ANSWER 31
B The original cost of $49,000 is a past cost, or sunk cost, and is therefore irrelevant. The material would not be re-worked, since its value would only increase by $5,000 ($17,500 $12,500) for a cost of $7,500. The relvant cost of using the material on the job is, therefore, the opportunity cost of the scrap sale foregone, i.e. 12,500.

ANSWER 32
C

ANSWER 33
C

ANSWER 34
D Material required to meet maximum demand: 6000 (134) + 8,000 (194) = 57,500 litres Material available = 55,000 litres. Therefore, material is a limiting factor. Labour required to meet maximum demand: 6000 (357) + 8,000 (287) = 62,000 hours Labour available = 58,000 hours. Therefore, labour is a limiting factor.
