hours worked.
If in part a), the substitution effect and income effect are equal in magnitude, then there will be no change in the number of hours worked. The number of hours worked will remain the same at 2000 hours. Since the employer would be paying $5 extra on each hour worked, the cost to the employer of increase in wage would be $10,000 (=2000 x $5), which is the same as the bonus in part b).

The answer is B. share value
