denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Unemployment rate = 3.6%

Explanation:

Unemployment is the number of people who are willing to work and are actively seeking work but are unable to find it. The unemployment rate is the unemployed / total number of people in the labor force x 100.

In the above scenario, the unemployed is 3 million people. The others are either already employed, unavailable, unwilling or not seeking work.

The labour force comprises of those who are employed and unemployed, that is 80million + 3million = 83 million.

Hence, unemployment rate = (3/83) x 100 = 3.6%

OLEGan [10]

Complete question:

You have just been hired by SecuriDoor Corporation, the manufacturer of a revolutionary new garage door opening device. The president has asked that you review the company’s costing system and “do what you can to help us get better control of our manufacturing overhead costs.” You find that the company has never used a flexible budget, and you suggest that preparing such a budget would be an excellent first step in overhead planning and control.

      After much effort and analysis, you determined the following cost formulas and gathered the following actual cost data for April:

                                          Actual Cost in April

 Utilities    $16,700 plus $.14 per machine-hour      $ 21,020    

 Maintenance   $38,300 plus $1.50 per machine-hour   $ 59,100    

 Supplies      $.40 per machine-hour          $ 7,000    

 Indirect labor  $94,700 plus $1.80 per machine-hour   $ 128,000    

 Depreciation   $68,400    $ 70,100  

During March, the company worked 16,000 machine-hours and produced 10,000 units. The company had originally planned to work 18,000 machine-hours during March.

Astair, Inc. reported sales of $6,000,000 for the month and incurred variable expenses totaling $4,600,000 and fixed expenses to
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 78,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed cost= $940,000

Total contribution margin= (6,000,000 - 4,600,000)= $1,400,000

Unitary contribution margin= 1,400,000 / 70,000= $20

Desired profit= $620,000

<u>To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (940,000 + 620,000) / 20

Break-even point in units= 78,000
