Which relationship might suggest a heightened risk of fraud in the acquisition and payment cycle? a. Unexpected increases in the

masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Unexpected increases in the number of suppliers.

Explanation:

Frauds or money cleansing usually requires the help of a network of different business interconnected to clear the illegal funds with the excuse of having made commercial activities that never took place. In most cases, accounting documents are faked so that the proceeds of the questionable funds may seem as legal as possible.

In that case, if a company counts with more suppliers and fraud is taking place in the organization, <em>they will have the excuse of making more payments so more funds can go out of the company</em>.

gladu [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. What is the company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio?

= sales - variable cost/ sales

= $315,000 - $239,400/$315,000

= $75,600/$315,000

= 0.24 x 100

= 24%

2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $1,100?

Net operating income

= sales - variable cost - fixed cost

= $315,000 - $239,400 - $39,000

= $36,600

Change in operating income

= $316,100 - $239,400 - 39,000

= $37,700

Contribution margin ratio

= $316,600 - $239,400/316,600

= $77,200/$316,600

= 0.24 x 100

= 24%

Estimated change

=Change in total sales x CMR

= $1,100 x 24%

= $264

Marianna [84]

Answer: c. $1,650 unfavorable

Explanation:

The direct labor rate variance shows the difference between the cost of direct labor that the company thought it would incur vs what it actually incurs for the period.

Formula is:

Direct labor rate variance = Actual cost of direct labor - Standard cost of actual hours of direct labor

= Actual hours * (Actual cost - Standard cost)

= 5,500 * (24 - 23.70)

= $1,650 unfavorable

Unfavorable because the actual cost incurred was more than the cost anticipated.
