Answer:

$1,188 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the total direct labor variance is shown below:

Total Labor Variance is

= Total standard cost - total actual cost

=  (Standard hours ×  Standard rate) - (Actual hours × Actual rate)

= (980 units × 4.5 × $14)  - ($62,928)

= 61,740 - $62,928

= $1,188 unfavorable

Since the actual cost is more than the standard cost which results into unfavorable variance

Answer:

a. Maximin =  19.0

b. Minimax  = 17.6

c. Hurwicz ( 0.40)  = Taiwan

d. Equal likelihood = Taiwan

Explanation:

Remember, we are told to: Note that since the payoff is cost, the maximax criteria becomes minimax and maximin becomes minimax

a) Maximin: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the maximum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the minimum of these maximums. (minimax)

b) Minimax: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the minimum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the maximum of these minimums. (maximin).

c) Hurwicz (0.40): In this method, we add and multiply each payoff value by alpha (0.4).

South Korea = 15.2 (0.4) + 21.7 (0.6) = 19.1 ( remember, in $ millions)

China = 17.6 (0.4) + 19.0 (0.6) = 18.44

Taiwan = 14.9 (0.4) + 19.2 (0.6) = 17.48

Poland = 13.8 (0.4) + 22.5 (0.6) = 19.02

Mexico = 12.5 (0.4) + 25.0 (0.6) = 20

From the values above we select the minimum outcome since the company is looking at saving cost. Which is Taiwan; having the lowest cost of $17.48 million.

d) Using the formula \frac{P_{1} +P_{2}+P_{3}...P_{n}   }{n} where P = payoffs value, n = number of events.

South Korea =  15.2 + 21.7 + 19.1 /3 = 18.66

China = 17.6 + 19.0 + 18.5 /3 = 18.36

Taiwan = 14.9 + 19.2 +17.1 /3 = 17.06

Poland = 13.8 + 22.5 + 16.8 /3 = 17.7

Mexico = 12.5 + 25.0 + 21.2 /3 = 19.56

Taiwan should be selected since it has the lowest cost of $17.06 million.

Most corporations pay quarterly dividends on their common stock rather than annual dividends. Barring any unusual circumstances
user100 [1]

Answer:

The DDM tells us that share price = D*(1+G)/R-G

Dividend = 4.00

G= 0.05

R= 0.15

Price = 4*(1.05)/0.15-0.05

Price= $42

Explanation:

We use the dividend discount method to estimate the current price. We use the growth rate and required return to figure out the current price by using the DDM formula.

Answer:

B. $12,000 is a sunk cost
