Direct Materials costs $5,175

Direct Labor costs $3,174

Manufacturing overhead $3,351

To record costs of materials, labor and overhead.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations for March:

Direct Direct Manufacturing Total Costs

Materials Labor O/h Allocated

Beginning inventory $350 $245 $200 $795

Costs added during

March 4,940 3,000 3,225 11,165

Total costs $5,290 $3,245 $3,425 $11,960

Total units = 5,000 ( Beginning = 300, March started = 4,200 and Ending = 500 units)

Beginning inventory of 300 and started and completed, 4,200 were 100% complete = 4,500

Ending inventory of 500 were 20% complete = 100 units.

b) Calculation of Equivalent units:

Direct Direct Manufacturing Total Costs

Materials Labor O/h Allocated

Units completed 4,600 4,600 4,600 4,600

Ending inventory 100 100 100 100

Production for March 4,500 4,500 4,500 4,500

Unit cost per

equivalent unit $1.15 $0.71 $0.74 $2.60

Cost of Ending WIP $115 $71 $74 $260

Cost of production $5,175 $3,174 $3,351 $11,700

b) Equivalent units are the units under production multiplied by their percentage of completion. Usually, completed units have 100% completion, while work in process do not have 100% completion with respect to conversion costs, especially. The purpose of calculating equivalent units is to determine accurate costs of units completed.

c) The weighted-average method in allocating production costs means that the beginning inventory, units started and completed in the period, and the equivalent units of ending inventory are added. Then the costs of materials, labor, and overhead are allocated based on the average costs.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The sales tax is regressive with respect to income

Explanation:

sales tax by Jennifer = 0.1*30000

= 3000

tax/income = 3000/50000

= 6%

sales tax by steve = 0.1*27000

= 2700

tax/income = 2700/30000

= 9%

The tax increases with decrease in income, it indeed is regressive on the whole.

Therefore, The sales tax is regressive with respect to income

Label demand as elastic, unit elastic, or inelastic for each scenario. Use the midpoint method when applicable to calculate the

Alborosie

Answer:

The demand for signature lunchbox container is inelastic. Price elasticity of demand is -1

The demand for gasoline is inelastic. Price elasticity of demand is 0.5

The demand for bus in Austin is inelastic. Price elasticity of demand is -1.38

Explanation:

Midpoint formula for price elasticity of demand = (change in quantity demanded/average quantity demanded) ÷ (change in price/average price)

Signature lunchbox container

change in quantity demanded = 15,000 - 20,000 = -5000

average quantity demanded = (20,000 + 15,000)/2 = 35,000/2 = 17,500

-5000/17,500 = -0.286

change in price = 4 - 3 = 1

average price = 4+3/2 = 7/2 = 3.5

1/3.5 = 0.286

Price elasticity of demand = -0.286/0.286 = -1. The demand is inelastic because the price elasticity of demand is less than 1

Gasoline

Price elasticity of demand is 0.5. The demand for gasoline is inelastic because the price elasticity of demand is less than 1.

Bus in Austin

change in quantity demanded = 61,000 - 70,000 = -9,000

average quantity demanded = (70,000+61,000)/2 = 65,500

-9,000/65,500 = -0.137

change in price = 2.21 - 2 = 0.21

average price = (2+2.21)/2 = 2.105

0.21/2.105 = 0.0998

Price elasticity of demand = -0.137/0.0998 = -1.38. The demand for bus in Austin is inelastic because the price elasticity of demand is less than 1

Maxwell Manufacturing makes two models of felt tip marking pens. Requirements for each lot of pens are given below. Fliptop Mode

Leto [7]

Answer:

Step 1

Let us assume that x1 amount of Fliptop and x2 amount of Tiptop models are produced, then the objective function is to maximize profitability with the constraints on the production limited by the available plastic, ink and time. Hence the LP model is given by the objective function and the three constraints as shown below:

Objective function ($) (OF): maximize z = 1000x1 + 1000x2

Plastic material constraint ( Eqn. 1): 3x1 + 4x2 <= 36

Ink material constraint (Eqn. 2): 5x1 + 4x2 <= 40

Time constraint (Eqn. 3): 5x1 + 2x2 <= 30

Non negativity constraints: x1, x2 >= 0

Step 2

Since it is a 2 variable problem it can be solved graphically or using a model solver such as MS-Excel ®. The feasible region is defined by the corner points (boundary points) A, B, C, D, E and the boundary lines of the constraint equations 1,2,3 and the objective function OF as shown in the diagram.

The coordinates and the OF values at the corner points are given below:

A (0,0); OF = 0 (intersection of non-negativity constraints)

B (6,0); OF = 6000 (intersection of x2=0 and eqn 3)

C (4,5); OF = 9000 (intersection of eqn 2 and 3)

D (2, 7.5); OF = 9500 (intersection of eqn 1 & 2)

E (0,9); OF= 9000 (intersection of x1=0 and eqn 1)

Step 3

Hence the optimal solution is given by the point D where the OF equation touches the feasible region with the maximum value. There is an excess of 5 units of molding time available.

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

$5,000 increase

Explanation:

As Martha has the main home in Houston and in the current year she rented it for only 10 days, this means that house is rented for less than 14 days and will be still treated as her personal residence, therefore, no deduction will be available for Martha against her rental income. Martha's Adjusted gross income will be increased by an amount of $5,000.
