Answer:

1500

F = fixed cost

P = price

V = variable cost per unit

$270,000 / ($600 - $420) = 1500

Mira Mesa Appliances makes and sells kitchen equipment for offices and hotel rooms. Mira Mesa management believes that a new model of refrigerator made out of a synthetic material would sell well at a price of $260 per unit. Labor costs are estimated at $32 per unit and overhead costs would be $24 per unit. The major uncertainty is the price of the synthetic material. Mira Mesa is in negotiations with several suppliers for the material. Because of the risk associated with the new product, Mira Mesa will only proceed if the estimated return is at least 30 percent of the selling price.Required:
What is the most Mira Mesa can pay for the synthetic material per unit (refrigerator) and meet its profitability goal?

Answers

Answer:

$126

Explanation:

We can calculate the amount Mira can pay for the synthetic material per unit (refrigerator) and meet its profitability goal by deducting the estimated profit and then all the cost from the selling price per unit.

Selling price per unit                                        $260

Less

estimated return (260x30%) =                    ($78)

Labor costs                                                    ($32)

Overhead costs                                            ($24)

Material                                                              $126      

Amount Mira can pay for Synthetic material per unit is $126

               

A local ice-cream parlor has 100 customers in the "rush" hour between 5PM and 6PM (assume that the customers arrive according to a uniform distribution, i.e., evenly spread out during the hour). If there are two employees who scoop the ice-cream for the customers, and one more who deals with the payments, then what is the Taktzeit for the ice-cream scoopers? a- 72 seconds
b- 100 seconds
c- 36 seconds
d- 50 seconds

Answers

Answer: 36 seconds.

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the Taktzeit for the ice-cream scoopers will be calculated thus:

First and foremost, Taktzeit refers to the time taken between the beginning of production for one unit and the beginning of the next unit.

From the information given, the available Time is 1 hour which can be converted to secunds and this will be:

1 hour = 3600 seconds

Hourly Demand = 100

Then, the takzeit will be:

= 3600/100

= 36 seconds

Jolsan Technologies had received a contract to produce two units of a new cruise missile guidance control. The first unit took 5,000 hours to complete and cost $30,000 in materials and equipment usage. The second took 4,500 hours and cost $24,000 in materials and equipment usage. Labor cost is charged at $20 per hour. The prime contractor has now approached Jolsan Technologies and asked to submit a bid for the cost of producing another 20 guidance controls. Use Exhibit 6.4 and Exhibit 6.5. What will the last unit cost to build

Answers

Answer:

$73,600

Explanation:

A learning curve is a correlation between a learner's performance on a task and the number of attempts or time required to complete the task; this can be represented as a direct proportion on a graph

The last unit will be 22nd unit .

Using learning curve table ,

Time required to build 22nd unit = 3125.49 hours

labour cost to build 22nd unit (  $20 per hour ) = $20 x $3125.49

labour cost to build 22nd unit = $62509.80

Using learning curve table ,

material and equipment cost to build 22nd unit = $11090.67

Therefore,

total cost to build the last unit = Labour cost + Material and equipment cost  total cost to build the last unit = $62509.80 + $11090.67

total cost to build the last unit = $73600.47

Learning rate for labour hours ( L1) = Time for 2nd unit / Time for 1st unit

Learning rate for labour hours ( L1) = 4500/5000

Learning rate for labour hours ( L1) = 0.90

Learning rate for material and equipment usage

Learning rate for material and equipment usage  = Material and equipment cost for 2nd item / Material and equipment cost for 1st item

Learning rate for material and equipment usage  = 24000/30000

Learning rate for material and equipment usage  = 0.80 or 80 %  

Lake Corp., a newly organized company, reported pretax financial income of $100,000 for 20X0. Among the items reported in Lake's 20X0 income statement are the following: Premium on officer's life insurance with Lake as owner and beneficiary of $15,000

Interest received on municipal bonds of $ 20,000

The enacted tax rate for 20X0 is 30% and 25% thereafter. In its December 31, 20X0, balance sheet, Lake should report a deferred income tax liability of:

a.$4,500

b.$0

c.$3,750

d.$28,500

Answers

Answer:

b.$0

Explanation:

As we know that

When there is a temporary discrepancy between financial income and taxable income a deferred tax benefit or liability occurs. Temporary difference means an benefit or cost with respect to treatment that has just a timing gap.

Moreover, the Premium on officer's life insurance is tax deductible i.e $15,000  as it is paid by the company due to which difference arise between the financial and taxable income.

And,  

Interest received on municipal bonds $20,000 are mostly exempt from federal income tax.

Therefore, it shows no such difference as it indicates the permanent difference
