Answer:

1.a- The minimum transfer price will be the marginal cost of the unit thus, the variable cost of 1.25

1.b- the maximum transfer price should be the market price as the company cannot price the units above this cost.

2.a- No as it is including a fixed cost component which is already incurred(sunk cost)

2.b- Yes I will as it is above the 1.25 variable cost which is the cost the division will face to produce the units

3.- full manufacturing cost will include the fixed cost therefore:

  1.25 variable cost

<u>+ 0.70</u> fixed cost

  1.95 manufacturing cost

Illusion [34]

Answer:

If the several companies in the tobacco industry produce similar products but have very different marginal costs: they are more likely to engage in tacit collusion than firms with similar costs.

Explanation:

Tacit collusion occurs when firms  silently agree on a strategy that will benefit them both either by cutting cost or increasing patronage.

If the several companies in the tobacco industry produce similar products but have very different marginal costs, some firms might decide to collude tacitly by lowering their prices therefore controlling a larger potion of the addressable market.

The reason this action is taken silently is because express collusion will attract legal sanctions that will be supported by firms within the industry that did not collude.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The remaining shares should be carried at its fair value.

In this case then,  the fair value of the remaining shares = $260,000*(1-0.5) = $130,000

Explanation:

According to IFRS 3(Revised), A certain group may decide to sell its controlling interest in a subsidiary but retain significant influence in the form of an associate, or retain only a financial asset. If it does so, the retained interest is remeasured to fair value, and any gain or loss compared to book value is recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal of the subsidiary.
