Answer: Objective Impossibility

Explanation:

I believe this question has options but regardless, Objective Impossibility should be the answer.

Objective Impossibility arises when a party can no longer render the performance required.

The Subject Matter of a contract being destroyed or any other supervening Impossibility after the formation of the contract are considered types of Objectives Impossibility.

Seeing as the Porsche was the subject matter and it was destroyed, it qualifies as an Objective Impossibility.

Please do react or comment if you need any clarification.

Suppose iron ore is an input in producing steel. how will a decrease in the price of iron ore affect the market for​ steel
Lunna [17]
Direct relation. If iron is used to make steel, and iron is cheaper now, steel will also be cheaper. Decrease in price can mean they have a bunch of it, a surplus.
Supply and demand says if you got a lot of something prices go down. So if you have a lot of cheap iron, you can make a lot of cheap steel

Kahle Company has two support departments: Purchasing and Payroll. The Purchasing Department expense is $500,000 to process 50,0
allsm [11]

Answer: $15600

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of the Payroll Department's cost that is allocated to the Assembly Department goes thus:

First we need to calculate the allocation rate which will be:

= $300,000/25,000

= $12.

Then, the departmental cost will be:

= Payroll checks × Allocation rate

= 1,300 × $12

= $15,600.

Therefore, the amount of the Payroll Department's cost that is allocated to the Assembly Department is $15600.

For 2015, Bakers Manufacturing uses machine-hours as the only overhead cost-allocation base. The direct cost rate is $3.00 per u
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The profit margin earned if each unit requires two machine-hours is 25%

Explanation:

For computing the profit margin, first, we have to compute the estimated overhead rate per unit which is shown below:

Estimated Overhead rate = (Estimated manufacturing overhead costs) ÷ (estimated machine hours)

= ($240,000) ÷ (40,000 machine hours)

= $6

Now the profit per margin would equal to

= Selling price per unit - direct cost per unit - overhead cost per unit × number of required machine hours

= $20 - $3 - $6 × 2

= $5

Now the profit margin would equal to

= (Profit per unit) ÷ (selling price per unit) × 00

= ($5 ÷ $20) × 100

= 25%
