Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

There are three types of price discrimination:

(i) First degree price discrimination or Perfect price discrimination

(ii) Second degree price discrimination

(iii) Third degree price discrimination

Perfect price discrimination refers to a situation in which the selling price of the product is equal to the price that a consumer willingness to pay for the product. This is a situation in which there is no consumer surplus.

Consumer surplus = Actual price paid by the consumer - Willingness to pay for the product

<em>Being Units transferred to Finished Goods</em>

Explanation:

<u>Calculation of Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs</u>

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 100%)                                         5,200

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%)                         15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials     30,500

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 30%)                                            1,560

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%)                         15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Conversion Cost 16,860

<u>Calculation of Cost per Equivalent unit of production  in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs</u>

Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent units

1. Materials

Unit Cost =  $4,305 ÷ 30,500

                = $0.14

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost =  ($3,320 + $1,738) ÷ 16,860

                = $0.30

3. Total unit cost

Total unit cost = Material Cost + Conversion Cost

                        = $0.14 + $0.30

                        = $0.44

<u>Calculation of costs assigned to (a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods and (b) units still in process at June 30.</u>

(a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods

Total Cost = units completed and transferred out × total unit cost

                 = 15,300 × $0.44

                 = $6,732

(b) units still in process at June 30.

Total Cost = Materials Cost + Conversion Cost

                 = $0.14 × 5,200 + $0.30 × 1,560

                 = $1,196

Pabon Corporation makes one product. Budgeted unit sales for August and September are 11,100 and 12,600 units, respectively. The
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

$555,750

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the units produced in the month of August.

We know that the opening inventory of finished goods is equal to 40% of that month's sale.

  • The Opening inventory of August will be: 11100 * 0.4 = 4440
  • Units produced in august relating to August sales will be 11100 - 4440 = 6660
  • Units produced in August relating to September's sales will be 12600 * 0.4 = 5040
  • Total units produced in August = 6660 + 5040 = 11700 units
  • labour hours required for August = 11700 * 2.5 = 29250 direct labor hours
  • So, Direct labor Cost = 29250 * 19 = 555750

When the supply of bubble gum increases while the demand for bubble gum decreases, the equilibrium ________ of bubble gum will d
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

The equilibrium price and quantity of a product are determined through the interaction of demand and supply curves of the product.  

An increase in the supply will cause the supply curve to shift to the right. While a decrease in the demand will cause the demand curve to move to the left.  

This will cause the price of the product to decline. The change in the quantity, on the other hand, depends on the magnitude of change in the demand and supply.

Interest expense:

= $15,000 x 10% x 2/12

= $15000 × 0.1 × 2/12

= $250

Supplies expense:

= $1,000 + $3,400 - $500

= $3,900
