Without trade, the farmer produced and consumed 2 pounds of pork and 4 pounds of tomatoes and the rancher produced and consumed
Elis [28]

Answer:

the farmer gained 6 hours worth of production and the rancher gained 8 hours worth of production.

Explanation:

                 Labor Hours to Make 1 lb. of        lbs. Produced in 24 Hours

                  Pork                  Tomatoes              Pork            Tomatoes

Farmer        6                            3                       4                       8

Rancher     4                            4                       6                      6

If both decide to specialize in producing only one good, the farmer will produce 8 pounds of tomatoes per day and the rancher will produce 6 pounds of pork per day.

This way when the rancher trades 4 pounds of pork in exchange for 6 pounds of tomatoes, he is gaining 2 pounds of pork which is equivalent to 8 labor hours.

When the rancher trades 6 pounds of tomatoes in exchange for 4 pounds of pork, he is gaining 2 pounds of tomatoes which is equivalent to 6 labor hours.

Because budgeted fixed costs remain the same regardless of production volume, a(n):________ variance occurs when there is a diff
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

A production volume variance

Explanation:

A production volume variance occurs when there is a significant difference between the actual volume of products manufactured and the budgeted or standard volume of production. Therefore, a production volume variance can be harnessed by businesses in order to measure the production cost of products against the budgeted fixed cost.

The production volume variance can be calculated by difference between actual volume of production and the standard volume of production, multiplied by the overhead rate that have been budgeted.

So, when calculating the production volume variance, if the actual volume of production is lower than the budgeted or standard volume of production, then the production volume variance is not favorable.

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

$49,000

Explanation:

The number of inspection performed has a direct proportionality relationship with the allocated over heads. In other words, as the number of inspections performed increases, so does the overhead cost assigned to the production activity.

Total inspection  = 700 + 1300 = 2000

Total overhead = $140,000

The inspecting cost pool to be assigned to throw rugs

= 700/2000 × $140,000

= $49,000
