Answer: $112000
Explanation:
First, we calculate the book value in year 7 which will be:
= Depreciation × Balance life
= $400,000 × 3/10
= $120,000
Then, the cash flow as a result of the transaction will be:
= Asset sale - (Asset - Book value) × Tax rate
= 110000 - [(110000 - 120000) × 20%]
= 110000 - (-2000)
= 110000 + 2000
= 112000
Answer:
Play miniature golf instead of renting the movie.
Explanation: Marginal utility is the added satisfaction derived from spending an extra unit of money.
Now we can see that the consumer values time at $12 per hour, and they'll spend a total of $24 on watching the DVD because this will take 2 hours, the consumer will also spend just $12 on miniature golf because this takes just one hour.
Now factoring the costs of the DVD and the miniature golf into the equation, we have:
Total cost of renting and watching the DVD:
$4 + $24 = $28
Total cost of playing miniature golf:
$13 + $12 = $25
We can see that the consumer will spend less in playing miniature, while getting the same marginal utility with the other option.
Answer:
April ending inventory cost= $121,875
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Unit production cost Absorption cost Variable cost
Direct material $15 $15
Direct labor 10 10
Variable factory overhead 7.5 7.5
Fixed factory overhead 5
Total cost $37.5 $32.5
Finished goods inventory = 12,500 - 8,750 = 3,750
Finished goods inventory cost using absorption costing = 3,750 × $37.50
= $140,625
Finished goods inventory cost using variable costing = 3,750 × $32.50
= $121,875
