Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

This involves revenue recognition based on percentage of work completed (cost to completion technique). Revenue to be recognized per time is assessed based on the level of cost incurred compared with the total cost to be incurred.

Given that the total approved budget for the project is $600,000, If at the end of the first three weeks of work, $160,000 has been spent, and five miles of road have been completed for a  a 15-mile road, the earned value of the project at the end of the first three weeks

= 5/15 * $600,000

= $200,000

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Canton Trade Mart has recently had lackluster sales. The rate of inventory turnover has​ dropped, and the merchandise is gathering dust. At the same​ time, competition has forced Canton​'s suppliers to lower the prices that Canton will pay when it replaces its inventory. It is now December​ 31, 2018​, and the net realizable value of Canton​'s ending inventory is $ 50,000 below what the company actually paid for the​ goods, which was $270,000. Before any adjustments at the end of the​ period, the Cost of Goods Sold account has a balance of $760,000.

a. What accounting action that Canton should take in this​ situation is inventory write down - from cost to net realizable Value as is prescribed by financial reporting standards.

c. At what amount should the company report Inventory on the balance​ sheet?

When new firms enter a monopolistically competitive​ market, the economic profits of existing firms A. will decrease because the
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Monopolistic competition is a market structure where there is a large number of producers selling differentiated products. These firms are price makers. There is very low or no restriction on the entry and exit of new firms.  

Positive economic profits earned by the existing firms will attract potential firms to enter the market. When new firms enter, it increases the supply in the market.  

This causes the price and market share of existing firms to decline. As the individual demand curves of the existing firms shift to the left, their profits will increase as well.

Todrick Company is a merchandiser that reported the following information based on 1,000 units sold: Sales $ 300,000 Beginning m
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Q=1000

Sales= $ 300,000

Beginning merchandise inventory= $20,000

Purchases= $200,000

Ending merchandise inventory= $7,000

Fixed selling expense= $ ?

Fixed administrative expense= $12,000

Variable selling expense= $15,000

Variable administrative expense= $ ?

Contribution margin= $60,000

Net operating income= $18,000

First, we have to calculate the variable administrative expense:

Contribution margin= sales - cost of goods sold - variable selling expense - variable administrative expense

60000= 300000 - (beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory) - 15000 - variable administrative expense

variable administrative expense= 300000 - (20000+200000-7000)-15000-60000

variable administrative expense= $12000

Now, we can calculate the fixed selling expense:

Net operating income= contribution margin - fixed selling expense - fixed administrative expense

18000= 60000 - fixed selling expense - 12000

fixed selling expense= 60000-12000-18000

fixed selling expense= 30000

A)Sales= 300,000

Variable costs:

Cost of good sold= 213,000

Variable selling expense= 15,000

Variable administrative expense= 12,000

Total variable cost= 240,000

Contribution margin=$60,000

Fixed costs:

Fixed selling expense= 30,000

Fixed administrative expense= 12,000

Total fixed cost= $42,000

Net profit= $18,000

B) Revenue= 300,000

COGS= 213,000 (-)

Gross porfit= 87000

Selling expense= (30000+15000)= 45,000

Administrative expense= (12000+12000)= 24,000

EBITDA= 18,000

C) Selling price per unit= 300,000/1000= $300

D) Variable cost per unit= total variable cost/q= 240000/1000= $240

E) Contribution margin per unit= 60000/1000= $60

F) The contribution format income statement, because you can easily analyze the effect of each unit in the cost structure and net income.
