Answer:

e. Sunk cost.

Explanation:

As per the given statement, the best appropriate option is sunk cost. As the sunk cost deals with the past cost which is already incurred in the past and it cannot be changed or avoided, neither it can be recovered. Example - Rent expense.

The level of inventory of a manufactured product has increased by 8,000 units during a period. The following data are also avail
LiRa [457]

Answer:

There will be a difference in the income .

Absorption costing income will be lower as it transfers all the fixed costs to the ending inventory.

Variable costing income will be higher as it does not transfer  the fixed costs to the ending inventory.

The difference will be  of $ 104000

Explanation:

Increase in units 8000                                                              

                                                              Variable       Fixed

Unit manufacturing costs of the period $24.00 $10.00

Unit operating expenses of the period    8.00       3.00

Total Unit Costs                                       $ 32.00    $ 13.00

The net operating income under variable costing for the year will be $ 13* 8000= $ 104000 Lower than the net operating income under  absorption costing.  This is because the all fixed costs will be treated as period cost rather than product costs.

In variable costing the ending inventory will be $104000 lower than the ending inventory under absorption costing  because the fixed costs will not be allocated to products.

Under variable costing, the units in the ending inventory will be costed at $32 each.Under absorption costing, the units in the ending inventory will be costed at $32+ $ 13= $ 45 each.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Equilibrium price to be indeterminate from the information given, but equilibrium quantity to rise.

Explanation:

The recent rains resulted in an increase in demand for kayaks so the equillibrum quantity demanded will rise. Supply will also rise to meet the increased demand.

However we are unable to determine if the price will rise or fall with the given information.

Plastic is cheaper now so kayaks will also be cheaper. On the other hand increase in demand naturally causes an increase in price. So the cheaper price of kayaks will need to be compared with price increases as a result of increased demand to determine if equillibrum price will rise or fall.
