Answer:
Under allocation= 1,000 underallocated
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Dukes Corporation used a predetermined overhead rate this year of $2 per direct labor-hour, based on an estimate of 20,000 direct labor-hours to be worked during the year. Actual costs and activity during the year were: Actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred $ 38,000 Actual direct labor-hours worked 18,500
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 2*18,500= $37,000
Real overhead= 38,000
Over/under allocation= real MOH - allocated MOH
Under allocation= 38,000 - 37,000= 1,000 underallocated

Flagon Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors announced that it will pay a $1 million dividend in three months on this date - Declaration Date On the declaration date, the firm announces that it will pay dividends. If the company is large, it pays for a press release on a newspaper, or even, on TV.
Transcontinental Corp. actually sent the dividend checks to stockholders on this date - Payment Date.
Self-explanatory, this is the date on which checks are sent to shareholders who were recorded eligible for payment on the record-date.
Flagon Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors declared that whoever is listed as the owner of the stock on this date will receive the dividend for this year - Holder-of-Record date.
Also known as the record date, on this date, the firm determines which shareholders will receive the dividend.
Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors set this date as the date on which the right to the current dividend no longer accompanies the stock - Ex-Dividend Date.
On this date, the value of the next dividend payment is substracted from the stock price. The Ex-Dividend Date is usually the day before the Record-Date, because shareholders that were found uneligible for dividend payment are now the holders of ex-dividend stocks.

Answer:
Since 0.33 + 0.75 = 1.08 is greater than one, this production function therefore exhibits increasing returns to scale.
Explanation:
From the question, we have the following restated equation:
Where q is the output, and L and K are inputs
To determine the types of returns to scale, we increase each of L and K inputs by constant amount c as follows:
We can now solve as follows;
Since 0.33 + 0.75 = 1.08 is greater than one, this production function therefore exhibits increasing returns to scale.
Answer:
The investment advisory firm which employs the investment adviser representative (IAR).
Explanation:
FINRA's rules specifically state that before any transaction, the IAR must have a signed power of attorney. The IAR cannot start trading or operating with the client's money until he/she has received a signed written power of attorney from the client. Only after the signed power of attorney has been given tot eh IAR, can he/she act on discretionary basis.
If the IAR is not a registered broker-dealer, then NASAA rules state that oral agreements are valid for up to 10 business days, but the IAR must have a written authorization after that time expires. I.e. the IAR could buy the stocks, but he/she was not authorized to sell them. So any loss is responsibility of the firm that employs the IAR.
