Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard price= $1.4 per pound

Thrope, Inc. purchased 2,400 pounds of direct material for $1.30 per pound.

Thrope used 1,200 pounds in production while the standard pounds allowed for actual production was 900.

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (1.4 - 1.3)*2,400= $240 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (900 - 1,200)*1.4= $420 favorable

Answer:

<em>Price variance  </em><em> $</em><em>240  Favorable</em>

Quantity variance   $ 420  unfavourable

Explanation:

<em>A material price variance occurs where materials are purchased at a price either lower or higher than the standard price. A favorable variance is recorded where the actual total cost of materials is lower that the standard cost. While an adverse variance implies the opposite. </em>

                                                                                    $

2,400 pounds should have cost (2400×$1.40) =   3360

but did cost (actual cost )          = (2400×$1.30) =   <u>3120 </u>

<em>Price variance  </em><em>                                                          </em><u><em>240  Favorable</em></u>

Quantity variance

<em>It is determined by the difference between the actual and standard quantity of material for the actual level of output multiplied by the the standard price  </em>

                                                                          Pounds

standard allowed production                          900

Actual quantity used                                        <u>1,200</u>

Difference                                                           300

Standard price                                               × <u>$1.40</u>

Quantity variance                                             $<u>420   unfavourable </u>

Managerial economist estimates the price-quantity relationship for Textile Company to be p= 40-4q a. At what output rate demand
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

So unit elastic at q = 5

inelastic above 5

and elastic below 5

Explanation:

The elasticity is determianted by the marginal revenue.

Our first goal is to find the marginal revenue function

p = 40 - 4q

total revenue(TR)  =  quantity times price

q x (40 - 4q) = -4q^2 +40q

marginal revenue TR(q)/d(q)  = -8q + 40

Now, with this fuction the economic analisys states that a demand is unit elastic when marginal revenue is zero.

It will be inelastic below zero and elastic above zero

MR will be zero when q = 5

-8(5) + 40 = 0

As quantity increases the demand will be inelastic

JL.53 Bob's Bumpers has a repetitive manufacturing facility in Kentucky that makes automobile bumpers and other auto body parts.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a)

Annual demand = 75000 = D

S = ordering cost/set up cost = $53

d = daily demand = 75000/250 = 300

h = holding cost per unit per year = $25

p = Daily production rate = 320

optimal size of the production run =EPQ = sqrt((2*D*S)/(h*(1-(d/p))))

= sqrt((2*75000*53)/(25*(1-(300/320))))

= 2255.659549 = 2255.66 (Rounded to 2 decimal places)

b)

maximum inventory = EPQ*(1 - (d/p))

= 2255.66*(1 - (300/320))

= 140.97875

Avergae inventory = 140.97875/2 = 70.49

c)

Number of production runs = Annual demand/EPQ = 75000/2255.66 = 33.25

d)

Holding cost with EPQ = 2255.66 = 70.49*25 = 1762.25

With EPQ = 500, maximum inventory = 500*(1 - (300/320)) = 31.25

Holding cost with EPQ = 500, holding cost (31.25/2)*25 = 390.625

Savings = 1762.25 - 390.625 = 1371.625

How do corporations raise money and resources to expand? Select THREE answers.
Vladimir [108]

Correct answer choices are :

A) They request a bank loan.

D) They agree to sell stocks.

E)  They issue bonds.

Explanation:

Also, interest paid on bonds is a tax-deductible business investment for the organization. The problem is that interest payments generally are made on bonds even when no profits are earned. For this reason, a smaller corporation can sometimes raise much capital by issuing bonds.
