Answer: 0 years

Explanation:

The payback period calculates the amount of time taken to recoup the initial investment made in a project or in the purchase of a machine or building. It calculates how long the cumulative cash flow generated from a project equals the cost of the project.

The payback period for both machines are zero years because the cumulative cash flow is less than the cost of the machine.

For machine A - cumulative cash flow- $-47,000 is less than -$71,000

For machine B - cumulative cash flow, -$7,000 is less than -$52,000

Explanations on how the figures were derived is found in the attached tables.

The following labor standards have been established for a particular product:
swat32

Answer:

$2,430F

Explanation:

The formulae for labor rate variance is given as (Actual rate - Standard rate) × Actual hours worked.

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) × Actual hours worked

Given that;

Actual rate = Actual total labor cost ÷ Actual hours worked

= $119,880 ÷ 8,100

= $14.8 per hour

Standard rate = $15.10 per hour

Actual hours worked = 8,100

Labor rate variance = ($14.8 - $15.10) × 8,100

Labor rate variance $2,430F
