Answer:

$4,870.5

Explanation:

Annual Depreciation Expense:

= [(Cost - Salvage Value) × Machine Usage in 2020] ÷ Total Estimated Working Hours

Depreciation Expense for 2020 (for 3 months only - October to December):

= [($115,900 - $13,900) × 1,910] ÷ (10,000) × (3/12)

= ($102,000 × 1,910) ÷ (10,000) × (1/4)

= $19,482 × (1/4)

= $4,870.5

Notes:

Depreciation will be calculated for only 3 months since the asset has been acquired on 1st October 2020.

A customer, who needs to drive to work in a Wisconsin winter, has a critical need to use the product Ice Melt. For him as a cons
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Urgency / Postponement leads to customer inelastic demand of ice melt.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is responsive change in demand of good, due to change in price. Formula = % change in demand / % change in price

Factors Affecting Price Elasticity of Demand : Nature of commodity, Income, substitutes availability, time period, urgency / postponement, share in total expenditure,

Inelastic Demand is when demand responds proportionately less to price change. % change in demand < % change in price

Case 'Customer critically needs ice melt to drive to work' : This has inelastic demand i.e demand less respondent to price changes (he will buy that at high price too). Such because of the urgency of this demand & less scope of its postponement.

Pirate Seafood Company purchases lobsters and processes them into tails and flakes. It sells the lobster tails for $20.30 per po
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Pirate Seafood Company

1) Calculation of the Allocated Cost of Sold Items:

a) Production Units:

Lobster tails = 3,200/100 * 58 = 1,856 units

Lobster flakes = 3,200/100 * 26 = 832 units

Total units = 2,688 units, costing $12,800

b) Material costs:

Lobster tails = 1,856/2,688 * $12,800 = $8,838

Lobster flakes = 832/2,688 * $12,800 = $3,962

c) Labor costs:

Lobster tails = 1,856/2,688 * $7,400 = $5,110

Lobster flakes = 832/2,688 * $7,400 = $2,290

d) Total Production costs (Materials & Labor):

i) Lobster tails = $8,838 + $5,110 = $13,948

per unit cost = $13,948/1,856 = $7.52

ii) Lobster flakes = $3,962 + $2,290 = $$6,252

per unit cost = $6,252/832 = $7.51

e) Cost of Sales:

Lobster tails = $7.52 x 1,722 = $12,949.44

Lobster flakes = $7.51 x 752 = $5,647.52

2) Calculation of the Allocated Cost of Ending Inventory:

a) Ending Inventory units:

Lobster tails = Production unit Minus Sales unit = 1,856 - 1,722 = 134

Lobster flakes = Production unit Minus Sales unit = 832 - 752 = 80

b) Ending Inventory costs:

Lobster tails = 134 x $7.52 = $ 1,007.68

Lobster flakes = 80 x $7.51 = $600.80

Explanation:

To calculate the costs of sales and the costs of ending inventory, the first step is to calculate the units produced.  The material and labour costs are then apportioned based on the units produced since no costs are allocated to the waste.

Then, the unit costs of tails and flakes are calculated.  These form the bases for computing the cost of items sold and the ending inventory.

Annual maintenance costs for a particular section of highway pavement are $2500. The placement of a new surface would reduce the
rewona [7]

Answer:

The maximum investment is $6,360.111

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The placement of a new surface would reduce the annual maintenance cost to $500 per year for the first 3 years and to $1000 per year for the next 7 years. After 10 years the annual maintenance would again be $2500.

We need to find the net present value. The maximum initial investment will be the amount that makes the NPV cero.

NPV=∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

Cf= cash flow

<u>For example:</u>

Year 1= 500/1.05= 476.19

Year 3= 500/1.05^3= 431.92

Year 5= 1,000/1.05^5= 783.53

NPV= 6,360.111

The maximum investment is $6,360.111
