The phrases that describes money the best would be: Medium of exchange
Before money were made, in order to obtain a product that we don't own, we need to exchange it with another product that we own. This system is commonly known as barter.
With money, we can obtain a product that we don't own without exchanging it with anything. This function is the reason why money is called medium of exchange
Answer:
a. $17.44 per hour
b. $43,600 ; $104,640
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Single plantwide overhead rate equals to
= Total Overhead Amount ÷ Budgeted Direct Labor Hours
where,
Total overhead amount is
= $625,000 + $900,000 + $105,000 + $175,000 + $300,000 + $75,000
= $2,180,000
And, the budgeted direct labor hours is 125,000
So, the overhead rate is
= $2,180,000 ÷ 125,000
= $17.44 per hour
2. Now the overhead cost is
For Deluxe model
= 2,500 direct labor hours × $17.44 per hour
= $43,600
For basic model
= 6,000 direct labor hours × $17.44 per hour
= $104,640
Answer:
a. $2,020 Favorable
Explanation:
The computation of spending variance for direct materials in April is shown below:-
For computing the spending variance for direct materials in April first we need to find out the actual price per unit which is here below:-
Actual price per unit = Actual direct material ÷ Actual units purchased
= $49,086 ÷ $5,060
= $9.70
Spending variance for direct materials in April = (Actual price per unit - Standard price per unit) × Actual quantity
= ($9.70 - $10.10) × 5,060
= -$0.4 × 5,060
= $2,024 Favorable
which is closest to $2,020 Favorable.
Answer:
The normal balance of liabilities is a credit.
Explanation:
In the double entry system one account must be debited in order for the other to be credited.
There are different balances for each account. For the accounts with normal credit balance a credit causes it to increase while a debit decreases it.
For accounts with negative balance a credit reduces its balance while a debit increases its balance.
- Asset: Debit
- Expense: Debit
- Dividends: Debit
- Liability: Credit
- Owner’s Equity: Credit
- Revenue: Credit
- Retained Earnings: Credit
Liabilities are debt owed by a business. When payment is given out to settle a debt (a debit) it reduces to amount a business owes.
If more loans are collected (a credit) the liability figure increases.
So liability has a normal credit balance
