Answer:

D) 5182 glass vases

Explanation:

<em>Contribution per glass vases:</em>

$4.5 selling price - $ 1.75 variable cost= 2.75

<em>Operating income:</em>

29,000 units x $ 2.75 - $ 8,500 = $71,250 operating income

<em>Target income is to obtain a 20% increase:</em>

71,250 x (1 + 20%) = 85,500 target income:

<em>units needed for target income:</em>

(85,500 target income + 8,500 fixed cost) / 2.75 contribution per unit= 34.181,81

aditional glass vases needed for target income:

34,182 - 29,000 = 5,182

uysha [10]

Answer:

By producing the starters the company will save $20,000 per year.

Explanation:

                       production costs

direct materials                                      $3.10 per unit

direct labor                                             $2.70 per unit

supervision                                            $60,000

depreciation                                          $40,000

variable manufacturing overhead        $0.60 per unit

rent                                                         $12,000

total production cost                             $9.20 per unit

The engineer is wrong because he is considering fixed costs like depreciation and rent that should not be included because they are independent on whether this project is approved or not. Once you take away depreciation and rent, the cost per unit will fall by $1.30 [= ($40,000 + $12,000) / 40,000 units].

Since the production cost = $9.20 - $1.30 = $7.90, which is lower than $8.40 which is the purchase cost, the company should start producing the starters at least until its sales bonce back.

By producing the starters the company will save ($8.40 - $7.90) x 40,000 units = $20,000 per year

Lemming makes an $18,750, 120-day, 8% cash loan to Notions Co. on November 1. Lemming's end-of-period adjusting entry on Decembe
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Interest Receivable (Dr.)           $250

            Interest Revenue (Cr.)                $250

Explanation:

Notions Co. has borrowed money from Lemming and will have to pay cost for it which is a source of fund (revenue) for Lemming. According to the Accrual concept of accounting, revenue should be recognized when earned and not when cash is received.  At year end, the interest revenue of two months has been accrued, so it needs to be recognized in the Books of Lemming.

⇒ 18,750 * 8% = 1,500 p.a.

OR Interest Revenue for two months = (1,500/12) * 2 = $250.
