Answer:
$84 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the activity variance for supplies cost is shown below:
Supplies cost for the standard one is
= $1,840 + (624 frames × $12 per frame)
= $9,328
And, the supplies cost for the actual one is
= $1,840 + (631 frames × $12)
= $9,412
So the activity variance is
= $9,328 - $9,412
= $84 unfavorable
As the standard cost is less than the actual one
Answer:
a. does not shift
b. shifts to the left
c. increases
a. decreases
Explanation:
As a result of the drought affecting the supply of cream, the supply of chocolate would fall. As a result, the supply curve would shift to the left. The demand curve would remain unchanged.
As a result of the leftward shift of the supply curve, the equilibrium price would increase and quantity would fall.
Answer:
-5.72%
Explanation:
Total rate of return = (Total return/net loss ÷ Purchase Price) × 100 ......... (1)
Loss on sales = Purchase price - Sales price = $1102 - $989 = $113.
Net loss = Coupon received - loss on sales = $50 - $113 = -$63
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Total rate of return = ((-63) ÷ 1,102) × 100 = -5.72%
Therefore, the total rate of return is -5.72%. It is negative because the coupon bond led into net loss.
