Answer:

6.67   years

Explanation:

The number of years for the firm to reach the desired value of $1.2 million can determined using the  nper formula in excel as below:

=nper(rate,pmt,pv,-fv)

rate  is the interest rate earns by the fund at 10% per year

pmt is the addition to the fund in each year which is $50,000

pv is the current amount in the fund which is $400,000

fv is the desired value of $1.2 million

=nper(10%,50000,400000,-1200000)=  6.67  years

It would take  6.67   years for the sinking fund to reach the desired value of $1,200,000

Levine Inc., which produces a single product, has prepared the following standard cost sheet for one unit of the product. Direct
raketka [301]

Answer:

Standard material quantity allowed = 270 units × 8 pounds

                                                          = 2,160

Material Price variance = Actual Quantity (Standard price - Actual price)

                                      = 2,100 (3.90 - 4.00)

                                      = 210 Unfavorable

Material Qty variance = Standard price (Standard quantity - Actual quantity)

                                    = 3.90 (2,160 - 2,100 )

                                    = 234 Favorable

Total Material Variance:

= (Standard quantity × Standard price) - (Actual Quantity × Actual price)

= (2,160 × 3.90) - (2,100 × 4)

= 24 Favorable

Labour rate variance = Actual hours (Standard rate - Actual rate)

                                   = 1390(14 -13.80 )

                                   = 278 Favorable

Labor efficiency variance = Standard rate (Standard hours-Actual hours)

                                          = 14 (1350 -1390)

                                          = 560 Unfavorable

Total Labour cost variance:

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

= (1350 × 14) - (1390 × 13.80)

= 282 Unfavorable
