Answer:
A. The company paid a higher cost for the direct materials than allowed by the standards.
Explanation:
The following is a logical explanation for this variance:
Since, the standard quantity of raw materials to be used is 22 pounds x 500 units = 11000 pounds. The actual usage is 9500 pounds ony. Hence, variance in direct material price variance can be only due to higher cost of direct material purchased.
I think it's called the Holland code.
Answer:
$64,000 and $358,000
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For land:
= Purchase price of land + Legal fees for contracts to purchase land + Demolition of old building on site - Sale of scrap from old building
= $60,000 + $2,000 + $5,000 - $3,000
= $64,000
For building:
= Construction cost of new building (fully completed) + Architects’ fees
= $350,000 + $8,000
=$358,000

Answer:
(i) 900 CDs
(ii) Greater than; $1,650
Explanation:
(1) Break-event point will be when the contribution margin from total sales is equal to fixed costs,
Contribution Margin = Selling price - variable cost
= $(21.5 - 9.5)
= $12
Contribution Margin *Number of CDs sold = $10,800
Break-even point for Studio A = 10,800 ÷ 12
= 900 CDs
(2) Studio A would be more profitable when the extra profit earned from per unit sale of CD exceeds the extra fixed cost given in Studio A.
Extra Contribution margin in Studio A = $(12-10)
= $2
Extra Fixed cost in Studio A = $(10,800 - 7,500)
= $3,300
Studio A should be chosen if sales is greater than (3300/2) = $1,650.
