Answer:

Increase by $5,975

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the profit

First step is to calculate the Direct Material and Direct labor per unit

Direct Material and Direct labor per unit=$100,000/16,000

Direct Material and Direct labor per unit=$6.25

Second step is to calculate the Relevant Variable Overhead

Relevant Variable Overhead = 20,000 * 20%

Relevant Variable Overhead= $4,000

Third step is to calculate the

Relevant Variable Cost per unit = $4,000 / 16,000

Relevant Variable Cost per unit= $0.25

Fourth step is to calculate the Total Relevant Variable cost per unit

Total Relevant Variable cost per unit = $6.25 + $0.25

Total Relevant Variable cost per unit= $6.5

Fifth step is to calculate the Relevant Contribution Margin per unit

Relevant Contribution Margin per unit = $8.05 - $6.5

Relevant Contribution Margin per unit= $1.55

Sixth step is to calculate the Total Contribution

Total Contribution = 4,500 * $1.55

Total Contribution= $6,975

Now let calculate the profit using this formula

Profit = Contribution - Fixed Cost

Let plug in the formula

Profit = $6,975 - $650 - $350

Profit = $5,975

Therefore If Benjamin accepts the offer, its profits will:Increase by $5,975

dusya [7]

Answer: B. The capital gains yield is positive.

Explanation:

The Capital Gains Yield is a percentage figure that tells how much an investment has increased in price from it's acquisition.

It works by taking the new value and dividing it by the original value.

Using Stacy as an example, the Stock increased by $4 so assuming she bought the stock for even $0.1 then her Capital Yield is,

= 4/0.1

= 40 * 100%

= 4000% which is positive

As long as the stock was sold for more than it was bought, Capital Yield Gain is positive.

But 10 gauges are produced per hour out of which 2 will be kept as safety inventory stock, making it to be 10-2=8gauges per hour.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Zoie

The minimum amount the company should accept if Product 1 is sold at the split-off point is:

= $30,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                          Product 1    Product 2

Allocated joint processing costs         21,200        35,700

Sales value at split-off point                38,100        19,200

Costs of further processing                17,000        19,900

Sales value after further processing 30,000       28,300

The minimum amount the company should accept if Product 1 is sold at the split-off point is $30,000.

b) Further processing of Product 1 does not make economic sense.  Zoie should sell the product at split-off point at $38,100.  Similarly, based on the facts provided, Product 2 hardly deserves further processing.
