Answer:

a. Determine the standard cost per unit for direct materials and direct labor.

standard direct labor rate = $20 x 30/60 minutes = $10 per faucet

standard direct materials rate = $1.80 x 2.5 lbs = $4.50 per faucet

b. Determine the direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance.

direct materials price variance = (actual price x actual quantity) - (standard price x actual quantity) = ($1.95 x 13,000) - ($1.80 x 12,500) = $25,350 - $22,500 = $2,850 UNFAVORABLE

direct materials quantity variance = (standard price x actual quantity) -(standard price x standard quantity) = ($1.80 x 13,000) - ($1.80 x 12,500) = $23,400 - $22,500 = $900 UNFAVORABLE

total direct materials variance = direct materials price variance + direct materials quantity variance = $2,850 + $900 = $3,750 UNFAVORABLE

mojhsa [17]

Answer: 0.1282

Explanation:

Total number of possible outcome( total candidates) = 13

Total number of men = 13 - 8 = 5

Total number of women = 8

Number of candidates to be selected = 2

Find the probability that both are men :

Probability of 1st candidate being a male = required outcome ÷ total possible outcome = 5/13

Probability of second candidate being a male, means we now have 4 men left and a total of 12 = 4/12

Therefore, P = (5/13) × (4/12)

P = (5/13) ×(1/3) = 5/39 = 0.1282

Answer:

moral hazard

Explanation:

Banks reduce the risk of moral hazard when they monitor and supervise how their clients are using the loans and credits made to them.

Some types of credits do not require any type of monitoring or control, e.g. a credit card which a client can use basically however he/she wants to. But other types of credit that are taken for purchasing assets, e.g. a mortgage, must be used by the bank's client to specifically carryout the intended activity.

In economics, moral hazard refers to the tendency that an economic party can engage in unusually risky activities because the capital (money) that they are investing is not theirs and the negative effects of a potential loss will be suffered most by other parties.

Answer:  b. ​Economies of Scope

Explanation:

Economies of Scope refers to a situation where a company is able to reduce the cost of producing two or more goods by combining their production thereby leading to savings in the production process.

Economies of Scope in effect points out that there are some goods that when produced in tandem with another, lead to a cost reduction which means that its savings is <em>based on variety</em>.

Goods that usually achieve Economies of Scope are goods that are compliments, produced by similar methods or use similar inputs for production.

Firm A merging with Firm B produced the 5 radios and batteries cheaper so the new company is experiencing Economies of Scope.
