Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": when the actual price is less than the standard price.
Explanation:
Direct labor rate variance compares the existing direct labor costs and normal direct labor costs over the same operating period. Favorable variance in the labor rate can be caused by hiring more unskilled employees, reducing the minimum wage, and incorrectly setting indirect labor costs. Favorable variance takes place when the <em>costs of direct labor are efficient or lower compared to the standard</em>.
Answer: Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Revenues = $300,000
Merchandise it purchased = $75,000
Salaries paid = $14,000
Owners invested = $23,000
Borrowed on a five-year note = $23,000
Interest paid = $3,000
Paid for a two-year insurance policy = $6,800
Income tax rate = 9%
Gross Margin = Revenues - Cost of Goods Sold
= $300,000 - $75,000
= $225,000
Profit before tax = Gross Margin - Salaries - Insurance payment - Interest
= $225,000 - 14,000 - 3,400 - 3,000
= $204,600
Net Income = Profit before tax - Tax at 9%
= $204,600 - 18,414
= $186,186
Answer:
Stockholders' equity at the end of the year was $110,000.
Explanation:
Beginning Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $40,000
Net Income for the year = $90,000
Dividend declared in the year = $20,000
Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = Beginning Balance of Stockholder's Equity + Net Income for the year -Dividend declared in the year
Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $40,000 + $90,000 - $20,000
Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $110,000
