Fischer Company uses 12,000 units of a part in its production process. The costs to make a part are: direct material, $15; direc

Trava [24]

Answer:

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of units= 12,000

Make in-house:

Direct material, $15

direct labor, $27

variable overhead, $15

applied fixed overhead, $32

Buy:

Buying price= $60

If Fischer buys the part, 75 percent of the applied fixed overhead would continue.

First, we will calculate the avoidable fixed overhead per unit:

Avoidable fixed overhead= 32*0.25= $8

Now, the total differential cost of making in-house:

Total cost of production= 12,000*(15 + 27 + 15 + 8)

Total cost of production= 12,000*65

Total cost of production= $780,000

Total cost of buying= 60*12,000= $720,000

Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

A company reports the amounts below in its financial statements. Net cash flow from operating activities $37,570 Total net cash

balandron [24]

Answer:

Ratio will be 0.92

So option (A) will be the correct option

Explanation:

We have given net cash flow from operating activities = $37570

So net operating cash flow = $37570

Current liabilities at the bugging of the year = $38400

Current liabilities at the end of the year = $43200

So average current liabilities $=\frac{38400+43200}{2}=$40800$

We have to find the ratio of operating cash flow to current liabilities

So ratio will be $=\frac{37570}{40800}=0.92$

So option (A) will be the correct option

A product sells for $250 per unit, and its variable costs per unit are $181. The fixed costs are $430,000. If the firm wants to

brilliants [131]

Answer:

$6600

Explanation:

Given: Selling price= $250 per unit

Variable cost= $181 per unit.

Fixed cost= $430000.

Expected Profit= $25400.

Let´s assume the number of units sold be "x".

Revenue (R) = $250\times x= \$250x$

Cost of product (C)= $\$ 181\times x+ \$ 430000$

∴ Cost of product (C)= $\$ 181x+ \$ 430000$

Now, finding the number of unit sold.

Forming an equation for profit.

We know, Profit= $Revenue-cost$

⇒ $\$ 25400= 250x- (181x+430000)$

Opening parenthesis.

⇒ $25400= 250x- 181x- 430000$

⇒ $25400= 69x- 430000$

Adding both side by 430000

⇒ $455400= 69x$

Dividing both side by 69

⇒ $x= \frac{455400}{69}$

∴ $x= 6600 units$

Hence, total number of units sold to earn $25400 is 6600 units.
