Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Pizzas and burgers are substitutes. This implies that they are used in place of each other. If the price of pizza increases, its quantity demanded will decrease. This will be indicated by an upward movement to the left on the same demand curve.

The consumers will prefer a cheaper substitute, as a result, the demand for burgers will increase. This will be indicated by a rightward shift in the demand curve for burgers.

Information on Wolfen Company's direct labor costs for the month of January follows: Actual direct labor rate $5.00 Standard dir

xeze [42]

Answer:

Standard Rate = $ 5.65

Explanation:

Wolfen Company

Actual direct labor rate $5.00

Standard direct labor hours allowed 11,000

Actual direct labor hours 10,000

Direct labor rate favorable $6,500

Using formula to find the unknown figure

Direct Labor Rate variance = Actual Hours ( Standard Rate-Actual Rate)

$6,500= 10,000( Standard Rate-5)

$6,500/10,000 = (Standard Rate-5)

0.65+ 5=Standard Rate

Standard Rate=5+0.65= $ 5.65

We can check by putting it in another formula

Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours * standard rate)-(actual hours* actual rate)

$6,500=(10,000*Standard Rate)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (10,000*5.65)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (56,500)-( 50,000 )

$6,500=$6,500 (favorable) when standard price is higher than actual price

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The Answer is B. Quantitative data

Explanation:

The testing on the golf club, determined a improvement in the driving distance and this was measured numerically and showed in form of a percentage in comparison with average measurements.

When the information is presented with numerical data support, we can say its a quantitative data, because it tells us "how much?".

When the information is presented just with adjetives, telling us about the performance its a qualitative data, because it tell us "how things happened?"

A control variable is the data that is going to modified in order to see changes is the independent variable. In this case, the control variable could be the weight of the club (assumption), and the independent variable the driving distance data(not percentage).
