A. The size of the factory is fixed.

The number of workers is also not fixed, but the size of the factory is because you cant just get up and move your business over night, it costs money and is a lot of work.

Mitch is a director and officer of Numero Uno, Inc. Mitch makes a marketing decision that results in a dramatic decrease in prof
Stells [14]

Answer:

As long as Mitch acted in good faith and tried to make the best possible decision regarding all available information, and his decision was something that any other person could have made, his mistake has to be considered a bad or negative business judgement (business judgement rule). He thought that his actions would benefit the corporation, but he was wrong and the corporation lost money. That types of mistakes are considered normal and just that, mistakes that anyone can make.

In regards with the second issue, that Mitch is a shareholder and a director of a firm that will directly compete with Numero Uno, he must inform the board about this and resign to either Numero Uno or One of a Kind.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (17.7 - 17.8)*7,600

Direct labor rate variance= $760 unfavorable

Actual rate= 135,280/7,600= $17.8

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (4*1,800 - 7,600)*17.7

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $7,080 unfavorable
