In the problem, the given data is the mean and the variance. Now to solve this problem, we must remember that the formula for variance is:

Variance = s^2

Where s is equivalent to the standard deviation, therefore:

s = sqrt (Variance)

Calculating for the value of the standard deviation given Variance = 184:

s = sqrt  (184)

s = 13.56 %                          (ANSWER)

Cheyenne Corp. incurred the following costs while manufacturing its product.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

$347,400

Explanation:

Cost of goods manufactured = Material used in product + Labor costs of assembly line workers + Factory overheads (ie Depreciation on plant+ Property taxes on plant + Factory supplies used) + Opening WIP - Closing WIP

Cost of goods manufactured = $129,100 + $111,300 + $64,600 + $16,000 + $28,700 + $14,500 - $16,800

Cost of goods manufactured = $347,400

Information on Wolfen Company's direct labor costs for the month of January follows: Actual direct labor rate $5.00 Standard dir
xeze [42]

Answer:

Standard Rate = $ 5.65

Explanation:

Wolfen Company

Actual direct labor rate $5.00

Standard direct labor hours allowed 11,000

Actual direct labor hours 10,000

Direct labor rate favorable $6,500

Using formula to find the unknown figure

Direct Labor Rate variance =   Actual Hours ( Standard Rate-Actual Rate)

$6,500= 10,000( Standard Rate-5)

$6,500/10,000 =  (Standard Rate-5)

0.65+ 5=Standard Rate

Standard Rate=5+0.65= $ 5.65

We can check by putting it in another formula

Direct Labor Rate variance=  (actual hours * standard rate)-(actual hours* actual rate)

$6,500=(10,000*Standard Rate)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (10,000*5.65)-( 10,000 *5.0)

$6,500= (56,500)-( 50,000 )

$6,500=$6,500  (favorable) when standard price is higher than actual price

Calculation

100,0000-20,000-15,000 = 65,000 $.
