Answer:

1. Standard quantity of kilograms

  = 0.67 kg x 3,800

  = 2,546 kg

2. Standard material cost allowed to make 3,800 helmets

  = 0.67 x $7 x 3,800

  = $17,822

3. Material spending variance     $

   Standard material cost           17,822

   Less: Actual material cost      18,308

                                                    486(U)

4. Material price variance

   = (Standard price - Actual price) x Actual quantity purchased

   = ($7 - $6.599855804) x 2774 kg

   = $1,110(F)

   Actual price

   = Actual material cost

      Actual quantity purchased

   = $18,308

        2,774 kg

   = $6.599855804

   Material usage variance

   = (Standard quantity - Actual quantity used) x Standard price

   = (2,546 - 2,774) x $7

   = $1,596(U)

Explanation:

Material spending variance is the difference between standard material cost and actual material cost. Material price variance is the difference between standard price and actual price multiplied by actual quantity purchased. Material usage variance is the difference between standard quantity and actual quantity used multiplied by standard price. Actual price is actual material cost divided by actual quantity purchased. Standard quantity is calculated as standard quantity per unit multiplied by actual output.

Assume that locating a cement factory in the middle of Boston would save the producer $5 million at a public expense, in polluti
never [62]

Answer:

$5 million

Explanation:

If we follow the Coase Theorem, the appropriate solution to this case should be obtained regardless of initial rights. In this case, the factory saves $5 million to the producer, but it costs $10 million to Boston residents. if Boston residents pay $5 million or more to the factory owner, then both would benefit. Boston residents will gain $10 - $5 = $5 million, as well as the factory owner.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": research and validate marketing opportunity, identify business needs, segment total market, profile target customer segment, research and validate marketing opportunity.

Explanation:

In an attempt to expand their operations, companies must analyze the market where they are planning to handle businesses. For such a purpose, entities must use two important tools which are segmentation and targeting. Segmentation is the classification of the market that differentiates customers by different features such as age, gender or income.

Targeting refers to selecting a specific sector of the market to whom the product planned to be manufactured will be offered. The steps an organization should follow to conduct the segmentation and targeting correctly are:

  1. <em>Research and validate marketing opportunity (in the beginning) </em>
  2. <em>Identify business needs </em>
  3. <em>Segment total market </em>
  4. <em>Profile target customer segment </em>
  5. <em>Research and validate marketing opportunity (at the end)</em>
