Answer:
The overhead cost allocated to Totes is $11556 and option c is the correct answer
Explanation:
To allocate the overheads between products using a plant wide rate, we need to calculate the plant wide Overhead absorption rate (OAR). The OAR allocates overheads to each product based on the activity level consumed by each product.
OAR = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Absorption base
As the overhead absorption base is the direct labor cost, we first need to determine the total direct labor cost for both the products.
Direct labor cost = 64 * 350 + 51 * 530 = $49430
OAR = 25500 / 49430 = $0.5159 per direct labor cost of $1
Direct labor cost used by Totes = 64 * 350 = $22400
Overheads to be allocated to Totes = 22400 * 0.5159 = $11556.16 rounded off to $11556
Answer:
the journal entry to record this sale should be:
Dr Accounts receivable X
Dr Credit card fees Y
Cr Sales revenue X+Y
Explanation:
The journal entry to record sales using credit cards issued by banks, e.g. VISA, MasterCard, etc., which pay immediately or almost immediately (the same day or the following day) and manage the payments through the company's bank account:
Dr Cash X
Dr Credit card fees Y
Cr Sales revenue X+Y
Since credit cards not issued by banks (e.g. many American Express cards are issued by American Express itself not by banks) do not pay immediately, a company must record an account receivable, it cannot record cash. In order to collect the payment, the company must submit the credit card receipt to the credit card company and then wait for it to be processed and paid. This may take a few days or even a couple of weeks.
Answer:
B) As long as the Fed's announcement is credible, workers and firms will reduce their consumption and investment spending, which will reduce aggregate demand and reduce inflation.
Explanation:
If the FED announces that it will increase the federal funds rate, it will increase the interest that banks charge other banks for lending them money in order to comply with the reserve ratio. This increase would make banks hand out less loans and be more careful in order to reduce their need for overnight funds.
If banks reduce their loans, their capacity for creating money will also be reduced, lowering the consumption level and investment spending of both workers (households) and private firms.
