Answer:

$37,600 favorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead spending variance can be computed as;

= (Actual hours worked × Actual variable overhead rate) - ( Actual hours worked - Standard variable overhead rate)

= ( 18,800 hours × $77,700/12,000) - (18,800 hours × $4.5)

= [(18,800 × $6.5) - (18,800 × $4.5)]

= $122,200 - $84,600

= $37,600 favorable

You are asked to make comparisons of two pairs of countries. The first pair are the Latin American countries of Chile and Argent

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Part a: According to Solow model higher per capita real GDP will be in Chile because of its highest saving rate.

Part b: The per capita capital stock or the labour ratio is the primary factor for these differences in the simple Solow model.

Explanation:

According to Solow model higher per capita real GDP will be in Chile because of its highest saving rate.

In Solow model the GDP per capita is defined as

$y=k^{\alpha}=f(k)$

Also the steady state path is given as

$sf(k)=(s+n)k\\\frac{s}{s+n}=\frac{k^*}{f(k^*)}\\\frac{s}{s+n}=\frac{k^*^{\alpha-1}}{k^*}\\\frac{s}{s+n}={k^*^{\alpha-2}}$

As all other parameters are same thus the country with higher value of s will have a higher per capita GDP.

According to the Solow model, higher saving rate means larger capital stock and high level of output at the steady state.

Higher saving rate leads to faster growth in Solow model. So there is higher per capita real GDP for the country that has higher saving rate.

In Simple Solow Model, the steady state per Capita GDP, $y^*$ is the function of the steady state per capita capital stock given as $k^*$

Now this indicates that

$y^*=f(k^*)$

where f is an increasing concave function i.e. f'>0 and f''<0

Thus the sole dependence of per capita GDP is on per capita capital stock.

Thus the per capita capital stock or the labour ratio is the primary factor for these differences in the simple Solow model.
