Hardigree Corporation makes a product that has the following direct labor standards: Standard direct labor-hours 0.3 hours per u

djyliett [7]

Answer:

4,140 U

Explanation:

According to the scenario, calculation of the given data are as follows,

Actual Hours = 2,820 hours

Standard rate = $23 per hour

Standard direct labor hour = 0.3 hours

We can calculate labor efficiency variance by using following formula,

Labor Efficiency Variance = Actual hours standard cost - Standard cost

Where, Actual hours standard Cost = Actual hours × Standard rate

= 2,820 × 23

= 64,860

Standard Cost (8,800 units) = Standard hours (8,800 units) × Standard rate

= (8,800 × 0.3) × 23

= 60,720

Hence, by putting the value in the formula, we get

Labor Efficiency Variance = 64,860 - 60,720

= 4,140 U

ou have just purchased a four-month, $630,000 negotiable CD, which will pay a 4.5 percent annual interest rate. a. If the market

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

first will need to calculate the Fv future value of this CD

Fv = Pv ( 1 + R )^n n = 4 /12 = 0.333333, r, rate = 4.5/100 = 0.045

Fv = $ 630000 ( 1+ 0.045)^0.33333 = $ 639311.69

a) the current value at 5 % Pv = Fv / ( 1+r)ⁿ

Pv = $ 639311.69 / ( 1.05)^0.3333 = $ 628998.41

b) the current price at 4.25% = $ 639311.69 / ( 1.0425)^0.3333 = $ 630503.20
