Auditory Company, which applies overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period

Molodets [167]

Answer:

Fixed overhead variance= $18,000 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual units produced: 12,000

Actual fixed overhead incurred: $750,000

Standard fixed overhead rate: $16 per hour

Budgeted fixed overhead: $740,000

Planned level of machine-hour activity: 45,000

Auditory estimates four hours to manufacture a completed unit.

First, we need to calculate the standard fixed costs for the period:

Allocated overhead= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated overhead= 16* (12,000*4)= $768,000

Actual overhead= 750,000

Fixed overhead variance= actual - allocated

Fixed overhead variance= 750,000 - 768,000= $18,000 favorable

A Nash equilibrium is a situation in which all players have put into practice, and know that they have done so, a strategy that maximizes their earnings given the strategies of others. Consequently, no player has any incentive to individually modify their strategy.

It is important to keep in mind that a Nash equilibrium does not imply that the best joint result for the participants is achieved, but only the best result for each of them considered individually. It is perfectly possible that the result would be better for everyone if, in some way, the players coordinated their action.

In economic terms, it is a kind of imperfect balance of competition that describes the situation of several companies competing for the market of the same good and who can choose how much to produce to try to maximize their profit.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Standard Overhead rate is $1.25 per Direct labor hours

Explanation:

Total variable cost (2000 unit * $2.50) = $5,000

Total fixed cost = <u>$5,000</u>

Estimated Overhead cost = <u>$10,000</u>

<u />

Estimated Direct labor hour = 2000 unit * 4 hours = 8,000 hours

Standard Overhead rate = Estimated overhead cost / Estimated Direct labor hour

Standard Overhead rate = $10,000 / 8,000 hours

Standard Overhead rate = $1.25 per Direct labor hours
