Schultz Electronics manufactures two ultra high-definition television models: the Royale which sells for $1,580, and a new model

, the Majestic, which sells for $1,270. The production cost computed per unit under traditional costing for each model in 2020 was as follows.
Traditional Costing Royale Majestic
Direct materials $650 $420
Direct labor ($20 per hour) 120 100
Manufacturing overhead ($42 per DLH) 252 210
Total per unit cost $1,022 $730

In 2017, Schultz manufactured 25,000 units of the Royale and 10,000 units of the Majestic. The overhead rate of $42 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing the total expected manufacturing overhead of $8,449,220 by the total direct labor hours (200,000) for the two models. Under traditional costing, the gross profit on the models was Royale $458 ($1,480 - $1,022) and Majestic $540 ($1,270 - $730). Because of this difference, management is considering phasing out the Royale model and increasing the production of the Majestic model. Before finalizing its decision, management asks Schultz's controller to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing (ABC). The controller accumulates the following information about overhead for the year ended December 31, 2017.


Activity Cost Pools Cost Drivers Estimated Overhead Expected Use of Cost Drivers Activity-Based Overhead Rate
Purchasing Number of orders $1,261,700 40,700 $31/order
Machine setups Number of setups 874,120 16,810 $52/setup
Machining Machine hours 5,440,500 120,900 $45/hour
Quality control Number of inspections 872,900 30,100 $29/inspection

The cost drivers used for each product were:

Cost Drivers Royale Majestic Total
Purchase orders 17,600 23,100 40,700
Machine setups 14,510 2,300 16,810
Machine hours 75,300 45,600 120,900
Inspections 11,900 18,200 30,100
Assign the total 2017 manufacturing overhead costs to the two products using activity-based costing (ABC) and determine the overhead cost per unit. (Round cost per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)

Required:
Calculate cost per unit of each model using ABC costing.

Sammy says, “I don’t think it’s fair that I have to pay for car insurance when I’m a super safe driver.” Explain why this logic
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Car insurance isn't in place for people who are bad drivers, although I'm sure it helps them too. It's in place for situations you can never predict. Just because you're a good driver doesn't mean the people around you aren't. You have no control of other people's actions, so you might actually need that insurance Sammy.

If you charge/plug in your phone on a Xbox will the stuff in ur camera roll on your phone be on/in the Xbox???
Ronch [10]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

You said if you <em>charge</em>, so it will only charge your phone. You aren't able to upload photos directly to an Xbox.

Although, if you are pc, you can upload a custom gamerpic easily.

(An example would be a gamerpic, you need the app in order to have a custom gamerpic because it accesses your files).

Product X-547 is one of the joint products in a joint manufacturing process. Management is considering whether to sell X-547 at
Sphinxa [80]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

The correct answer is I, II, III, and IV

The reason behind is that joint cost is always related to the multifarious products.  Joint expense is the assembling cost brought about on a joint creation process which takes regular sources of info however at the same time delivers various items called joint-items, for example, preparing of raw petroleum at the same time yields gas, diesel, stream fuel, greases and different items.  

So, as to apportion expenses to such joint items, bookkeepers need to utilize an appropriate cost portion technique on a predictable premise. The joint cost alludes to that cost which is brought about before the split-off point on the creation or assembling of numerous items, by expending similar data sources or factors of creation.

If a payback period for a project is greater than its expected useful life, the project's return will always exceed the company'
Rudiy27

Answer:

entire initial investment will not be recovered.

Explanation:

Payback period is one of the methods used in capital budgeting.

Payback period calculates how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from its cummulative cash flows.

For example, if a project costs $360 and the cash flow each year for its 6 years useful life is $120. The amount invested would be gotten back from the cummulative cash flow in 3 years.

But if a project costs $360 and the cash flow each year for its 2 years useful life is $120. The amount invested would never be gotten back the cummulative cash flow. Therefore, the entire investment amount will never be entirely recovered.

The project will always not be profitable

I hope my answer helps you.

19. An investor has purchased a property that is giving him a 10% rate of return. Potential gross rents total $10,000.00 a month
gogolik [260]

Answer:

the market value of the property is $628,300

Explanation:

The computation of the market value of the property is shown below;

Gross rent $10,000 × 12= $120,000

Now

= $120,000 ×  .92 (occupancy rate)

= $110,400

After that

= $110,400 - $47,570

= $62,830

And ,finally the market value of the property is

= $62,830 ÷ 0.10  

= $628,300

hence, the market value of the property is $628,300
