Answer:
$1.01
Explanation:
For computing the minimum price first we need to find the following things which are shown below:
1. Variable operating cost per week.
= Variable operating costs per hour × Store hours per day × number of days
= $43 × 12 hours per day × 7 days
= $3,612
2. Now total cost per week is
Total cost per week = Variable operating costs per week + Marketing costs per week + Customer service costs per week
= $3,612 + $1,900 + $250
= $5,762
3. After calculating, the minimum price is
= Total costs per week ÷ Rental per week
where,
Total cost per week is $5,762
And, the rental per week is
= ($1,350 × 2 days) + ($600 × 5 days)
= $2,700 + $3,000
= $5,700
So, the minimum price is
= $5,762 ÷ $5,700
= $1.01

Explanation:
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a debit balance of $600 at the end of the year (before adjustment), and an analysis of accounts in the customer ledger indicates uncollectible receivables of $13,000.
1. Which of the following entries records the proper adjusting entry for bad debt expense?a. debit Bad Debt Expense, $12,400; credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, $12,400b. debit Bad Debt Expense, $13,600; credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, $13,600c. debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, $600; credit Bad Debt Expense, $600d. debit Bad Debt Expense, $600; credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, $600
Answer:
b. debit Bad Debt Expense, $13,600; credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, $13,600
Explanation:
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a contra asset account, It normally has credit balance but an adjustment may also make it's balance debit.
The uncollectible receivables of $13,000 means the there should be a credit balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at the end of the period. This account already has debit balance of $600 which is also needs to be adjusted.
Total adjustment = $13,000 + $600 = $13,600

Journalize the following transactions in the accounts of Zippy Interiors Company, a restaurant supply company that uses the allowance method of accounting for uncollectible receivables: May 24 Sold merchandise on account to Old Town Cafe $18,450. The cost of goods sold was $11,000. Sept. 30 Received $6,000 from Old Town Cafe and wrote off the remainder owed on the sale of May 24 as uncollectible. Dec. 7 Reinstated the account of Old Town Cafe that had been written off on September 30 and received $12,450 cash in full payment. For a compound transaction, if an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.
Answer:
Explanation:
Prepare the journal entry to record the sale of merchandise on account, and the cost of goods sold.
Date Particulars Debit Credit
May 24 Accounts receivable – O T Cafe $18,450
Sales $18,450
(To record sale of merchandise on account)
May 24 Cost of merchandise sold $11,000
Merchandise inventory $11,000
(To record the cost of goods sold)
Table (1)
Sale on account increases accounts receivable and sales revenue account. Hence, an increase in accounts receivable (asset account) is debited with $18,450 and an increase in sales revenue (stockholders’ equity account) is credited with $18,450.
Cost of goods sold is $11,000. Thus the expense incurred must be recognized by increasing cost of goods sold account and the merchandise inventory which is sold out should be decreased to record the inventory which is sold out. Hence, an increase in Cost of goods sold (expense account) is debited with $11,000 and a decrease in Merchandise inventory (asset account) is credited with $11,000.
2.
Prepare the journal entry to record the collection of cash and write-off of uncollectible accounts, under direct write-off method.
Date Particulars Debit Credit
September 30 Cash $6,000
Allowance for doubtful accounts $12,450
Account receivable – O T Cafe $18,450
(To record cash collection and write-off of uncollectible account receivable )
Table (2)
To record the collection of cash on account, cash account must be increased and accounts receivable must be decreased by $6,000.
To record this write-off of uncollectible receivables of $12,450 ($18,450−$6,000)($18,450−$6,000) under allowance method, both allowance for doubtful accounts and accounts receivable must be decreased by $12,450

Under its executive stock option plan, W Corporation granted options on January 1, 2021, that permit executives to purchase 28 million of the company's $1 par common shares within the next eight years, but not before December 31, 2023 (the vesting date). The exercise price is the market price of the shares on the date of grant, $19 per share. The fair value of the options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $5 per option. No forfeitures are anticipated. The options are exercised on April 2, 2024, when the market price is $22 per share. By what amount will W's shareholders equity be increased when the options are exercised
Answer:
$532 million
Explanation:
Number of common stock executives are permitted to purchase = 28 million
Exercise price = Market price of the shares on the date of grant = $19 per share
Amount of increase in W's shareholders equity = 28 million * $19 = $532 million
Therefore, W's shareholders equity will increase by $532 million when the options are exercised.
In doing aggregate planning for a firm producing paint, the aggregate planners would most likely deal with: a. Gallons, quarts, pints, and all the different sizes to be produced b. Gallons of paint, but be concerned with the different colors to be produced c. All of the different colors targeted for different markets d. Just gallons of paint, without concern for the different colors and sizes e. All the different sizes and all the different colors by size
Answer:
D. Just gallons of paint, without concern for the different colors and sizes
Explanation:
Aggregate planning is explained to be an operational activity critical to the organization as it looks to balance long-term strategic planning with short term production success.
Thus annual and quarterly plans are broken down into labor, raw material, working capital, etc. requirements over a medium-range period (6 months to 18 months). This process of working out production requirements for a medium range is called aggregate planning.
Also it is noted that a complete information is required about available production facility and raw materials.
A solid demand forecast covering the medium-range period.
Omicron Technologies has $50 million in excess cash and no debt. The firm expects to generate additional free cash flows of $40 million per year in subsequent years and will pay out these future free cash flows as regular dividends. Omicron’s unlevered cost of capital is 10% and there are 10 million shares outstanding. Omicron’s board is meeting to decide whether to pay out its $50 million in excess cash as a special dividend or to use it to repurchase shares of the firm’s stock. Assume that Omicron uses the entire $50 million in excess cash to pay a special dividend. Assume that you own 2,500 shares of Omicron stock. Suppose you are unhappy with Omicron’s decision and would prefer that Omicron used the excess cash to repurchase shares. The number of shares that you would have to buy in order to undo the special cash dividend that Omicron paid is closest to:
Answer:
278 Shares
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the no. of shares to be bought by using following formula:-
Unlevered cost of capital = 10% = 0.10
Value of Enterprise = Additional Free Cash Flow ÷ Unlevered Cost of Capital
= $40 million ÷ 0.10 = $4 million
Market Value of Shares = Value of Enterprise + Excess Cash
= $400 million + $50 million = $450 million
Per Share Market Value = Market Value of Shares ÷ Share Outstanding
= $450 million ÷ $10 million shares = $45 per share
Per Share Special Dividend = Excess Cash ÷ Share Outstanding
= $50 million ÷ $10 million shares = $5 per share
Dividend Per Share = Own Shares × Per Share Special Dividend
= 2500 shares × $5 per share = $12,500
No. of Shares to Be Bought = Dividend Per Share ÷ Per Share Market Value
= $12,500 ÷ $45 per share
= 277.78 or 278
In July, one of the processing departments at Junkin Corporation had beginning work in process inventory of $29,000 and ending work in process inventory of $31,000. During the month, $205,000 of costs were added to production and the cost of units transferred out from the department was $203,000.

150-seat restaurant $8,000,000 is needed to construct the restaurant; no additional investment is needed in working capital.
The owners have 6,000,000 in cash and borrow the rest from the bank at 5%.
The projected average seat turnover is 2 (use 320 days open in a year).
The stockholders require a 15% return on their investment annually.
The restaurant pays income taxes at the rate of 25%.
The restaurant’s estimated undistributed expenses, not including income taxes, total $2,000,000.
The forecasted cost of food sold and variable labor is 50 percent of sales.
What is the projected annual total number of covers?
Answer:
The answer is $7400000
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
There is no information is given about per unit cost or sales price hence, a reverse calculation is to be made to find out the projected total revenue.
Now,
The reverse calculation to find sales is computed as follows:
Begin from the expected profit + Tax expenses + Interest Expenses + undistributed expenses + variable cost
Thus,
From the calculation of each term is as stated below:
1. The profit expected = 15% return on their investment. it is to be after tax return, total investment = $8000000,
So,
The Profit expected = $8000000 *15% = $1200000.
2. The tax xxpenses = 25% that is, it should be 25% on taxable profit which is decreased from it and then net profit after tax is available,
Thus,
we have net profit after tax we can compute the taxable profit as = $1200000 / 75% = $1600000. for example, tax amount on taxable profit = $160000 * 25% = $400000.
3. The Interest Expenses = 5% of borrowed fund from bank,
Now,
The borrowed fund from bank = $2000000 (8000000-6000000)
The expenses interest = $ 100000 ($2000000*5%)
4. Undistributed Expenses is stated as follows:
The Undistributed expenses are given in the question = $2000000.
5. Variable cost that is the labor cost and cost of food :
From the question it is given that it is 50% of the sales, which means the remaining 50% is the contribution.
Now
The contribution on reverse calculation is computed as:
Profit +taxes + Interest + fixed expenses
Contribution = 1200000 + 400000 + 100000 + 2000000 = $ 3700000,
Thus,
We say,let the sales be 10 , then variable cost be 50 and contribution is 50, that means variable cost = contribution in this case.
so, in proportional calculation , the variable cost = $3700000 .
Thus
The projected sales = expected profit + Tax expenses + Interest Expenses + undistributed expenses + variable cost
The total revenue projected =$1200000+ $ 400000 + $100000 + $ 2000000 +$ 3700000
Therefore, the total revenue projected = $ 7400000

There are many teenagers who would like to
work at gas stations, but they are not hired due
to minimum-wage laws. Price ceiling Binding
Price floor Non-binding
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
Price ceiling:-This is show the limit of the price on maximizing value of the product which is decided by government and his imposed group for customer.
Binding:-The binding price ceiling is below the equilibrium price.
Unbinding:-The unbinding price ceiling is above equilibrium price.
Price floor:-This is show the limit of the price on lower value of the product which is decided by government and his imposed group for customer. A price floor must be higher than the price equilibrium price in order to be effective.
Binding:-The binding price floor is above the equilibrium price.
Unbinding:-The unbinding price floor is below the equilibrium price.
It is given that the equilibrium price of milk is $2.50 per gallon.
Statement 1:-This is the example of price floor and binding because minimum price of $2.30 per gallon is decided.
Statement 2:-This is the example of price floor and binding because minimum price of $3.40 per gallon is decided for gasoline.
Statement 3:-This is the example of price floor and binding because teenagers are not hired due to minimum-wage laws.
At the beginning of the year, Infodeo established its predetermined overhead rate for movies produced during the year by using the following cost predictions: overhead costs, $2,000,000,and direct labor costs, $500,000. At year-end, the companyâs records show that actual overhead costs for the year are $949,700.
Actual direct labor cost had been assigned to jobs as follows.
Movies completed and released $400,000
Movies still in production 36,000
Total actual direct labor cost $436,000
Required:
1) Determine the predetermined overhead rate for the year.
2) Enter the overhead costs incurred and the amounts applied during the year using the predetermined overhead rate and determine whether overhead is overapplied or underapplied.
3) Prepare the adjusting entry to allocate any over or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold.
Answer:
1. 400%
2. The overhead is over applied by $794,300
3. Account Debit Credit
Factory overhead $794,300
Cost of goods sold $794,300
Explanation:
Overhead costs = $2,000,000
Direct labor costs = $500,000.
1. To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we use the formula
Predetermined overhead rate = [tex]\frac{Estimated Overhead}{Estimated Direct Labor Cost}[/tex] × 100
= [tex]\frac{2,000,000}{500,000}[/tex] × 100 = 400%
Therefore, Predetermined overhead rate = 400%
2. Applied overhead cost = Direct material cost × Predetermined overhead cost
Total direct labor cost = $436,000
Therefore, applied overhead cost = $436,000 × 400% = $1,744,000
Actual overhead costs = $949,700
Factory overhead = Applied overhead - Actual overhead
= $1,744,000 - $949,700
= $794,300
The overhead is over applied by $794,300
3. Account Debit Credit
Factory overhead $794,300
Cost of goods sold $794,300
The following data pertains to Xena Corp.: Xena Corp. Total Assets $23,610 Interest-Bearing Debt (market value) $11,070 Average borrowing rate for debt 10.2% Common Equity: Book Value $ 6,150 Market Value $25,830 Marginal Income Tax Rate 37% Market Beta 1.73 Assuming that the risk-free rate is 4.5% and the market risk premium is 6.2%, calculate Xena's cost of equity capital using the capital asset pricing model. Select one: A. 15.2% B. 10.4% C. 13.4% D. 8.9%
Answer:
Option (A).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the cost of equity capital by using following formula:-
Market Beta = 1.73
Risk free rate = 4.50% = 0.045
Market risk premium = 6.20% = 0.062
Cost of Equity Capital = (Market Risk Premium × Market Beta ) + Risk Free Rate
= (0.062 × 1.73) + 0.045
= 0.1073 + 0.045
= 0.1523 or 15.23%
In response to rapidly rising property taxes, California voters approved a statewide ballot initiative, Proposition 13, which froze property taxes regardless of the appraised value of the property. The state was to reassess the value of the property and could increase taxes only when the ownership of property was transferred. The property was exempt from this reassessment if the exchange of ownership was made between persons over the age of fifty-five or between parents and children. Over time, this system created dramatic differences in the taxes paid by people owning similar property. Long-term owners paid lower taxes; new owners paid higher taxes. Stephanie Nordlinger bought a house in Los Angeles County. Nordlinger then sued the county, claiming that the tax system was unconstitutional under the equal protection clause because it allowed the government to treat similarly situated individuals differently. In finding that the law did not violate the equal protection clause, the court most likely applied which of the following standards?
a. Strict scrutiny
b. The rational bass test
c. intermediate scrutiny
d. A due process test
Answer: b. The Rational Basis test
Explanation:
The Rational Basis test allows for a court of law to scrutinize a Government law or regulation to determine if it violates the principles of the Equal Protection clause which holds that people in a jurisdiction are entitled to equal protection under the laws of the jurisdiction.
The Rational Basis clause is usually applied to economic and business laws Instituted by a government and for this reason and the previously mentioned must be the standard that the court applied in finding out if Nordlinger was in the right.
Gelb Company currently manufactures 43,000 units per year of a key component for its manufacturing process. Variable costs are $2.95 per unit, fixed costs related to making this component are $73,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $77,500 per year. The allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys this component. The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.70 per unit. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 43,000 units and buying 43,000 units. Should it continue to manufacture the component, or should it buy this component from the outside supplier
Answer:
It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 43,000 units
Variable costs are $2.95 per unit
Avoidable Fixed costs= $73,000 per year
Unavoidable fixed costs= $77,500 per year.
The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.70 per unit.
We need to calculate the cost of producing and buying and choose the best option.
Production:
Total cost= 43,000*2.95 + 73,000= $199,850
Buy:
Total cost= 43,000*3.7= $159,100
It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.

A gourmet coffee shop in downtown San Francisco is open 200 days a year and sells an average of 75 pounds of Kona coffee beans a day. (Demand can be assumed to be distributed normally, with a standard deviation of 15 pounds per day.) After ordering (fixed cost 5 $16 per order), beans are always shipped from Hawaii within exactly 4 days. Per-pound annual holding costs for the beans are $3.
a) What is the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Kona coffee beans?
b) What are the total annual holding costs of stock for Kona coffee beans?
c) What are the total annual ordering costs for Kona coffee beans?
d) Assume that management has specified that no more than a 1% risk during stockout is acceptable. What should the reorder point (ROP) be?
e) What is the safety stock needed to attain a 1% risk of stockout during lead time?
f) What is the annual holding cost of maintaining the level of safety stock needed to support a 1% risk?
g) If management specified that a 2% risk of stockout during lead time would be acceptable, would the safety stock holding costs decrease or increase?
Answer and Explanation:
Gourmet coffee shop
(a) d= 75 lbs/day 200 days per year
D= 15,000 lb/year
H= $3/lb/year
S= $16/order
EOQ= √(2*15,000*16)/3
=400 lb of beans
(b)Total annual holding cost =
Q/2 * H
= 400/2 * 3
= $600
(c)Total annual order cost
= D/Q * S
= 15,000/400 * 16
= $600
(d) LT= 4 days with σ = 15
Stockout risk = 1%
Z= 2.33
ROP = Lead time demand + SS, where SS= (Z)(σd*LT) and lead time demand = (d)(LT)
σd*LT= (√LT) * 15 = √4 * 15 = 30
ROP = 369.99
where ROP = (d)(LT) + SS
(e) SS= 69.99 from part (d)
(f) Annual safety stock holding cost = $209.97
(g)2% stockout level →Z= 2.054 SS= (Z) * (σdLT)
= 61.61
A- The Economic Order Quantity for Kona coffee beans is 400 pounds.
B- Total annual holding costs of stock for Kona coffee beans $600.
C- Total ordering cost for the Kona coffee beans is also $600.
D- Reorder point at 1% risk will be 369.9
E- This can be achieved with (D) as 70.
F- The safety stock's annual holding cost at 1% risk $209.97
G- The safety stock holding costs will increase if the risk of stock out is 2%.
The above calculations can be achieved with the form of calculations as shown below.

What’s the disadvantage of the stock repurchases relative to the dividend payments? Stock repurchase can help avoiding setting a high dividend level that cannot be maintained. Firms may have to bid up stock price to complete repurchase, thus paying too much for its own stock. Stockholders may take stock repurchase as a positive signal – management thinks stock is undervaluated. Investors can receive income from lower-taxed capital gains rather than the higher-taxed dividends
Answer:
Firms may have to bid up stock price to complete repurchase, thus paying too much for its own stock.
Explanation:
Generally, the price of stocks are not fixed, so it might take a long time for a stock repurchase or buyback to be completed. Investors like buybacks since they tend to increase the price of stocks, but it makes them more expensive for the corporation to repurchase them.
Buybacks are seen positive by investors because they will eventually increase the earnings per share (by decreasing the number of shares outstanding) and they are also taxed in a lower rate than normal income. Management will tend to start buybacks when they believe the stock price is undervalued and they have excess cash. This way they will achieve achieve two objectives with one action:

Four million treasury shares were sold on October 1. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $700 million. The income tax rate is 25%.
Also outstanding at December 31 were incentive stock options granted to key executives on September 13, 2016. The options are exercisable as of September 13, 2020, for 30 million common shares at an exercise price of $56 per share. During 2021, the market price of the common shares averaged $70 per share.

Required:
Compute Berciair's basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Answer:
Basic earnings per share = $1.46
Diluted earnings per share = $1.40
Explanation:
Basic earnings per share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock Calculation :
Net income for the year ended December 31 $700,000,000
Less Preference dividend ( 3,000,000 × 9%×$100×5%) ($1,350,000)
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock $698,650,000
Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders Calculation :
Common Shares 1 January 2021 460 million
Purchased On March 1, 2021, (10/12×24,000,000) 20 million
Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders 480 million
Basic earnings per share = $698,650,000/ 480,000,000
= $1.46
Diluted earnings per share = Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock /Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders
Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock Calculation :
Net income for the year ended December 31 $700,000,000
Less Preference dividend ( 3,000,000 × 9%×$100×5%) ($1,350,000)
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock $698,650,000
Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders Calculation
Common Shares 1 January 2021 460 million
Purchased On March 1, 2021, (10/12×24,000,000) 20 million
Weighted Average Number of Common Stockholders 480 million
Diluted earnings per share = $698,650,000/ 500,000,000
= $1.40
Pharoah Construction enters into a contract with a customer to build a warehouse for $870000 on March 30, 2021 with a performance bonus of $50000 if the building is completed by July 31, 2021. The bonus is reduced by $10000 each week that completion is delayed. Pharoah commonly includes these completion bonuses in its contracts and, based on prior experience, estimates the following completion outcomes: Completed by Probability July 31, 2021 65% August 7, 2021 25% August 14, 2021 5% August 21, 2021 5% The transaction price for this transaction is
Answer:
$915,000
Explanation:
The computation of the transaction price based on the expected value approach is presented below:
The formula is
= (Building cost of warehouse + bonus) × probability percentage
Date Calculation Amount
July 31, 2021 ($870,000+$50,000) × 0.65 $598,000
August 7, 2021 ($870,000+$40,000) × 0.25 $227,500
August 14, 2021 ($870,000+$30,000) × 0.05 $45,000
August 21, 2021 ($870,000+$20,000) × 0.05 $44,500
Total $915,000
Since the bonus is reduced $10,000 each week so $10,000 is subtracted for every delayed week

Mr. Rational has $27 that he plans to spend purchasing 5 units of good X (priced at $3 per unit) and 6 units of good Y (priced at $2 per unit). The marginal utility of the fifth unit of X is 30, and the marginal utility of the sixth unit of Y is 18. If Mr. Rational is a utility maximizer, he should: a. buy less of X and more of Y. b. buy more of X and less of Y. c. buy X and Y in the quantities indicated. d. buy less of X and even lesser than that of Y. e. not buy anything.
Answer:
Option A, buy less of X and more of Y is correct.
Explanation:
The amount that Mr. Rational is going to spend = $27
Quantity of good X = 5 units
Price of good X (Px) = $3 per unit
Marginal utility of 5th unit of X (MUx) = 30
Quantity of good Y = 6 units
Price of good Y (Py) = $2 per unit
Marginal utility of 6th unit of Y (MUy) = 18
[tex]Now \ find \ \frac{MUx}{Px} = \frac{30}{3} = 10 \\[/tex]
[tex]Now \ \frac{MUy}{Py} = \frac{18}{2} = 9[/tex]
[tex]Since \ the \ \frac{MUx}{Px} is \ greater \ than \ \frac{MUy}{Py}.[/tex]
So good x will be substituted for y in order to reach the consumer equilibrium.
[tex]\frac{MUx}{Px} = \frac{MUy}{Py}[/tex]
Thus, Option a. buy less of X and more of Y is correct.
Linda and Richard are married and file a joint return for 2019. During the year, Linda, who works as an accountant for a national airline, used $2,100 worth of free passes for travel on the airline; Richard used the same amount. Linda and Richard also used $850 worth of employee discount coupons for hotel rooms at the hotel chain that is also owned by the airline. Richard is employed at State University as an accounting clerk. Under a tuition reduction plan, Richard saved $4,000 in tuition fees during 2019. He is studying for a master's degree in business at night while still working full-time. Richard also had $30 worth of personal typing done by his administrative assistant at the University.
What is the amount of fringe benefits that should be included in Linda and Richard's gross income on their 2019 tax return?
Answer:
$4,850
Explanation:
the amount of fringe benefits that should be included in Linda and Richard's gross income on their 2019 tax return is $4,850
This was gotten by adding $850 worth of employee discount coupons for hotel rooms and $4,000 in tuition fees during 2019
$4,000 + $850
= $4,850

The management of Shatner Manufacturing Company is trying to decide whether to continue manufacturing a part or to buy it from an outside supplier. The part, called CISCO, is a component of the company’s finished product. The following information was collected from the accounting records and production data for the year ending December 31, 2020.
1. 7,900 units of CISCO were produced in the Machining Department.
2. Variable manufacturing costs applicable to the production of each CISCO unit were: direct materials $4.58, direct labor $4.51, indirect labor $0.45, utilities $0.41.
3. Fixed manufacturing costs applicable to the production of CISCO were:
Cost Item Direct Allocated
Depreciation $1,900 $860
Property taxes 530 320
Insurance 870 610 $3,
300 $1,790
All variable manufacturing and direct fixed costs will be eliminated if CISCO is purchased. Allocated costs will have to be absorbed by other production departments.4. The lowest quotation for 7,900 CISCO units from a supplier is $63,200.5. If CISCO units are purchased, freight and inspection costs would be $0.60 per unit, and receiving costs totaling $1,270 per year would be incurred by the Machining Department.Required:a) Prepare an incremental analysis for CISCO.
Answer:
Financial advantage of purchasing Cisco from outside vendor = $9,440
