Answer:

$9000 (unfavorable).

Explanation:

Given: Budgeted fixed overhead= $360000.

          Actual fixed overhead=$ 360000.

          Actual production= 11,700 units.

         The variable overhead rate was $3 per hour.

         The standard hours for production were 5 hours per unit.

The fixed factory overhead volume variance is difference between actual production volume and budgeted production. It help in measuring the effecient use of fixed resources. It is termed as favourable if actual fixed overhead exceed the budgeted amount, however, it is unfavorable if the actual fixed overhead is less than budgeted amount.  

Now, lets calculate the Actual fixed overhead cost.

Actual fixed overhead cost= \textrm{actual fixed overhead}\times \frac{Actual\ production}{Budgeted\ production}

∴ Actual fixed overhead cost= \$ 360000\times \frac{11700}{12000} = \$ 351000.

Actual fixed overhead cost= $351000.

Next calculating the fixed factory overhead volume variance.

The fixed factory overhead volume variance= \textrm{Actual fixed overhead cost}-\textrm{budgeted fixed overhead}

We know, Budgeted fixed overhead= $360000 and Actual fixed overhead cost= $351000

∴ The fixed factory overhead volume variance= \$351000-\$360000= \$ 9000 (unfavorable)

The fixed factory overhead volume variance= $9000 (unfavorable)

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

a) H0: u = presence of a unit root

   HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root  ( i.e. stationary series )

b) t stat = -0.064

c) We will reject the Null hypothesis and the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis

d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise

Explanation:

<u>a) stating the null and alternative hypothesis</u>

H0: u = presence of a unit root

HA: u ≠ presence of a unit root  ( i.e. stationary series )

<u>b) performing the test </u>

critical value = -2.88

T stat = coefficient / std error

          = -0.02 / 0.31  = -0.064

c) From the test, the value of T stat > critical value we will reject the Null hypothesis hence the next step will be to accept the alternative hypothesis

d) It is not valid to compare the estimated t stat with the corresponding critical value because a random walk is non-stationary while the difference is stationary because it is white noise

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>The site will have all of the company’s applications.</em>

Explanation:

It is the only way to ensure a minimum or zero level of inactivity, because otherwise people will not have the necessary tools to execute their work.

It is hardly obvious that due to the nature of the tasks it is impossible to try to adapt a space that is not adequate to execute them, since the conditions must be the necessary ones to guarantee it.
