Answer:

1. $3.20 x 2.20 = $7.04

2. It will be favorable.

3. It will be unfavorable.

4. Direct material price variance = $22

   Direct material quantity variance = 0.48

Explanation:

1. Standard direct cost per unit=cost of direct materials price x direct material standard quantity per unit.

2. It will be favorable because they expected or had budgeted to pay $3.60 per foot for the material but the actual cost became $3.20. So they  pay $0.40 less than they had expected to pay.

3. It will be unfavorable because they had planed or budgeted for each unit to use 2.05 feet of leather but they ended up needing 2.20 feet of leather per collar so that means they under budgeted by 0.15 feet.

4. Direct material price variance =( $3.60 x 55) less ($3.20x55)=$22

The total amount that was budgeted or expected to be paid is subtracted from the total actual  price that was paid.

Direct material quantity variance = (2.05x$3.20) less (2.20x$3.20)= -0.48

The total direct material quantity that is used is subtracted from the quantity that was expected to be used.

Andrea invests $5,000 in five Epic Electronics bonds that mature in 10 years. Unexpectedly just the week after she invests, she
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The answer is option C. She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.

Explanation:

She may immediately sell the bonds but it is unclear how much money they will sell for.

Investors who hold onto their bonds until maturity are assured of to receive the face value of the bond. In our case, if Andrea would have chosen to hold her $5,000  bond investment for 10 years, she would have been assured the  bonds face value, however since she prefers to use the cash to work abroad, she can sell the bonds immediately.

Selling a bond before it's maturity date can either be beneficial or detrimental. This depends on the value of the bond at the time of sale. If at the time of sale the bond would have gained value, then the bond will sell at a higher price than when it was bought. On the other hand, if the bond at the time of sale has lost value, then the bond will sell at a lower price than the price which it was bought.

In our case, the best option for Andrea would be to sell the bonds immediately, since she really needs the cash. If it happens that at the point at which she sells the bonds they will have gained value, then she will have more than $5,000 cash, however, if at the point she decides to sell the bonds they will have lost value, then she will have less than $5,000 depending on how much value was lost from the time she bought the bonds and the time she sold the bonds.

Two stockbrokers, in clear violation of the rules of their employer, sold worthless stocks to unsuspecting customers. There was
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: Yes they did.

Explanation:

Apparent Authority refers to a scenario where a Agent is assumed to have the power to act on behalf of a Principal regardless of if said authority had not being expressly given whether implicitly or otherwise.

It is worthy of note that this power is only valid if the third party in the transaction assumes from the conduct of the agent, that they have such powers to act.

It is stated in the text that there was no question that the brokers had the actual or implied authority to sell the stock meaning that the Principal had not done enough to show that the agents did not have the Authority to act as they did. For this reason, they can indeed be sued under the Principle of Apparent Authority.
