An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. by collecting data on volume and cost and using the least squares method to develop an estimated regression equation relating volume and cost, an accountant can estimate the cost associated with a particular manufacturing volume. consider the following sample of production volumes and total cost data for a manufacturing operation. production volume (units) total cost ($) 400 4000 450 5000 550 5400 600 5900 700 6400 750 7000 compute b 1 and b 0 (to 2 decimals if necessary). b 1 b 0 complete the estimated regression equation (to 2 decimals if necessary). = + x what is the variable cost per unit produced (to 1 decimal)? $ compute the coefficient of determination (to 4 decimals). note: report r 2 between 0 and 1. r 2 = what percentage of the variation in total cost can be explained by the production volume (to 2 decimals)? % the company's production schedule shows 500 units must be produced next month. what is the estimated total cost for this operation (to 2 decimals)? $

Within the relevant range, if there is a change in the level of the cost driver, then a. total fixed costs will remain the same and total variable costs will change b. total fixed costs will change and total variable costs will remain the same c. total fixed costs and total variable costs will change d. total fixed costs and total variable costs will remain the same

What additional information about the numbers used to compute this ratio might be useful in you assess liquidity? (select all that apply) (a) the maturity schedule of current liabilities (b) the average stock price for the industry (c) the average current ratio for the industry (d) the amount of current assets that is concentrated in relatively illiquid inventories
