Answer:

Over-applied overheads=  $54,800.00

Explanation:

<em>Overheads are charged to units produced by the means of using an estimated overhead absorption rate. This rate is computed using budgeted overhead and budgeted activity level.</em>

<em>As a result of this, overhead charged to total units product might be over or under absorbed compared to the actual amount incurred</em>.

Overhead absorption rate = budgeted Overhead/Budgeted labour hours

                                           = $360,000/30,000 direct labour hour

                                            <em>= $12 per hour</em>

<em>Absorbed overhead= OAR× actual labour hours</em>

                                 =  12×  36,000

                                     =  432,000.00

<em>Over absorbed(applied) overhea</em>d = is the difference between actual overhead and absorbed

                                $432,000.00 -  $377,200

                               Over-applied overheads=  $54,800.00

(3) To calculate the cost of producing one watch if the company produced 110,000 watches in 2018

Sales / Numbers of watches produced

= 269,500 / 110,000

= $2,45

Workings of schedule of cost of Goods Manufactured

Utilities =0.65 × 9,200 = 5,980

Insurance = 0.7 × 2,500 = 1,750

Rent Expense = 0.9 × 27,000 = 24,300

Factory equipment depreciation = Cost - Salvage value / Number of years

= 50,000 - 5,000 / 5

= 45,000 /5

= 9,000

Workings of cost of Goods sold

Cost of good sold = Beginning finished good inventory + Cost of Good Manufactured - Ending finished good inventory

= 3,750 + 191,830

= 195,580

Workings of income statement

Utilities = 0.35 × 9,200 = 3,220

Insurance= 0.3 × 2,500 = 750

Selling Expense = 0.35 × 34,700 = 12,145

Administrative expense = 0.3 × 30,900 = 9,270

10% of rent expense allocated to selling & Administrative

Selling = 0.1 × 34,700 = 3,470

Administrative = 0.1 × 30,900 = 3,090

Income taxes = 0.21 × 27,275 = 5,727.75

The cross-price elasticity of demand measures the absolute change in the quantity demanded of one good divided by the absolute c
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good divided by the percentage change in the price of another good.

Explanation:

Demand cross-elasticity is the measure of the relative change in the quantity demanded for a good or service (A) as a function of a certain relative change in the price of another good or service (B) considered to be a substitute for or complementary to the first (A). For example, how much would increase the amount of margarine demanded if there was an increase in the price of butter. The formula for calculating the cross elasticity of demand consists in dividing the relative change in the quantity demanded of a good divided by the relative change in the price of the substitute good.

How can exchange rates change to reduce the wage differential between countries​
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The exchange rate is the value for which one currency can be exchanged for another. Thus, for example, 20 Mexican pesos are needed to acquire an American dollar.

Technically, it could happen that a country changes its exchange rate with respect to a hard currency (such as the Dollar or the Euro) through fixed exchange rates, in order to increase the value of the salaries of its citizens, measured in international currencies. For example, if the Mexican government fixed a parity between the dollar and the peso of value 1 to 1, the minimum wage of Mexicans would go from being worth $ 215 to multiplying by 20, that is, to $ 4,300.

Now, in practice, this situation is practically impossible, since it would imply a monetary modification in the country that makes the adjustment, since otherwise it would imply an unprecedented inflationary peak.
