Answer:

Volume variance    $1,320  Favorable

Explanation:

The fixed overhead volume variance is the difference between the actual and budgeted production unit multiplied by the standard fixed production overhead cost per unit.

Standard fixed overhead cost per unit = $11×6 =  116

                                                                                             Units

Budgeted     units                                                               375

Actual            units                                                              <u>395</u>

Volume variance                                                                  20

Standard fixed overhead cost                                        <u>× $66 </u>

Volume variance                                                              <u>  $1,320   Favorable</u>

Moira Company has just finished its first year of operations and must decide which method to use for adjusting inventory account
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The Cost of good sold will decrease by 10,000

The other accounts balance will be the same.

<em>Missing Information:</em>

Ending balances in the relevant accounts were:

Work-in-Process            40,000

Finished Goods             80,000

Cost of Goods Sold     680,000

Explanation:

The company applied overhead for the amount of 435,000

This was charged into finished good which latter become cost of goods sold.

Then, as the actual overhead was 425,000 we have to adjust for the over-applied overehad. We applied more than it cost so we have to reduce it.

435,000 - 425,000 = 10,000

<u>We will decrease our COGS against the factory overhead account.</u>

COGS 10,000 debit

  factory overhead 10,000 credit

Furkat [3]

Answer: Mutual mistake

Explanation:

A mutual mistake in a contract is a situation that arises when the parties in a contract make the same mistake in reference to a significant fact in the contract. i.e., they are mutually ignorant of a fact of the contract.

Had they both known about that mistake, they might not have gone into the contract so the contract is voidable in this scenario.

Both Walker and Sheerwood were mutually mistaken about the fact that Rose was pregnant when they went into the contract so this contract is voidable by this theory.

Within a PPF framework, explain each of the following: (a) a disagreement between a person who favors more domes-tic welfare spe
arsen [322]

Answer:

A. Movement on the PPC

B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC

C. Less Concavity of PPC

Explanation:

Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).

  • It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
  • It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
  • Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.

a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)

b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.

c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.
