Answer:

The answer is $A. $900 U.

Explanation:

We have the: Total overhead variance = Overhead applied - Actual overhead in which:

+ Overhead applied = Standard hours x Overhead application rate = 3,000 x 8 = $24,000;

+ Actual overhead = Variable overhead + fixed overhead = 15,800 + 9,100 = $24,900

=> Total overhead variance = Overhead applied - Actual overhead = 24,000 - 24,900 = 900 Unfavorable as the actual overhead is bigger than the overhead applied ( planned cost is lower than actual cost incurred).

So, the answer is A.

maw [93]

Solution :

Risk management first involves the identification of the potential risk that may be involved. It should focus both on the objectives as well as events that could cause the consequences.

Some of the major risks that can be involved are :

• sudden weather conditions which may not support the flight travel.

• Embargo on fishing by the State or local authority suddenly

• any kind of physical injury to the members of the group

• there may be forest fire around the lake

• technical error that might occur during the course of adventures

The impact for the risk that includes the majuere risk will be very high for all the parameters that can increase the cost by 40%, it can also lead to increase in time by about 20% which can cancel the expedition. . These types of risk will not be covered under any scope.

For the physical risk, the impact will be moderate for the parameters.

Fixed deferred annuity

Fixed deferred annuity is a form of saving investment where interest is paid on the invested amount at a rate set by the investment company and defined in the contract , and the interest can be deferred into the future till a withdrawal is made from the annuity contract.

Taxes are not paid but deferred until withdrawal which allows the opportunity to  control when to pay taxes , a good investment sense for long term investment.

Consumer surplus is A. the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and marginal benefit. B. the differ
belka [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and the price the consumer actually pays.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus arises from the law of diminishing returns. This means that the first unit to acquire we value it highly but as we acquire additional units our valuation falls. However, the price we pay for any unit is always the same: the market price. In this way, we enjoy a positive surplus of the first units we acquire until we reach the last one in which the surplus will be zero.

In graphic terms, consumer surplus is measured as the area below the market demand curve and above the price line. The demand curve measures the amount consumers are willing to pay for each unit consumed. Then, the total area below the demand curve reflects the total utility of consumption of the good or service. If the price we pay for each unit is subtracted from this area, the consumer surplus is obtained.
