Answer:

$52,500

Explanation:

The cost associated with repair or replacement of a product incase it foes not function after its purchase is termed warranty. It is debited to the warranty expense account and credited to warranty to the warranty liability account

Total sales for the year $3,000,000

Warranty estimated basis 4%

Estimated warranty = $3,000,000 × 4% = $120,000

Warranty cost incurred $67,500

Balance to be recorded for the year

= $120,000 - $67,500

= $52,500

Suppose Bob and Cho form a cartel and behave as a monopolist. The profit-maximizing __________price isper gallon, and the total output is__________gallons. As part of their cartel agreement, Bob and Cho agree to split production equally. Therefore, Bob's profit is__________, and Cho's profit is____________.

Suppose that Bob and Cho have been successfully operating as a cartel. They each charge the monopoly price and sell half of the monopoly quantity. Then one night before going to sleep, Bob says to himself, "Cho and I aren't the best of friends anyway. If I increase my production to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount, I can increase my profit even though her profit goes down. I will do that starting tomorrow."

After Bob implements his new plan, the price of water ________ to__________per gallon. Given Cho and Bob's production levels, Bob's profit becomes________ and Cho's profit becomes___________. Because Bob has deviated from the cartel agreement and increased his output of water to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount, Cho decides that she will also increase her production to 40 gallons more than the cartel amount. After Cho increases her production, Bob's profit becomes__________, Cho's profit becomes_________, and total profit (the sum of the profits of Bob and Cho) is now____________.

Elliot, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 20,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $10.50 per hour.

The management of Krach Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. The company's controller has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for the upcoming year is 13,000 machine-hours. Capacity is 19,000 machine-hours and the actual level of activity for the year is assumed to be 9500 machine-hours. All of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and both the estimated amount at the beginning of the year and the actual amount at the end of the year are assumed to be $22,800 per year. For simplicity, it is assumed that this is the estimated manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the manufacturing overhead at capacity. It is further assumed that this is also the actual amount of manufacturing overhead for the year. If the company bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, what would be the cost of unused capacity reported on the income statement prepared for internal management purposes
