Answer:

$20,909.09

Explanation:

We have been given that Slotnick Chemical received $230,000 from customers as deposits on returnable containers during 2018. 10% of the containers were not returned. The deposits are based on the container cost marked up 10%.

The price after mark-up would be 100\%+10\%=110\%

To find the profit on the forfeited deposits, we will divide $230,000 times 10% by 110% as:

\text{Profit on the forfeited deposits}=\frac{\$230,000\times 10\%}{110\%}

\text{Profit on the forfeited deposits}=\frac{\$230,000}{11}

\text{Profit on the forfeited deposits}=\$20,909.0909

\text{Profit on the forfeited deposits}\approx \$20,909.09

Therefore, Slotnick realize a profit of $20,909.09 on the forfeited deposits.

Answer:

Explanation:

Standard hours per week = 40 hours

Standard rate per hour = $32

Actual rate per hour = $40

Labour rate variance = 40 - 32 = $8 (unfavourable)

Actual cost per week = 40 × 40 = $1600

Standard cost per week = 40 × 32 = $1280

Labour cost variance = actual cost per week - standard cost per week

= 1600 - 1280

= $320 (unfavourable)

Actual codes written in first week = 5650

Standard codes per week = 5 × 25 × 40 = 5000

Actual cost per code = 1600/5660 = $0.2832

Standard cost per code = 1280/5000 = 0.256

Labour efficiency variance = 0.2832 - 0.256 = $0.0272 (unfavourable)

If the team generated 4,650 lines of code according to the original plan:

Code generated = 4650

Number of programmers = 5

Average codes per hour per programmer = 25

Total codes per hour = 25 × 5 = 125

Standard codes per week = 40 × 125 = 5000

Actual time to write 4650 codes = 4650/125 = 37.2 hours

Standard time = 40 hours

Idle time = 40 - 37.2 = 2.8 hours

Labour time variance = 2.8 hours

Cost of idle time = 2.8 × 32 = $89.6 (unfavourable)

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

(A) $110,000

(B) $44,000

(C) $440,000

(D) $176,000

Explanation:

Parent corporation invested $1,000,000 in sub corpora tion for 25% of its outstanding stock

Sub corporation pays out 40% of net income of dividend each year

(A) Parent's Co's share of Sub's Co's net income for the year is $110,000

(B) Parent's Co's share of Sub's Co's share of dividend for the year is $44,000

(C) The total net income can be calculated as follows

= 110,000 ×100/25

= 11,000,000/25

= $440,000

(D) The total dividend for the year can be calculated as follows

= 440,000 ×40/100

= 440,000 × 0.4

= $176,000

Answer:

The amount of tax will be $3
Tax Burden on consumer is $2
Tax burden on producer ( in case you want to know) will be $1

Check the image below.

Tax is equal to the difference between the price actually paid by the buyer and the price actually received by the seller. Tax= Price paid by buyer-Price received by seller Tax= $8-$5 Tax = $3 Thus the tax computed is $3 per case.

The annual carrying cost for a consumer product is $115, the ordering cost is $1,150, and the annual demand is estimated to be 1
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Store should take the advantage of discount.

Explanation:

Economic order quantity is the level of units ordered which minimize the total cost.

The economic order quantity (EOQ) is computed by applying the following formula

EOQ = [ ( 2DO ) / H ]^1/2

where D = Annual Demand in units = 1,000

S = Setup or ordering cost = $1,150

H = Holding or carrying cost per unit, per year = $115

EOQ = [ ( 2 x 1,000 x $1,150 ) / $115 ]^1/2

EOQ = [ $2,300,000 / $115 ]^1/2

EOQ = 20,000^1/2

EOQ = 141.42 units

Cost of EOQ

Purchasing cost =  1,000 x $810 = $810,000

Ordering cost = (1,000 / 141.42) x $1,150 = $8,132

Carrying cost = ( 141.42 / 2 ) x $115 = $8,132

Total cost = $810,000 + $8,132 + $8,132 = $826,264

Cost of Discount

Purchasing cost =  1,000 x $810 x 80% = $648,000

Ordering cost = (1,000 / 151) x $1,150 = $7,616

Carrying cost = ( 151 / 2 ) x $115 = $8,683

Total cost = $648,000 + $7,616 + $8,683 = $664,299

Store should take the advantage of discount because it incurs lower cost.
