Micro Enterprises has the capacity to produce 10,000 widgets a month, and currently makes and sells 9,000 widgets a month. Widge
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The order for 1,500 at $4 should be rejected. It will imply omre work for no extra income.

Explanation:

First, we need to check for the cost structure of Micro Enterprises

9,000 x $5 average cost = 45,000 total cost

total cost = fixed cost + variable cost

45,000 = 18,000 + 9,000 x variable cost per unit

(45,000  - 18,000) / 9,000 = variable per unit

variable per unit = 3

Now we calculate the the special order

<em>sales revenue for the proposed deal:</em>  1,500 x 4 = 6,000

<em>variable cost for the widget:</em>                 1,500 x 3 = (4,500)

<u>opportunity cost:</u>

we resing the contribution for 500 units in the local marke

this units selling price is $6 and their cost is the same $3

                   500 x (6  -  3 )  =                                     (1,500)

                             net differencial analysis                      0

It should be rejected. as it would not modify the net income

<u></u>

<u>We could prove this by building the incomefor each scenario</u>

<u></u>

<u>if not accepted:</u>

9000 x ( 6 - 3 ) -18,000= 9,000

<u>if accepted:</u>

8500 x (6-3) + 1,500 x (4-3) - 18,000 = 9,000

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

$420,000

Explanation:

Calculation for Orleans’s net U.S. tax liability

Using this formula

Tax liability=Taxable income×U.S tax rate

Let plug in the formula

Tax liability=$2,000,000×21%

Tax liability=$420,000

Therefore Orleans’s net U.S. tax will be $420,000. The withholding tax amount of $8,000 was not included because it was already imposed on the dividend.

A manufacturing company has the following budgeted overhead costs: Indirect materials: $0.50 per unit; Utilities: $0.25 per unit
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Total overhead                       $

Indirect material ($0.5 x 200,000 units) = 100,000

Utilities ($0.25 x 200,000 units)             = 50,000

Supervisory salaries                                 = 60,000

Building rent                                              = 80,000

Total overhead                                             290,000

Overhead rate                = <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

                                           Budgeted direct labour hours

                                         = <u>$290,000</u>

                                              100,000 hours

                                         = $2.90 per direct labour hour

Explanation:

In this case, we need to obtain the total overhead, which is the total of indirect material, utilities, supervisory salaries and building rent.

Then, we will divide the total overhead by direct labour hours so as to determine the overhead rate.
