Mfg company experiences the following cost behavior patterns each week: fixed costs: supervisor’s salary $3,000; factory rent $6,500 mixed costs: utilities $3,500 + $10.25 per unit variable costs per unit: manufacturing labor wages $30.00; supplies used in production $13.50; packaging cost $7.25; warranty cost $4 required: compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,950 units of activity. (do not round intermediate calculations.)

Total cost= $204,750

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs: supervisor’s salary $3,000; factory rent $6,500

Mixed costs: utilities $3,500 + $10.25 per unit

Variable costs per unit:

manufacturing labor wages $30.00

supplies used in production $13.50

packaging cost $7.25

warranty cost $4

Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,950 units of activity.

Fixed costs= 3,000 + 6,500 + 3,500= $13,000

Variable costs= (10.25 + 30 + 13.5 + 7.25 + 4)*2,950= $191,750

Total cost= $204,750

This question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Inflation sometimes causes people to pay capital gains tax than they ought to, .

more; if much of their calculated profits from selling assets was due to inflation

less; because tax laws do not typically account for inflation

more; because the inflation adjustments in tax laws overcompensate for inflation

more; if they neglect to claim the inflation adjustment that tax laws allow

less; because inflation creates the opportunity for a tax write-off

The answer is: more; if much of their calculated profits from selling assets was due to inflation

Explanation:

An increase in an asset's price is determined based on the nominal amount and not the real value adjusted for inflation. If this asset is sold above cost, then a profit/gain on sale is calculated and taxed fully by the tax authorities. There is no distinction between an increase in price brought about by inflation versus an increase associated with value appreciation hence no adjustment for inflation prior to the tax computation. Owing to this, an increase in value brought purely by inflation increases the effective tax rate and tax amount payable.
