<span>Setting a rent control price ceiling will cause the same impact as any other price ceiling that is below the market equilibrium price: it will create a shortage in the market. At the price equilibrium of $600, the number of renters would exactly meet the number of available 2 bedroom apartments. However, with this fixed price ceiling, the position along the demand curve will shift to one of higher demand, with no analogous change in the supply curve. Thus there will be more renters than can be supported, and renters will have to look for alternatives and substitutes.</span>
Answer:
Shellhammer Company
Ending inventory = $712
Cost of goods sold = $2,492
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Date Item Units Unit Cost Total Cost
September 1 Inventory 100 $3.34 $334.00
September 8 Purchases 450 3.50 1,575.00
September 18 Purchases 350 3.70 1,295.00
September 30 Total 900 $3,204.00
Ending inventory 200
Cost of goods sold 700
Weighted Average cost = Total cost of goods available for sale/Total units available for sale
= $3,204/900 = $3.56
Value of Ending Inventory = $3.56 * 200 = $712
Value of Cost of goods sold = $3.56 * 700 = $2,492
b) The weighted average inventory costing, under the period inventory system, used by Shellhammer is an assumption that the costs attributable to ending inventory and cost of goods sold are determined from the average cost per unit and that these the average cost is ascertained at the end of the period. Therefore, the cost of beginning inventory and purchases are accumulated and divided by the units of goods available for sale.
Answer:
Correct answer is A.
<u>$14.38 per direct labor-hour</u>
Explanation:
If the budgeted direct labor time for December is 8,000 hours, then total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour is (rounded):
Total budgeted factory overhead for December= Variable Factory Overhead rate per direct labor hour * budgeted direct labor time for December + Fixed Factory Overhead per month
Total budgeted factory overhead for December = 5*8000 + 75000
Total budgeted factory overhead for December = $ 115,000
Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = Total budgeted factory overhead for December/budgeted direct labor time for December
Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = 115000/8000
Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = 14.38
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": top management's attitude toward decentralized operating structures.
Explanation:
Sales forecasts have the purpose of providing companies with an idea of how their sales environment is going to be within a specific period. By forecasting, firms obtain objective information from inside and outside the company that allows them to maximize the distribution of their resources to cover the customers' demands in the future.
Thus, <em>an executive's attitude over decentralized operating structures is not relevant for sales forecasting.</em>
