Description

1) The adoption of variable costing for managerial decision making is based on the premise that fixed factory overhead costs are related to productive capacity of the manufacturing plant and are normally not affected by the number of units produced. True False True Break-even analysis is one type of cost-volume-profit analysis. True False True Use this information for Rusty Co. to answer the question that follow.Rusty Co. sells two products, X and Y. Last year, Rusty sold 5,000 units of X and 35,000 units of Y. Related data are as follows: Unit Selling Unit Variable Unit Contribution Product Price Cost Margin X $110 $70 $40 Y 70 50 20 What was Rusty Co.'s weighted average unit selling price? a.$180 b.$75 c.$100 d.$110 B Total variable costs change as the level of activity changes. True False True Spice Inc.'s unit selling price is $50, unit variable costs are $33, fixed costs are $108,000, and current sales are 9,500 units. How much will operating income change if sales increase by 5,300 units? a.$251,600 increase b.$90,100 increase c.$161,500 decrease d.$161,500 increase B

Charlotte Co. has budgeted salary increases to factory supervisors totaling 9%. If selling prices and all other cost relationships are held constant, next year's break-even point a.will decrease by 9% b.will increase by 9% c.cannot be determined from the data given. d.will increase at a rate greater than 9% C Costs that vary in total in direct proportion to changes in an activity level are called a.sunk costs b.fixed costs c.variable costs d.differential costs C Kaden Company's fixed costs are $46,800, the unit selling price is $42, and the unit variable costs are $24. What are the break-even sales (units)? a.2,400 b.1,114 c.2,600 d.1,950 C The relevant activity base for a cost depends on which base is most closely associated with the cost and the decision-making needs of management. True False True Direct materials cost that varies with the number of units produced is an example of a fixed cost of production. True False False If fixed costs are $850,000 and the unit contribution margin is $50, profit is $0 when 15,000 units are sold. True False False As production increases, the fixed cost per unit a.increases b.decreases c.remains the same d.either increases or decreases, depending on the variable costs

B

Manley Co. manufactures office furniture. During the most productive month of the year, 4,500 desks were manufactured at a total cost of $86,625. In its slowest month, the company made 1,800 desks at a cost of $49,500. Using the high-low method of cost estimation, total fixed costs a.are $24,750 b.are $33,875

c.are $61,875 d.Cannot be determined from the data given. A Which of the following describes the behavior of a variable cost per unit? a.varies in decreasing proportion with changes in the activity level b.remains constant with changes in the activity level c.varies in direct proportion with the activity level d.varies in increasing proportion with changes in the activity level B If employees accept a wage contract that increases the unit contribution margin, the break-even point will decrease. True False True The capital expenditures budget is part of the planned investing activities of a company. True False True Production and sales estimates for March for Robin Co. are as follows: Estimated inventory (units), March 1 17,100 Desired inventory (units), March 31 20,000

Expected sales volume (units): Area M 6,800 Area L 9,800 Area O 7,400 Unit sales price $14 The number of units expected to be manufactured in March is a.24,000 b.44,000 c.61,100 d.26,900 D Miller and Sons' static budget for 10,000 units of production includes $50,000 for direct materials, $44,000 for direct labor, variable utilities of $5,000, and supervisor salaries of $24,000. A flexible budget for 12,000 units of production would show a.direct materials of $60,000, direct labor of $52,800, utilities of $6,000, and supervisor salaries of $28,800

b.direct materials of $60,000, direct labor of $52,800, utilities of $6,000, and supervisor salaries of $24,000 c.the same cost structure in total d.total variable costs of $148,000 B Part of the cash budget is based on information drawn from the capital expenditures budget.
