Answer: $40

Explanation: Cost can be defined as the total resources of several forms used by the firm for the production of output. Cost can further be categorized into two parts fixed cost and variable cost. The cost that remains unchanged irrespective of the level of output is called fixed and the one that change with the level of output is called variable cost.

Therefore,

cost = fixed cost  + variable cost

$175 = fixed cost + ($33.75 * 4 )

fixed cost = $175 - $135

               = $40

Answer:

d. 15.09

Explanation:

425,000 sales

52,500 AR

year of 365 days

<u>Days Sales Outstanding</u>

\frac{52,500}{425,000}\times 365 = 45.088 = 45.09

<u>Average days late</u>

Days \: Sales \: Outstanding - \: Allowed \: credit \: period = average \: days \: late

45.09 - 30 = 15.09

in average customer pays within 45 days.

That is 15.09 days above the allowed credit period.

Komok [63]

Answer:

Lewis should recognize a gain on the exchane of $13,636

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount of gain or loss should Lewis recognize on the exchange, first we have to determine the amount of gain with the followig formula:

Gain=Total value of the machine received-Book value of machine exchanged

     =(cash received+fair value of machine received)- $950,000

     =($100,000+$1,000,000)-$950,000

     =$ 150,000

Next, In order to calculate the amount of gain or loss should Lewis recognize on the exchange we have to use the following formula:

recognize gain or loss=( <u>      cash received       )</u>× gain

                    cash received+fair value of equipment received

                                   =  (<u>    $ 100,000     </u>)× 150,000

                                  $100,000+$1,000,000

                                   =$13,636

Lewis should recognize a gain on the exchane of $13,636

B. Product-Costing

i. Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = Total Manufacturing overhead / Total Machine Hours

Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = 359,520.00  / 21,400.00

ii.  Particular                    Amount

Raw Material                     $6,240

Direct Labor Cost              <u>$9,165</u>

                                          $15,405

Manufacturing overhead  $13,104

(780 hours* $16.80)           <u>              </u>

Total Cost of 3900 Hats  <u>$28509</u>

Thus, the Cost of One hat = $28509 / 3900 hat = $7.31 per hat

iii. Total Hats made During the Month Of April    3,900

    Less: Closing Inventory                                     <u>1,050</u>  

    Sold During the month of April                       <u>2,850</u>

    Cost Of Hats Sold During the month of April  

    = 2,850 * $7.31

    = $20,833.5

Cost of Closing Stock (1,050 hat)  = 1,050 hat * $7.31 = 7675.5
