Answer:

Variable Expense - Cost driver

Machine setup cost - Number of Setups

Machine running cost - Machine hours used

Ordering Cost - No of orders placed

Labor Cost - Labor hours worked

Raw Material - Material usage rate

Transportation Cost - No of Orders delivered.

Explanation:

An organizational structure in one in which certain activities are aligned to achieve the ultimate goal of the organization. Similar types of set of machines together to get particular output product. The cost drivers in organizational structure can influence the output of a company.To determine the product cost per unit using the absorption costing we find the per unit rate for Variable Overheads for the activity by diving the total variable cost by its cost driver.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432

Explanation:

In order to calculate the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually we would have to calculate the following formula:

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs= P(i(1+i)∧n/(1+i)∧n-1

The rate of interest i would be as follows:

rate of interest i=(1+10%/2)-1

rate of interest i=0.1025*100

rate of interest i=10.25%

The present value P would be calculated as follows:

present value P=$125,000(1-(1+1/100)∧5 (1+10.25/100)∧-5/(10.25/100-1/100)

present value P=$125,000*3.84

present value P=$480,000

Therefore,

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*(10.25/100 (1+10.25/100)∧5/(1+10.25/100)∧5-1)

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*0.2654

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$127,432

The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432

Beball camp example covered in the class, let's assume the segment size is 9000, price per participant is $90, frequency is 1, v
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is D. About 1.37%</u>

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Segment size = 9,000

Number of participants in the camp = x

Total Fixed Cost (TFC) = $ 9,000  

Variable Cost per Person = $ 5  

Price per Person = $ 90

Profit = $ 1,500

2. Based on the assumption provided above, what percentage of the segment should participate if the program wants to make $1500 profit?

We can calculate the variable cost, this way:

Total Variable Cost = Variable cost per person * Number of participants

Total Variable Cost = $ 5 * x

Total Variable Cost = $ 5x

We can calculate the total cost of the program, this way:

Total Cost of the program = Total Variable cost + Total Fixed Cost  

Total Cost of the program = $ 5x+ $ 9,000

Total cost of the program = $ 9,000 + 5x

We can calculate the revenue of the program, this way:

Total revenue of the program = Price per person * Number of participants + Profit

Total revenue of the program = $ 90 * x + $ 1,500

Total revenue of the program = $ 90x + $ 1,500

For Break-even:

Total Variable cost + Total Fixed Cost = Price per person * Number of participants

Replacing with the values we know and solving for x:

9,000 + 5x =  90x

5x - 90x = - 9,000  (Like terms)

-85x = -9,000

x =  -9,000/-85

x = 106 (rounding to the next whole)

For $ 1,500 of profits:

Number of participants at break-even + Profits/Price per participant

106 + 1,500/90 = 106 + 16.7 = 123

123/1,500 = 0.0137 = 1.37% (Rounding to two decimal places)

<u>The correct answer is D. About 1.37%</u>

Company's comparative balance sheet E(Click the icon to view the comparative balance sheet.) t January 31, 2019, and 2018, repor
frozen [14]

Answer:

Bosley Company

Calculation of Net Income or Net Loss during the year ended January 31, 2019, under three independent situations:

Situation 1. Bosley issued $5 million of stock and declared no dividends.  

Net Loss = stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 plus new issue of stock less stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019

= $51 + 5 - 31 = $25 million

Situation 2. Bosley issued no stock but declared dividends of $8 million.

Net loss = stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 less (dividends + stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019)

= $51 - (8 + 31) = $12 million

Situation 3. Bosley issued $10 million of stock and declared dividends of $50 million :

Net income = (stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019 plus dividends) minus (stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 plus Issuance of stock)

= ($31 + 50) - ($51 + 10) = $20 million

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                         2018    2019

Total assets                         74       48  

Total liabilities                     23       17  

Total stockholders' equity  51       31

Stockholders' equity according to the accounting equation = Assets minus Liabilities for each year.

b) Situation 1. Bosley issued $5 million of stock and declared no dividends.  

                                                                       ($' million)

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018   51

Add: Issuance of stock                                       5

Net income                                                           0

Less: Dividends declared                                   0

Net loss                                                            (25 )

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019   31

Net Loss = stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 plus new issue of stock less stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019

= $51 + 5 - 31 = $25 million

c) Situation 2. Bosley issued no stock but declared dividends of $8 million.  

                                                                       ($' million)

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018   51

Add: Issuance of stock                                       0

Net income                                                          0

Less: Dividends declared                                 (8 )

Net loss                                                             (12 )

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019  31

Net loss = stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 less (dividends + stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019)

= $51 - (8 + 31) = $12 million

d) Situation 3. Bosley issued $10 million of stock and declared dividends of $50 million

                                                                    ($' million)

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018  51

Add: Issuance of stock                                     10

Net income                                                       20

Less: Dividends declared                               (50 )

Net loss                                                              0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019 31

Net income = (stockholders' equity, January 31, 2019 plus dividends) minus (stockholders' equity, January 31, 2018 plus Issuance of stock)

= ($31 + 50) - ($51 + 10) = $20 million

In the travlos (1999) study, more practice led to poorer retention and transfer test performance than less practice. a possible
kirill [66]
There are many variables that affect both retention of skill and the ability to transfer it; such variables are the frequency of practice blocks, amount of practice, homogeneity of tasks etc. It is important to distinguish between ability to perform and ability to teach. While ability to perform goes up, it is probably that at some point, certain parts of the motor skill become automated; the recnstruction process is not needed anymore and the reflex is automatic. Due to this, an individual might have high ability to perform, while low ability to teach. When there are only a few repetitions, automations have not set in yet and the experimental subject is conscious of the whole process; he has to mentally reconstruct it and thus it is easier for him to transfer his knowledge to another.
