Answer:

if the FED wants to increase interest rates, it will generally engage in a contractionary monetary policy. This means that it will decrease the money supply in the economy. A contractionary monetary policy takes place when the FED starts to sell US securities and that way it will take away money from the economy. But in order to make more people want to purchase the securities, it will generally increase the interest rates.

entry to adjust against COGS

Cost of Goods of sold 15,000 debit

Factory overhead 15,000 credit

Explanation:

$\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate$

1,600,000 / 400,000 = $4 per machine hours

Actual machine hours 390,0000

applied overhead:

actual cost driver x rate per driver

390,000 x $4 = 1,560.000‬ applied overhead

Actual overhead 1,575,000

Viktor [21]

Answer:

His overtime wage = $18.75

Total wages for one day = $118.75

Explanation:

Given,

He worked from - 9:00 am (Internationally - 9:00)

He stopped at - 7:00 pm (Internationally - 19:00)

Therefore, he worked for = (19:00 - 9:00) = 10 hours

Again,

He had unpaid 45 minute lunch break

He had unpaid 15 minute break

Total unpaid time = (45 + 15) minutes = 1 hour.

Therefore, he will be paid for = 9 hours

Again,

His normal wage = $12.50 per hour

<em>His overtime wage = 1.5 times of his normal salary = $12.50*1.5 = $18.75</em>

Since he worked more than 8 hours, he worked 1 overtime hour. Therefore,

(8 hours x $12.50) + (1 hour x $18.75) = $118.75
