Opportunity costs are not found in accounting records because they are not relevant to decisions.

Sergio [31]

The following statement "Opportunity costs are not found in accounting records because they are not relevant to decisions" is false.

The opportunity cost is the time spent learning and the money that might have been used for something else. When a farmer decides to grow wheat, there is an opportunity cost associated with not doing so or using the resources in another way (land and farm equipment).

The apparent advantage of not selecting the next best alternative when resources are limited is what is commonly referred to as opportunity cost. Opportunity costs are not just monetary or financial expenses. An opportunity cost is also the real price of missed productivity, time, or any other for-profit gain.

swat32

Answer:

The correct answer is (d)

Explanation:

Better quality can help to reduce many costs such as customer’s dissatisfaction cost, inspection cost and warrant and service cost. When customers don't like the quality of the product they are likely to buy the same product from somewhere else that is the dissatisfaction cost. Still, maintenance cost is likely to incur no matter how good the quality is. Maintenance cost helps to keep the product clean and fresh for long-term use.

Identify the correct pricing strategy. Incorporating _______ pricing strategy drives customers to pay a higher price for a valua

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Premium, value

Explanation:

Premium Pricing Strategy: this a strategy used by companies to drive up the prices for their products. This strategy is used when customers can be convinced that a company will offer a higher value than its competitors.

For example, looking at the prices of a Rolls Royce Phantom and a Toyota, one costs $450,000 and the other costs $25,000, both will take you from your office to your house, but some customers will prefer to buy the Rolls Royce, this is because of the value the Rolls Royce offers.

Value: this is the worth or usefulness of something. Therefore, if a company can offer value for money, customers will be willing to pay.

Year 1 Year 2 Amounts billed to clients for services rendered $ 182,000 $ 232,000 Cash collected from clients 154,000 184,000 Ca

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Year 1:

Cash collected from clients $154,000

Salaries paid to employees for services rendered during the year $27,000

Utilities $84,000

Purchase of insurance policy $58,200

So, in order to find net cash flow, $(154000-27000-84000-58200)=-15200

Year 2:

Cash collected from clients $184,000

Salaries paid 34000

Utilities paid 94000

Insurance paid is 0

So, net cash flow $184000-$(34000+94000)=$56000

Year1 paid 27000 in salaries, accrued =32000

So still 5000 has to be paid in year 2

Year 2 paid 34000 ⇒ so accrued is 29000

Insurance accrued for each year is 58200/3=19400

Income statement for year 1 and 2

year1 year2

Revenue:

Income from services 182000 232000

Expense

Salary 84000 94000

Insurance 19400 19400
