Answer:

Total contribution =$117,600

Explanation:

<em>Whenever a company is faced with a limiting factor i.e a resource in short supply, the company should allocate the resource to the product with he highest contribution per unit of the scare resource . </em>

<em>The business outfit should rank its products using contribution per minute of constraint </em>

This is done as follows:

Product                                               Q                 P

Contribution margin                         35                40

Machine hours /unit                          7                  5

Contribution /minutes                         5                 8

Ranking for production                      2nd           1st

Note contribution per minute = contribution per unit/minutes required

<em>Allocation of machine hours</em>

All the 14,700 machine hours should be allocated to the production of product P. Doing so would produce a total maximum contribution equals to

Total contribution : machine hours ×  contribution per machine hr

Total contribution = 8× 14,700 =  117,600  

Total contribution =$117,600

The current values for BEp and margin of safety before the proposed changes are:

BEP units: 7,800

in dollars: $ 358,800

Margin of safety:

2,200 units or $ 101,200 of sales

Explanation:

The break even pont is the level of salesthat makes the operating income equal to zero. the margin of safety is the amount above this level at curernt sales.

Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin

Contribution per unit: $23

Fixed Cost $179,400

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

179,400 / 23 = 7,800

In dollars: 7,800 units x $46 each = $ 358,800

Margin of safety:

10,000 - 7,800 = 2,200

in dollars 460,000 - 358,800 = 101,200

Mason Company has a weekly payroll of $5,000. Wages are paid every Friday for the work performed Monday through Friday of that w
ddd [48]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Given:

Weekly payroll = $5,000

Number of working days for which wages are paid from Monday to Friday = 5

Wages paid per day = \frac{\textup{Weekly payroll}}{\textup{Number of days}}

or

Wages paid per day = \frac{\$\textup{5,000}}{\textup{5}}

or

Wages paid per day = $1,000

Thus,

from Monday to Tuesday total wages paid

= Wages per day × Number of days

= $1,000 × 2

= $2,000

Hence, the amount of Wages Expense that should be recorded on that date is $2,000
