4. Labour Institutions Act(10MKS)

lord [1]

Answer:

Reduce discrimination.
Reduce exploitation.
Reduce inequality/ poverty.
Increase productivity.
Economic growth.

Explanation:

It is necessary for the government to regulate wages because some companies might take advantage of little regulation to get away with many unjust and unethical actions as they chase profits or due to personal bias.

Without government regulation, there would be wage disparity between races and genders so regulation reduces that. Exploitation will also be reduced because companies will not take advantage of unemployment rates to make workers overwork themselves to keep their jobs.

Regulated wages will reduce inequality in social classes as well as poverty rates as people will be paid closer to what they deserve.

Regulated wages will also lead to improved productivity as people will be more encouraged when they are working knowing they are getting paid appropriately so they will work harder.

With people being paid appropriately, they will be able to afford more goods and invest more savings which will lead to growth in the economy.

Inventory records for Marvin Company revealed the following: Date Num of units unit cost Mar. 1 Beginning Inventory 1000 7.20 Ma

swat32

Answer:

Ending inventory= $5,040

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning Inventory= 1000 units for $7.20

Mar. 10: Purchase= 600 units for $7.25

Mar. 16: Purchase= 800 units for $7.30

Mar. 23: Purchase= 600 units for $7.35

Marvin sold 2,300 units.

Under the LIFO inventory method, the ending inventory cost is calculated using the first units incorporated to inventory.

Ending inventory in units= total units - units sold

Ending inventory in units= 3,000 - 2,300= 700 units

Ending inventory= 700*7.2= $5,040

Variable manufacturing overhead incurred was $245,000. Fixed manufacturing overhead incurred was $373,000. Actual machine-hours

steposvetlana [31]

Before information shows is the correct and complete question.

The Lopez Company use a standard costing in its manufacturing plant for the auto part. The standard cost of particular auto part based on a denominator level of a 4.000 output unit per year. included 6 machine-hours of variable manufacturing overhead at $8 per hour and 6 machine-hours of fixed manufacturing overhead at $15 per hour.

Actual output produced was 4.400 units.

Variable manufacturing overhead incurred was $245.000.

Fixed manufacturing overhead incurred was $373.000.

Actual machine-hours were 28.400.

Prepare the analysis of all variable manufacturing overhead and fixed manufacturing overhead variances.

Additional diagram attached to this question is displayed in the first image below.

Answer:

Explanation:

By using a columnar method, the analysis of all the variance & fixed manufacturing overhead varaince can be computed as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead analysis:

Actual cost Incurred: ║ Actual input × Budgeted ║ Allocated: Budgeted

Actual input × Actual rate Input for actual output

rate × Budgeted rate

245000 28400×$8.00 = 227200 (4400×6hrs×$8)

= 211,200

17800 U 16800 U

Spending Variance Efficiency Variance

33800 U

Flexible Budget Variance

Hence;

The spending Variance = $17,800 U

Efficiency Variance = $16,000 U

Flexible Budget Varaince = $33800 U

where; F = Favourable & U = Unfavourable

<u>For the fixed Manufacturing Overhead:</u>

Actual cost Incurred: ║ Flexible Budget Lump ║ Allocated: Budgeted

Actual input × Actual sum regardless of the Input for actual output

rate output level × Budgeted rate

373000 4000×6hrs×15 = 360000 (4400×6hrs×$15)

= 396000

13000 U 36000 F

Spending Variance/ Production-Volume

Flexible budgeted variance Variance

23000 F

Over allocated fixed

Overhead

Hence;

The spending Variance = $13000 U

The production Volume Variance = $36,000 F

Over allocated fixed overhead = $23000 F

where; F = Favourable & U = Unfavourable

NOTE: To have a better view of the above computation in a table format, refer to the second and the third diagram in the image below.

Eric's textbook costs $90, and he can resell it in one year's time for $45. if the annual interest rate is 10%, then the present

Archy [21]

<span>$41 Given a discount rate, the present value (PV) of money you expect to receive in the future (FV) at a specified interest rate (R) for a specified number of periods (N) is PV = FV/(1+R)^N So let's plug in the known values and solve. PV = 45/(1+0.10)^1 PV = 45/(1.10)^1 PV = 45/1.10 PV = 40.90909091 Rounding to the nearest dollar gives $41</span>
