Answer:
The variance is: $ 0.50 per direct labor hour.
Explanation:
Actual payroll = $117,000/6000h = $19.50 per hour
So, if we compare this value with the standard rate of pay ($20 per direct labor hour) The variance is: $20.00 - $ 19.50 = $0.50 per hour
Answer:
D) The Agency Problem
Explanation:
The agency problem refers to a conflict of interests between the principal and his/her agent. Agents have a fiduciary duty to act on the best interest of their principal, but sometimes agents place their own personal interest before the interests of their principal.
in this case, the brokers should act on behalf of their clients to make them earn the largest possible profits, but instead they focus on convincing them about transactions that increased the broker's profit and not the clients'.
Answer: $8,391.90
Explanation:
So the company borrowed $40,000 from a bank.
They are to pay 7% interest on the note per year for 6 years.
We are to find the annual payments.
7% represents a constant payment schedule per year so we can use an Annuity formula.
Seeing as the Annuity factor has been calculated for us already we don't need to formula though.
The present value of an annuity factor for 6 years at 7% is 4.7665.
Calculating the present value of the annual payment can be done as follows,
= Amount / PVIFA (Present Value Interest Factor for an Annuity)
= 40,000/4.7665
= 8391.90181475
= $8,391.90
The annual payments equal $8,391.90.
Answer:
The principle of market economy dictates that producers and sellers of goods and services will offer them at the highest possible price that consumers are willing to pay for goods or services. When the level of supply meets the level of demand, a natural economic equilibrium is achieved.
Explanation:
Answer:
b. performing an experiment in an economic system.
Explanation:
In contrast to scientific experimentation, whereby connections and differences can be measured between two or more variables. In economics, theory and observation are more difficult than in sciences such as physics due to the difficulty in performing an experiment in an economic system, as human beings' opinions change over time, due to dynamism in human society.
Hence, in this case, the correct answer is option
