Answer:
105
Explanation:
base year = 2016
cost of market basket of goods in base year = $2,000
CPI for base year = 100
year 2018
cost of market basket of goods in 2018 = $2,100
CPI for 2018 = (cost of basket of goods in 2018 / cost of basket of goods in base year) x 100 = ($2,100 / $2,000) x 100 = 105
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
This is called deflation. 
Explanation:
Deflation refers to the situation when there is a decline in the general price level, it causes the economy to slow down. It generally happens because of a reduction in the money supply.  
The nominal costs of goods and services, labor, capital, etc. decline. But the relative prices, generally remain the same. '
The decline in price is not good for everyone and adversely affects producers.  It is also harmful to borrowers. The decline in the price level increases the purchasing power of money. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
The Italian government can increase the efficiency of its effluent system by becoming creating a law that makes it illegal to smoke in smoke-free zones.
<h3>What is an Effluent?</h3>
This refers to wastes that are secreted or released into the air, water, or underground channels.
Examples of effluents are:
- Liquid factory waste

Answer: Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625
Explanation:
The question is incomplete the high and low methods requires us to use high and low level of activity together with the corresponding total costs at each level to determine the variable cost per unit. we will provide assumed total costs and nursing hours in order to show how high and low method is used to predict total costs for the next period.
Assume the following were total costs and corresponding nursing hours for the previous 3 months
Total cost                Hours
$560000             30000 hours
$400000             220000 hours
$225000             10000 hours
calculating Variable cost using high and low method
Variable cost per unit  = (high cost - low cost)/high hour - low hours)
Variable Cost Per unit =  (840000 - 225000)/ (30000 - 10000) = 16.75
Variable cost per unit = $ 16.75 
Fixed costs = 560000 - (28000 x 16.75) =  560000 - 469000
Fixed costs =  $91000
Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) =Total Fixed cost + Total Variable costs
Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $91000 + (23500 x $16.75)
Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) == $91000 + $393625
 Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625
 
        
             
        
        
        
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
