Sthilaire Corporation is working on its direct labor budget for the next two months. Each unit of output requires 0.52 direct la

bor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 1,700 units in April and 1,600 units in May. The company guarantees its direct labor workers a 40-hour paid work week. With the number of workers currently employed, that means that the company is committed to paying its direct labor work force for at least 960 hours in total each month even if there is not enough work to keep them busy. Required: Prepare the direct labor budget for the next two months. (Round "labor-hours per unit" & "labor cost per hour" answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each unit of output requires 0.52 direct labor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 1,700 units in April and 1,600 units in May. The company is committed to paying its direct labor workforce for at least 960 hours a month.

We need to calculate the total number of hours required each month.

April:

Direct labor hours= 1,700 units* 0.52= 884 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640

May:

Direct labor hours= 1,600 units* 0.52= 832 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640

Answer:

1. $11,000 each year

2. $23,000 and $18,400

3. $15,000 and $12,500

Explanation:

The calculation of the depreciation expense for the 2021 and 2022 is shown below:

1. Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated service life)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ (10 years)

= ($110,000) ÷ (10 years)  

= $11,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life  i.e for 2021 also the same depreciation is applied i.e $11,000

2. Double-declining balance method:

First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is

= One ÷ estimated service life

= 1 ÷ 10

= 10%

Now the rate is double So, 20%

In year 1, the original cost is $115,000, so the depreciation is $23,000 after applying the 20% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $(115,000 - $23,000) × 20% = $18,400

3. Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ ($220,000 units)

= ($110,000) ÷ (220,000 units)  

= $0.5 per units

For 2021, it would be

= Production units in 2021 year × depreciation per unit

= 30,000 units × $0.5

= $15,000

Now for the 2022, it would be  

= Production units in 2022 year × depreciation per unit

= 25,000 units × $0.5

= $12,500

Economists differ in their views of the role of the government in promoting economic growth. At the very least, the government s
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Lend support to the invisible hand by maintaining property rights and political stability .

Explanation:

The absence of the government in legislative tasks related to the market is, therefore, one of the main bases of the economic theory developed by Adam Smith throughout his bibliographical work. For Smith, the leaders must deal with other areas of control more focused on defense or justice, leaving the market to its free operation.

The invisible hand presupposes that there is an inertia by which the market and its self-regulation leads individuals to make the best decisions for the majority of the population to achieve well-being. In other words, it is a kind of automatic control mechanism that compensates the actions taken as a whole, regulating social conformations.

Therefore, it is assumed that the self-regulation facilitated to the markets helps to achieve an optimal market. To do this, individuals must behave in such a way that they can act without state mediation and in pursuit of their own interest.

The metaphor of the invisible hand also supposes that individuals are encouraged or held back to produce or not to follow the level of prices that exist in the market. Prices and profits are sufficient indicative to know when to participate in the market or not. Basically, if there is profit in a market niche, this supposes a stimulus for production, while losses lead individuals to quit.
