Answer:
So a favorable material price variance might be more than offset by an adverse usage variance
Explanation:
<em>Material price variance</em>
<em>A material price variance occurs where materials are purchased at a price either lower or higher than the standard price. </em>A favourable variance is recorded where the actual total cost of materials of a given quantity is lower that the standard cost. While an adverse variance implies the opposite
<em>Material usage variance</em>
<em>A material usage variance occurs when the standard quantity required to active a particular level of production is higher or lower than than the actual actual quantity used.</em> A favorable variance would mean than less quantity of materials were used than the standard to achieve a given output level. And an adverse variance would mean the opposite
<em>Relationship between Usage variance and Price variance</em>
Where savings are made from purchase of cheap and inferior quality materials these might lead to an adverse usage variance by a greater value .This is so because workers might need to use a larger quantity ( more than the standard required) of a low-quality materials to achieve production.
So a favourable material price variance might be more than offset by an adverse usage variance
Answer: Honda could get a lot of notice as innovative company
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Honda's new electric unicycle is very unique and that it is steered by the rider leaning, computer stabilized through control of its single crabbing wheel.
It also has a range of about 3 miles at 3 miles per hour, takes n hour to recharge and only weighs 25 pounds, so it can be carried while the cost would be about $2000.
The only good reason to produce this would be that people and every other organization will notice Hinds as being a company that is innovative. This will be advantageous for its brand.
Answer:
The correct answer is Double-declining-balance. The highest net income in year 2 is 6000.
This higher net income don´t mean the machine was used more efficiently under this depreciation method.
Explanation:
In the file attached you will find a depreciation schedule for each of the alternative methods.
Each method need different calculus.
Straight-line
depreciation expense=(Original Value -Residual Value)/Useful life=
depreciation expense=4400
Units-of-production
estimated productive life 10000
Units of Production Rate=(Original Value -Residual Value)/estimated productive life=2,2
Double-declining-balance.
Depreciation rate = 1/useful life *100= 20,00%
Answer:
Given that Program instructions consists of:
- 60% floating point multiply
- 20% floating point divide
- 20% other instructions
Amdahl's law states that:
Execution time affected by improvement = (Execution time after improvement/ Amount of improvement) + (Execution time unaffected)
Assuming initially that floating point multiply, divide and other instructions have same clocks per instruction (CPI).
Part (a)
New execution time after improvement with multiply = (60) / 8 + (20 + 20) = 47.5
New execution time after improvement with Divide = (20) / 3 + (60 + 20) = 86.67
New system should be 4x faster which means new execution time should be below = 100/ 4 = 25.
Therefore, Management's goal can NOT be achieved by making the improvement with multiply or divide alone.
Part (b)
New execution time after improvement with multiply and divide = (60 / 8) + (20 / 3) + 20 = 34.17
Speed up = execution time of original machine / Execution time of new machine = (100 / 34.17) = 2.93
Therefore, new machine is 2.93 times faster than original machine.
Answer:
Tax Value = 107.5 - 100 = 7.5
i'm not sure about the last portion
