erhead is applied to products on the basis of direct labor-hours.
Inputs Standard Quantity or Hours per Unit of Output Standard Price or Rate
Direct materials 8.50 liters $ 8.10 per liter
Direct labor 0.60 hours $ 25.70 per hour
Variable manufacturing overhead 0.60 hours $ 7.00 per hour
The company has reported the following actual results for the product for September:

Actual output 10,700 units
Raw materials purchased 93,100 liters
Actual cost of raw materials purchased $ 771,500
Raw materials used in production 90,960 liters
Actual direct labor-hours 6,000 hours
Actual direct labor cost $ 160,302
Actual variable overhead cost $ 35,414
Required:

a. Compute the materials price variance for September.

b. Compute the materials quantity variance for September.

c. Compute the labor rate variance for September.

d. Compute the labor efficiency variance for September.

e. Compute the variable overhead rate variance for September.

f. Compute the variable overhead efficiency variance for September.

(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Answer:

a. The materials price variance for September is $17,390 Unfav

b. The materials quantity variance for September is 81 Unfav

c. The labor rate variance for September is 6,102 Unfav

d. The labor efficiency variance for September is 107,954 Fav

e. The variable overhead rate variance for September is $6,586 Fav

f. The variable overhead efficiency variance for September is 2,940 Fav

Explanation:

a.  According to the given data we have the following:

Std material qty for actual output= (10700*8.50)= 90,950  

Std material price per liter= $8.1  

Actualq ty purchased= 93,100  

Actual qty used =90,960  

Actual price= (771,500/93,100)=$8.286788  

Therefore, Material price variance= Actual qty prucased (Std price - Actual price)

Material price variance= 931,00 ($8.10 -$8.29) = $ 17,390 Unfav

b. To calculate the materials quantity variance for September we would have to use the following formula:

Material qty variance= Std price (Std quantity-Actual quantity)  

Material qty variance= $8.10(90950-90960)= 81 Unfav

c. To calculate the labor rate variance for September we would have to use the following formula:

Labour rate variance= Actual hours (Std rate-Actual rate)

Std labour hours allowed= (10700*0.60)= 6420 hours  

Std rate per hour= $ 25.70 per hour    

Actual labour hours= 6000 hour    

Actual rate per hour=(160302/6000)=26.717  

Therefore, Labour rate variance= 6000 (25.70 -26.717) = 6,102 Unfav

d. To calculate the lthe labor efficiency variance for September we would have to use the following formula:

Labour Efficiency variance= Std rate (Std hourrs-Actual hours)  

Labour Efficiency variance=25.70 (6420 -6000) = 107,954 Fav

e. To calculate the variable overhead rate variance for September we would have to use the following formula:

Variable Oh rate variance= Actual hours (Std OH rate-Actual OH rate)

Std variable OH rate per hour: 7 pr hor    

Actuall variable OH rate per hour (35414/6000): 5.902 Per hour  

Therefore, Variable Oh rate variance= 6000 ( 7.00 -5.902) = $ 6,586 Fav

f. To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance for September we would have to use the following formula:

Variable OH efficiency variance= Std OH rate (Std hours-Actual hours)

Variable OH efficiency variance= 7.00 (6420 - 6000) = 2,940 Fav

A business has the following items: - Land $1,500,000 - Machinery $30,000 - Cash $10,000 - Loan $500,000 - Owner’s equity? _____
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The owner's equity amounts to $1,040,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the owner's equity is as:

Owner's equity = Assets - Liabilities

Where

Assets = Land + Machinery + Cash

= $1,500,000 + $30,000 + $10,000

= $1,500,000 + $40,000

= $1,540,000

Liabilities = Loan

= $500,000

Putting the values above in the formula:

= $1,540,000 - $500,000

= $1,040,000

Paul consumes only books and DVDs. At his current consumption​ bundle, his marginal utility from DVDs is 23 and from books is 5.
Paul [167]

Answer:

Paul is not maximizing his utility because MUd/Pd is greater than MUb/Pb

Explanation:

Marginal utility is the extra satisfaction derived from spending an additional unit of money on consuming a particular product or service.

In order to determine if he is maximizing his utility, we must calculate his utility per dollar, and this is done by dividing his Marginal Utility by the price.

Marginal Utility per dollar of DVDs is:

MUd/Pd = 23/11 = 2.09

Marginal Utility per dollar of books is:

MUb/Pb = 5/3 = 1.67

Utility is maximized when MUd/Pd is equal to MUb/Pb and Paul has exhausted his budget.

Quantity demanded price quantity supplied 45 $10 77 50 8 73 56 6 68 61 4 61 67 2 57 refer to the data. suppose quantity demanded
saul85 [17]

a. When the demand increases by 12 units, the equilibrium price rises to $6.2093 and the equilibrium quantity rises to 67.7442 units.

b. The price elasticity of supply (PES) at equilibrium is 0.20. Since the price elasticity is less than 1, we conclude that supply is inelastic.

From the given data, we can see that the equilibrium price is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 68 units.

If the demand increases by 12 units at each point of price decline, the demand equation will be :

Qd = 105 - 6P

and the supply equation will be:

Qs = 51.6 + 2.6P

Since Quantity demanded and supplied are equal at equilibrium, we can equate the demand and supply equations and solve for price (P). Equating the two equations above, we get,

105-6P = 51.6 +2.6P

53.4 = 8.6P

P = $6.2093

Substituting the value of P in the demand equation, we get,

Qd = 105 - (6*6.2093)

Qd = 105 - 6P

Qd = 67.7442 units

b. Calculation of Price Elasticity of supply at equilibrium level.

P₀ = $4

Q₀ = 61

P₁ = $6.2093

Q₁ = 67.7442

% change in quantity = [ (Q_1 - Q_0) / Q_0 ] * 100

% change in quantity = 11.05607%

% change in price = [ (P_1 - P_0) / P_0 ] * 100

% change in price = 55.2325%

Price Elasticity of Supply (PES):

PES  = % change in quantity / % change in price

PES = 11.05607% / 55.2325%

PES = 0.20
