Answer:

D. 25,000

Explanation:

Initially, with an investment of $8,000, the business was able to produce 10,000 units of products.

Changes were made and productivity increased by 25%.

25% of 10,000 = 25/100 x 10,000 = 2,500 units

Which means with an investment of $8,000, 12,500 units of products can now be produced.

<u>Now, the business doubled its investment. This means that the units of products produced will also doubled:</u>

12,500 x 2 = 25,000 units.

<em>Hence, the correct option is </em><em>D.</em>

given data

total cost = $9,000

consists = 600 units

overhead apply = $3,000

overhead rate = 75% of direct labor

Direct Labor = \frac{3000}{0.75}

Direct Labor = $4000

and we apply here Total Cost that is

Total Cost = direct material + overhead  + Direct Labor   ..........1

put here value

$9,000  = direct material + $3,000 + $4,000

solve it we get

direct material = $2,000

A company currently makes a component used in production. The per unit costs incurred to make the component include: Direct mate
elixir [45]

Answer:

The company should make the components because incremental costs are $2 less than the purchase price

Explanation:

The cost of making each unit of component = Direct Labour + Direct Material + Variable Overhead*

*The overhead cost of $4 contains both a fixed and variable element. It has been mentioned that 25% of overhead cost is incremental i.e. it increases with each additional unit produced (marginal cost). The incremental cost is the variable element.

Variable element = $4 x 25% = $1

Fixed element = $4 x 75% = $3

Thus, the cost of making each unit of component = $5 + $2 + $1 = $8,

whereas the cost of purchasing each unit of complement is $10. Hence, the company should produce the component as it is less by $2 ($10 - $8) to produce than it is to purchase.

Arada [10]

Answer:

Lower.

Explanation:

The capitalization rate is mainly used in real estate and is a measure of the rate of return on a property, based on the net operating income it is expected to generate.

Johnson in appraising two parcels of property, leased one to the government for use as a post office while the other parcel of property, is leased to a private owner for use as a hardware store. Having the knowledge that the parcels have recently started long-term leases. The capitalization rate of the post office property used by the government as compared to the capitalization rate of the hardware store property used by the private owner will be lower.

The capitalization rate of the post office property would be lower because, real-estate investors will not expect much returns on the investment as it's a less risky investment. The post office is less likely than a hardware store to run out of business or go bankrupt by virtue of being a governmental agency or public company.

Hence, the hardware store will need a higher capitalization rate in comparison with post office property.
