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

Houston Houston Office Equipment manufactures and sells metal shelving. It began operations on January​ 1,2014.
Vanyuwa [196]

Solution:

1) If 2 pounds of direct materials are used to make one unit of finished product, then 115,000 units × 2 lbs, or 230,000 lbs were used at $0.65 per lb of direct materials i.e. ($149,500 ÷ 230,000 lbs.).

The Formula for calculating Ending Direct Material Cost =  [Ending Direct Material Inventory * Cost per lb]

Therefore, Ending Direct Materials cost is 1,900 lbs. * $0.65 = $1,235.

2) Manufacturing Costs for 115,000 units  

   Variable Fixed Total

   Direct materials costs – $149,500  + Direct manufacturing labor costs – 31,500  + Plant energy costs – 3,000  + Indirect manufacturing labor costs

 

   (Variable + Fixed) i.e. 15,000+12,000 - 27,000  + Other indirect manufacturing costs

 

   (Variable + Fixed) i.e. 10,000+32,000 - 42,000

    So, Cost of goods manufactured - $253,000

Average unit manufacturing cost = $253,000 ÷ 115,000 units

                                                       = $2.20 per unit

Finished Goods Inventory at Dec. 31, 2014 = $15,400

Therefore Finished goods inventory total units = $15400 / $2.20

                                                                                = 7,000 units

3) Units sold in 2014 = Beginning inventory + Production – Ending inventory

                                   = 0 + 115,000 –7,000

                                 = 108,000 units

Therefore, Selling price in 2014 = Total Revenues / Units Sold

                                                      = $583,200 ÷ 108,000

                                                      = $5.40 per unit

4) Operating Income for 2014

            Revenues(108,000 units sold × $5.40) = $583,200

           Cost of units sold:

            Beginning finished goods, Jan. 1, 2014 = $0

            Cost of goods manufactured = $253,000

           Cost of goods available for sale = $253,000

           Ending finished goods, Dec. 31, 2014 = $15,400

           So, Cost of Units sold ($253000 - $15400) = $237,600

Therefore, Gross margin = Total Revenue - Cost of Units Sold

                                          = $583,200 - $237,600

                                         = $345,600

Operating costs:  Marketing, distribution, and customer-service costs

Variable + Fixed i.e. ($126,000 + $48,000) = $174,000

Administrative costs = $57000

Total Operating Costs = $231,000

Therefore Operating income for 2014 = $345600 - $231,000

                                                                = $114600

Explain how test-marketing can increase profits.
kirill [66]

Answer:

Test marketing holds a lot of importance for the company. It allows

the company to test their product in a small region so as to get an

idea whether the product will work in a bigger market or not.

Through this, the company can measure the performance of the

product and can decide whether it should be released nationwide

for sale. Through this, the company can estimate the earnings that

can be earned through this product beforehand.

Answer:

E. Division of the burden of a tax between the buyer and the seller

Explanation:

Tax incidence is an economic term for the division of a tax burden between buyers and sellers. Tax incidence is related to the price elasticity of supply and demand. When supply is more elastic than demand, the tax burden falls on the buyers. If demand is more elastic than supply, producers will bear the cost of the tax.
