Ella Co. uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. For the month of October, Ella's estimated manufacturing overhead cost was P300,000 based on an estimated activity level of 100,000 direct labor-hours. Actual overhead amounted to P325,000 with actual direct labor-hours totaling 110,000 for the month. How much was the overapplied or underapplied overhead? Answer Format: 1,000 overapplied or 1,000 underapplied
A company has invested in an online tool that is expected to generate a continuous revenue at a rate that increases 252 thousand TLs per time period t (t= 0 is when the tool begins to function). A continous promotion cost (in thousand TLs) function for 578 time periods, C(t), is also derived for the machine, C(t) = -t2 + 578t. Find out when the tool starts to generate profit? (Ignore the range of the cost function.
Azree an accountant, working for a foreign consultant firm and earning RM 78,000 per year is contemplating giving up his job and set up his own tax consultant firm. He estimates that renting an office would cost RM 780 per month, hiring a secretary with salary RM 1,500 per month and purchasing for required supplies would cost him RM 10,000 per annum. He estimated that his total revenues for the year would be RM 120,000. a)Define the explicit cost and implicit cost
Q2.Khalid has started a small business deals with a certain product, he achieved an amount of sales OMR 10400, at the price of OMR 260 per unit, but when he reduced the price to OMR 200 per unit he achieved sales of OMR 11000. If the variable cost per unit is OMR 60, and the fixed cost is OMR 5100.Required: i. From the above information, formulate the price function, and the cost function of this business. ii. Use the functions to determine the following:a. Profit maximizing quantity.b. Profit-maximizing price.c. Maximum profit value.d. Revenue-maximizing quantity. iii. Suggest a reduction in the fixed cost which gives a maximum profit value between OMR (4000 and 5500), calculate the maximum profit value after the cost reduction.
When the power law is applied to unit costs, unit costs exhibit a(n)?
A manufacturer produces certain items at a labor cost per unit o P 315, material cost per unit IS P 100 , variable cost of P 3.00 each. If the item has a selling price of P 995 how many units must be manufactured each month for the manufacturer to break even if the monthly overhead is P 461,600?
A second firm's production function is given by the equation Q = 12L.5K.5. Input prices are $36 per labor unit and $16 per capital unit, and P = $10. a. In the short run, the firm has a fixed amount of capital, K = 9. Create a spreadsheet to model this production setting. Determine the firm's profit - maximizing employment of labor. Use the spreadsheet to probe the solution using your spreadsheet's optimizer.
Find the Total Cost function as a function of q, c, d. A. w and r; and graph it in relationship to q in excel The idea is to solve the following input minimization problem ina general manner: minTC(K, L ) = wL+ rKs. t. q = AK^CL^d Make sure to set - up your spreadsheet by identifying the optimization problem, the endogenous variables, the exogenous variables and the constraint. Make sure also to show a cell that computes TRS and another that computes -w/r.
Tomas Ocampo has just been appointed chairperson of the Accountancy Department of ADEB College. In reviewing the department’s cost records, Tomas has found the following total cost associated with MAS Part 2 subject over the last several terms: Semester/Term Number of Subjects Offered Total Cost AY2004, First Semester 4 P10,000 AY2004, Second Semester 6 14,000 AY2004, Summer 2 7,000 AY2005, First Semester 5 13,000 AY2005, Second Semester 3 9,500 Tomas knows that there are some variable costs, such as amounts paid to student assistants, associated with the course. He would like to have variable and fixed cost components separated for planning purposes. Using the least-squares method, what is the variable cost per section of MAS?
Sally Statistics is implementing a system of statistical process control (SPC) charts in her factory in an effort to reduce the overall cost of scrapped product. The current cost of scrap is $X per month. If a 75% learning curve is expected in the use of the SPC charts to reduce the cost of scrap, what would the percentage reduction in monthly scrap cost be after the charts have been used for 6 months? (Hint: Model each month as a unit of production.)
