2 answers:

7 0

A) there are no close substitutes

Explanation:

A monopoly results when there is a single provider of a particular good or service. Since they’re the only company providing that good or service, the consumer must conduct their business with that specific provider. For example, imagine that Walmart is the only store you can buy food from. Walmart would dominate the entire supply market as it would be the only store from which you can buy your food.

Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $285,600

variable manufacturing overhead= $2.70 per machine-hour

Estimated machine-hours= 42,000

Job A496:

Number of units in the job 20

Total machine-hours 80

Direct materials $910

Direct labor cost $1,820

First, we need to allocate overhead to Job A496:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (285,600/42,000) + 2.7

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $9.5 per machine hour

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 9.5*80= $760

Now, we can calculate the total cost:

Total cost= 910 + 1,820 + 760

Total cost= $3,490

Finally, we determine the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 3,490/20= $174.5

Calculating amortization expense for one year:

Amortization expense= $\frac{Purchase\ Price+Legal\ Fees}{Useful\ Life}$

$Amortization\ expense=\frac{\$38,500+\$2000}{6}\\ Amortization\ expense=\$6,750$

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

a. AB and YX are both general partners.

AB's basis in the partnership's interests = $527,000 + ($263,500/2) = $658,750

YZ's basis in the partnership's interests = $457,000 + ($263,500/2) = $588,750

Each partner share 50% interest in the recourse debt.

b. AB is a general partner, and YZ is a limited partner.

AB's basis in the partnership's interests = $527,000 + $263,500 = $790,500

YZ's basis in the partnership's interests = $457,000

Only AB has a share in the recourse debt, since YZ is a limited partner it has no recourse debt share.
