Answer:
a. Production decreased by 4 percent
Explanation:
In 2009, production: 60,000 units
Hours worked per day: 80x8= 640 hours
Productivity= 60,000/640 hours =93.75 units per day
In 2010: production: 76 500 units
Hours worked per day= 85x10= 850 hours
productivity= 76,500/850= 90 units per day
In 2010, production decreased by 3.75 per day. (93.75-90.00)
percentage decrease= (3.75/93.75) x 100=4
In 2010 production decreased by 4 percent
Answer: $65
Explanation: Under the FIFO method, that is, first in first out method inventory is recorded on the assumption that the goods that were purchased first will also be sold first and the remaining inventory will have the latest purchased units.
So, in the given question the two units sold would be costing $80 and $95
Hence,
Gross profit = $240 - ($80 + $95)
= $65
Answer:
a. Demand will increase.
b. Demand will increase.
c. Demand will increase.
d. Demand will decline.
e. Demand will increase.

e. When the price of gasoline drops it will become cheaper to use autos. This will lead to an increase in demand for autos.
Answer:
Total Material cost variance $5,600 favorable
Explanation:
<em>The direct matriculate total variance is he difference between the standard material cost for the actual output achieved and the actual material cost of the same output</em>
Standard materiel cost per unit = 0.25 × $30 = $7.5 per unit
$
5,000 units should have cost (5000× $7.5) = 37,500
but did cost (actual cost 1,000 × $29 <u> 31,900
</u>
Total Material cost variance <u> 5600</u> favorable
