Answer:

a. Customer A.

Explanation:

operating profit = EBIT

in this case, the company allocates fixed operating costs equally, which is incorrect since the sales volumes are very different. Fixed operating costs should be allocated proportional to the amount of units sold:

total fixed operating costs = ($30,000 x 4) + ($20,000 x 4) + ($10,000 x 4) = $240,000

total sales = 10,000 + 20,000 + 35,000 + 50,000 = 115,000 units

fixed operating costs per unit = $240,000 / 115,000 = $2.08696 per unit

                                               A                B                   C                D

units sold                        10,000         20,000        35,000        50,000

sales                               $100,000     $150,000    $200,000   $250,000

total variable costs        $75,000       $105,000    $125,000    $155,000

allocated fixed costs     $20,869       $41,739       $73,044       $104,348

EBIT per customer         $4,131            $3,261        $1,956         -$9,348

EBIT per unit                   $0.41            $0.16           $0.06          -$0.19

Since customer A's EBIT per unit sold is higher, then it is the client with the highest customer level operating profit per unit sold.

Dibert Inc. has provided the following data concerning one of the products in its standard cost system.Inputs Standard Quantity
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Actual output = 5100 units

Actual direct labor-hours = 3,380 hours

Actual direct labor cost = $74,698

The  labor rate variance:

= (Actual Hours × Actual rate ) - ( Actual Hours × Standard Rate)

= $74,698 - ( 3,380 Hours × $20.40 Per Hour)

= $74,698 - $68,952

= $5,746 U

Since, the Actual is more than the Standard, the Variance is Unfavorable

Hence, the correct answer is $ 5,746 U
