a. Standard labor-hours is 7920 hours.
b. Standard labor cost allowed is $42,768.
c. The labor spending variance is $1588(U).
d. The labor rate variance is $1706 and the labor efficiency variance $3294(U).
e. The variable overhead rate is $5971(U) and efficiency variances for the month $5580(U).
<u>Explanation:</u>
a)Standars hours(SH) allowed to make 19800 jogging mates
=SH per unit
19800
=(24/60)*19800
=7920 hours
24/60 has been taken to convert minutes into hours.
b)Standard Labor Cost (SC) of 19800 jogging mates

=$42,768
c)Labour Spending Variance

=$1588(U)
d)Labor Rate Variance

=$1706
Actual Hours(AH) * Actual Rate per hour(AR)= Actual Cost(AC)


Labor Efficiency Variance

=$3294(U)
e) Variable overhead rate variance = Actual hours worked (Standard overhead rate - Actual overhead rate)
= 8530 (4.5 - 5.20)
= $5971(U)
Actual overhead rate = $44,356 / 8530 = 5.20
Variable overhead efficiency variance = Standard overhead rate (Standard hours - Actual hours)
= 4.50 (7290 - 8530)
= $5580(U).
Answer: D. All of these (happy to help)
Explanation:
I think this is a trick question. Say, there are 2 pounds of cocoa / 1 gallon of chocolate ice cream. But then the problem only mentions the production of eight gallons of <em>strawberry</em> ice cream, not chocolate ice cream.
However, if they're somehow related (like they are made from the same machine), then you need 16 pounds of cocoa to produce 8 gallons of chocolate ice cream.

Explanation:
Since Mr. A already owns 75% of common stock (and 85% of nonvoting stock), the extra 5% will result in a total of 80% (and 90%), that means that he cannot recognize any loss or gain resulting from this transaction. This applies to all stockholders that own at least 80% of a company's stocks and transfer property in exchange for more stocks.
