Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": predatory pricing.

Explanation:

Predatory pricing is the illegal practice of setting prices below competitors to wipe them out of the market. When the prices decline the situation could be favorable for consumers but after the competition is eliminated the predatory-pricing company is likely to raise the prices. Under that scenario, customers are at a disadvantage because they do not have many options from where to choose.

In the U.S., the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is the body in charge of analyzing predatory pricing practices.

Answer:

Since elasticity is 6.4, a positive figure,it is normal good and the fact that it is greater than one means it is elastic,hence option A is correct

Explanation:

The formula for income elasticity of demand is given as:

/(new quantity-old quantity)//(old price+new price)/2)/(New income-Old income)/(old income+new income)/2)

New income=$33,000

Old income=$31,900

New quantity =5 times

Old quantity=3 times

Hence=(5-3)/(3+5)/2)/(33500-31900)/(31900+33500)/2)

Elasticity=6.45

Southern Rim Parts estimates its manufacturing overhead to be $396,000 and its direct labor costs to be $990,000 for year 1. The
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Southern Rim Parts

Journal Entry:

Account Title                        Debit           Credit

Work-in-process inventory  $9,760

Finished goods inventory   24,400

Cost of goods sold              63,440

Manufacturing overhead                      $97,600

To record the prorated under-applied overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated manufacturing overhead = $396,000

Estimated direct labor costs = $990,000

Actual manufacturing overhead = $434,000

Actual direct labor costs =  $841,000

Predetermined overhead rate = estimated overhead/estimated direct labor costs = $396,000/$990,000 = $0.40 per DL

Applied overhead:

Work-in-process inventory $ 33,640

Finished goods inventory 84,100

Cost of goods sold 218,660

Total overhead applied = $336,400

Underapplied overhead = $97,600 ($434,000 - $336,400)

Prorating the underapplied overhead to:

Work-in-process inventory $33,640/$336,400 * $97,600 = $9,760

Finished goods inventory 84,100/$336,400 * $97,600 = $24,400

Cost of goods sold 218,660/$336,400 * $97,600 = $63,440

Total underapplied overhead = $97,600

romanna [79]

Explanation:

Beginning cash balance + Budgeted receipts - Budgeted disbursements + excess/deficiency = desired ending balance

$18,000 + $175,000 - $174,000 + $X = $49,000

$19,000 + $X                                       = $49,000

$X                                                         = $49,000 - $19,000

$X                                                         = $30,000
