Materials costs of $600,000 and conversion costs of $642,600 were charged to a processing department in the month of September.
inn [45]

Answer:Manufacturing costs assigned to completed units  = $1143192

Explanation:

Material Costs = $600 000 (added at the beginning)

Conversion costs = $642600 incurred uniformly through out the process

Units Started = 100 000

Units on hand = 8000 units 40% complete

Units completed = 100 000 - 8000 = 92000 units

Percentage of units completed = 92000/100 000 = 92%

Material costs = $600 000 x 92% = $552000

Conversion Costs = $642 600 x 92% =$591192

Manufacturing costs assigned to completed  = $552000 + $591192

Manufacturing costs assigned to completed units = $1143192

Mike and Sandy are two woodworkers who both make tables and chairs. In one month, Mike can make 4 tables or 20 chairs, where San
zzz [600]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Mike can make 4 tables or 20 chairs:

Opportunity cost of producing 1 chair = 4 ÷ 20

                                                              = 0.2

Sandy can make 6 tables or 18 chairs:

Opportunity cost of producing 1 chair = 6 ÷ 18

                                                              = 0.33

Therefore,

Mike has the comparative advantage in producing chair because he has the lower opportunity cost as compared to Sandy.
