Answer:
Efficiency variance =$9,860
unfavorable
Explanation:
Labour efficiency variance is the difference between the actual time taken to achieve a given production output less the standard hours allowed for same multiplied by the standard labour rate
Hours
11,900 units should have take (11,900× 4hrs) 47,600
but did take <u>48,180</u>
Difference 580 unfavorable
Standard hours <u> × $17 </u>
Efficiency variance <u>$9,860
unfavorable</u>
A segment should probably be dropped when the segment has important side effects on other segments cannot cover its own costs. The correct option is B.
<h3>What is a segment margin?</h3>
The profit or loss generated by one component of a business is referred to as segment margin.
Segment margin only considers the segment's revenue and expenses.
By analyzing a company's strengths and weaknesses, segment margin can provide an accurate picture of where it is performing well and where it is not.
If a segment cannot cover its own costs, it should be dropped unless it has significant side effects on other segments.
Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:
Total cash collection= $530,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
<u>Sales:</u>
February $500,000
March $400,000
April $600,000
60% of the credit sales are collected in the month of sale, 30% in the month following sale, and 10% in the second month following the sale.
<u>Cash collection April:</u>
Cash collection credit sales from April= (600,000*0.6)= 360,000
Cash collection credit sales from March= (400,000*0.3)= 120,000
Cash collection credit sales from February= (500,000*0.1)= 50,000
Total cash collection= $530,000
Answer:
Explanation:
When Leverett's exports became less popular, its savings, Y-C-G does not change. Reason being that, it is assumed that Y depends on the amount of capital and labour, consumption depends only on disposable income and government spending is a fixed extrinsic variable.
Since investment depends on interest rate, and Leverett is a small open economy that takes the interest rate as given, thus investment also does not change . Neither does net export change (This is shown by the S-I curve in the attachment).
The decreased popularity of Leverett's exports leads to an inward shift of the net export curve inward. At the new equilibrium,net exports remains unchanged, though the currency has depreciated.
Leverett's trade balance remained the same, despite the fact that its exports are less popular, this is due to the fact that the depreciated currency provides a stimulus to net exports which overcomes the unpopularity of its exports by making them cheaper.
b. Leverett's currency now buys less foreign currency, thus traveling abroad becomes more expensive. This is an instance showing that imports (including foreign travel) have become more expensive- as required to keep net exports unchanged in the case of decreased demand for exports.
Answer:
CPI at the beginning of the year = 192.52
Explanation:
given data
nominal interest rate = 7 percent
real interest rate = 4 percent
CPI = 198.3
to find out
CPI at the beginning of the year
solution
we know that according to fisher equation
1 + r =
....................1
and for smaller values is equivalent to r
r = n - i .....................2
here r is real interest rate and n is nominal interest rate and i is inflation rate
so from equation 2
4 = 7 - inflation rate
inflation rate = 3 percent
so
Rate of inflation = (CPI at the end of the year - CPI at the beginning of the year) × 100 ÷ CPI at the beginning of the year
put here value
3% = (198.3 - CPI at the beginning of the year) × 100 ÷ CPI at the beginning of the year
CPI at the beginning of the year = 
CPI at the beginning of the year = 192.52
