Answer: c. capital loss.
Explanation:
A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.
The dividends paid seem to outweigh the capital loss but we cannot be certain of this unless we know the tax rate being applied to the dividends and because these are usually high, the after tax dividends might have been lower the capital loss of $2.

= $20,881

Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the following;
Standard hours per unit of output 6.4 hours
Standard variable overhead rate $12.80 per hour
Actual hours 2,650 hours
Actual output 150 units
To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we will use the formula below;
Variable overhead efficiency variance
= (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) × Standard rate
Standard quantity = 150 units × 6.4 = 960
Variable overhead efficiency variance
= (960 - 2,650) × $12.80
= $21,632 unfavourable
