Answer:

d) $60,000 is released into working capital

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is the number of times that a firm buys and sells inventory. A high inventory means that the company sells its stock many times in a year.

the formula for inventory turnover ratio

=Cost of goods sold/ average inventory

If a firm has COGS of $800,000 and an inventory turnover of 5, then the average inventory will be

=$800,000 /5

=$160,000

If the firm improves its  turnover to 8, then the average inventory will be

=$800,000/8

=$100,000

The firm average inventory will  $100,000 as opposed to $160,000 previously.

$60,000  will be released to working capital.

Dakota Products uses a job-costing system with two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct manufacturing labor) and
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

1.Overhead Rate = Overhead Costs/ Direct Labor Costs

Budget Overhead Rate = 3060,000/ 1700,000= 1.8

Actual Overhead Rate = 3217,500/ 1650,000= 1.895

Dakota Products

                                Budget for 2017                  Actual Results for 2017

Direct material costs $2,250,000                          $2,150,000

Direct manufacturing labor costs 1,700,000          1,650,000

Manufacturing overhead costs 3,060,000            3,217,500

2.During March, the job-cost record for Job 626

Direct materials used $55,000

Direct manufacturing labor costs $45,000

Actual Overhead  = 1.895 * $45,000= $ 85295.45

Normal Overhead = 1.8 * 45,000= $ 81,000

2.The  actual cost of Job 626 =$ 55,000+ $ 45,000+ $ 85295.45= $ 185,295.45

2.The  normal cost of Job 626 =$ 55,000+ $ 45,000+ $ 81,000= $181,000

3. Under- or Overallocated Overhead under normal costing=

     Budgeted Overhead - Actual Overhead= 3,060,000 -  3,217,500=

157,500 underapplied

There is no under- or overallocated overhead under actual costing because  overhead costs actually are at their actual costs. There is no difference between calculated and actual.

4. Normal Costing would give an idea before 2017 and it is easier to make decision prior to changes. Actual results can only be obtained after the process. Managers find it easier to pre plan . So normal costing is adoptable.

Which type of company enjoys the benefit of passing along deductions and credits of the company on to partners to file on their
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is Limited Liability Partnerships.

Explanation:

A Limited Liability Company is a type of mercantile company, in which the liability is limited to the capital contributed, and therefore, in the event that debts are incurred, it does not respond with the personal assets of the partners, but to the one contributed in said Limited company. It presents as a capitalist-type society in which capital, which will be divided into social interests, will be integrated by the contributions of all partners, who will not respond personally to social debts.

Social ACTIONS are not equivalent to the actions of corporations, as there are legal obstacles to their transmission. In addition, they do not have a "value" character and cannot be represented by means of securities or account entries, and their transmission by means of the public document that will be registered in the partner register book is mandatory. It will be constituted in a public deed and subsequently in the registration of the commercial register, at which time it acquires legal personality.
