Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs

Step 2

An error in the ending inventory balance in Year 1 will also affect: (You may select more than one answer.)

Virty [35]

Answer:

A) Year 1 cost of goods sold

B) Year 2 cost of goods sold

D) Year 2 beginning inventory

Explanation:

A) Year 1 expense of merchandise sold : The Current year cost of Goods Sold is processed by deducting finishing stock from Opening Inventory and Purchases made during the year. So in the event that the completion stock isn't right, at that point the result of above calculation will not be right so the Year 1 expense of merchandise sold for example (Current year cost of Goods Sold) will be inaccurate.

D) Year 2 starting stock: year 2 starting stock is equivalent to year 1 completion stock. So on the off chance that off-base stock estimation is made at end of earlier year, at that point current year opening worth will be carried on as off-base.

B) Year 2 expense of merchandise sold: The explanation is same as ans q(i.e. Year 1 expense of merchandise sold) as off-base convey forward opening stock worth will bring about wrong calculation of cost of products sold for year 2.

Answer:

Gross Profit = $304,050

Operating expenses = $162,050

Explanation:

The computation of gross profit and operating expenses is shown below:-

Net purchases = Purchase - Purchase discounts - Purchase returns and allowances

= $505,500 - $7,250 - $3,500

= $494,750

Cost of goods sold = Net purchases + Freight-in + Inventory + Ending inventory

= $494,750 + $4,100 + $56,000 - $66,000

= $488,850

Gross profit = Net sales - Cost of goods sold

= ($810,000 - $5,100 - $12,000) - $488,850

= $304,050

Operating expenses = Gross profit - Net income

= $304,050 - $142,000

= $162,050

Suppose the price of Twinkies is reduced from $1.45 to $1.25 and, as a result, the quantity of Twinkies demanded increases from

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand for Twinkies in the given price range is 0.641.

Explanation:

The price of Twinkies is reduced from $1.45 to $1.25.

The quantity of Twinkies demanded increases from 2,000 to 2,200.

Price elasticity of demand for Twinkies

= $\frac{\frac{Q2 - Q1}{\frac{Q2 + Q1}{2} } }{\frac{P2 - P1}{\frac{P2 + P1}{2} } }$

= $\frac{\frac{2,200 - 2,000}{\frac{2,200 + 2,000}{2} } }{\frac{\$ 1.25 - \$ 1.45}{\frac{\$ 1.25 + \$ 1.45}{2} } }$

= $\frac{\frac{200}{\frac{4,200}{2} } }{\frac{\$ 0.20}{\frac{\$ 2.70}{2} } }$

= $\frac{\frac{200}{2100} }{\frac{\$ 0.20 }{\$ 1.35} }$

= $\frac{0.095}{0.148}$

= 0.641
