Answer:
$600 unfavorable
Explanation:
The budgeted cost of producing 14,000 units at $5.50 per unit and with fixed costs of $19,400 is:

Answer:
The correct answer is 35%.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
We can calculate the Weighted average contribution margin ratio by using following formula:
weighted-average contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin ratio × Sales of sporting goods) + (Contribution margin ratio × Sales of sporting gears)
= ( 30 × 75% ) + ( 50 × 25%)
= 22.5% + 12.5%
= 35%
Answer:
c. will be able to make new loans up to a maximum of $9.50
Explanation:
If the reserve requirement is 5% it means that the bank is required to reserve(not loan out) 5% of it's reserves so in this case the bank is required to 5% of 10 (0.05*10) $0.50 as reserves and can loan out $9.50 (10-0.50). As the bank has no desire to hold on to excess reserves we can be sure that it will only hold 0.50 as reserve as it is required and loan out $9.50. So statement c is correct.
Statement A is incorrect because the bank does not need to increase required reserve by $10 but by just $0.50.
Statement B is incorrect a deposit of $10 cannot increase the total reserve by $10.50 as it is impossible mathematically.
Statement d is incorrect because 2 of the 3 statements are incorrect therefore all of the above statements cant be correct.
Answer:
c. $87,000
Explanation:
The computation of the Arthur's basis in the partnership interest at the end of the year is shown below:
= His share of partnership liabilities + net operating income share + increased share in liabilities - distributed amount
= $60,000 + $12,000 + $20,000 - $5,000
= $87,000
Net operating income share is
= $40,000 × 30%
= $12,000
We simply applied the above formula
