Every country had different types of coins with different values and they were not easily comparable in value with the money from the other countries.  This could have been fixed with collaboration between neighboring countries from certain areas to create same types of coins that have the same value so that they can use them easily for the trade that was occurring between the different economies.

Every craftsmen that had the skills and tools and suitable material was able to create copies of the money. This could have been fixed with strict regulations on every craftsmen by the authorities. Also putting a unique mark on the different types of coins by the official producers that was not easy to be copied.

Glascro Company manufactures skis. The management accountant wants to calculate the fixed and variable costs associated with the
omeli [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Month - Lease cost - Machine hours

April: $15,000 - 800

May: $10,000 - 600

June: $12,000 - 770

July: $16,000 - 1,000

Using the high-low method, first, we need to determine the unitary variable cost. We need to use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (16,000 - 10,000) / (1,000 - 600)

Variable cost per unit= $15 per unit

Now, we can calculate the fixed costs:

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 16,000- (15*1,000)

Fixed costs= $1,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 10,000 - (15*600)

Fixed costs= $1,000
