1. Why do you think savings, scholarships, and state aid are good “preparation"
valentina_108 [34]

Savings, scholarships and state aid are good preparations steps for one to take before applying for federal financial aid because They help one to

save enough money to be able to pay for college and also prevent serious debt after graduating.

Financial intelligence is a vital and indispensable virtue one must cultivate,just like the question stated, before going high as to seek federal aid,it is imperative to start from savings, scholarships and state aid because those can help you after graduating and not put you through serious debt after graduating.

If you must apply for federal aid,that implies that you have tried other better, easier means and all proved abortive and the only option that is left is the federal aid.

And while on federal aid,plans must be made on the means to pay back all sorts of financial issues so that once graduated,the financial burden will be minimal.

Answer:

Safety Stock.

<em>Safety stock = (Md * Ml) - (Ad * Al) </em>

Where;

Md = maximum daily usage.

Ml = maximum lead time in days.

Ad = average daily usage.

Al = average lead time in days.

Phoebe, a sales representative, is so excited during her sales presentation that she does not hear the customer's question corre
Westkost [7]

Answer:

<u>Selective Perception </u>

Explanation:

Selective perception refers to a psychological state wherein, an individual perceives and comprehends only that information he/she finds desirable, thereby ignoring the rest of the information during communication.

So, any of the viewpoints or ideas which appear conflicting to one's own are ignored and discarded under such a psychological state.

In the given case, Phoebe got excited during her presentation that she missed out upon hearing customer's questions. In such a state of excitement, her mind only perceived what she desired, thereby ignoring anything which appeared undesirable.

So post providing inappropriate answers, she went on with her presentation , i.e she got carried away in excitement. Such psychological state indicates the operation of selective perception.

Beverly Company has determined a standard variable overhead rate of $3.10 per direct labor hour and expects to incur 0.50 labor
Damm [24]

Answer:

Variable overhead rate variance = $ 875 favorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = $ 4,185 favorable

Variable overhead cost variance = $5,060 Favorable

Explanation:

Standard hours = 1 hr x 2600 units = 2600 hours

Standard rate = $3.10

Actual hours = 1,250 hours

Actual rate = $2.40

Variable overhead rate variance =  ( Standard Rate - Actual Rate ) x Actual Hrs

=  ( $ 3.10 - $2.40 ) x 1250 Hrs

= $0.7 x 1250

=$ 875 favorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) x Standard Rate

= (2600 - 1250 ) x $ 3.10

= $ 4,185 favorable

Variable overhead spending variance = Variable overhead rate variance +  Variable overhead efficiency variance

= $875 + $4,185

= $ 5,060 favorable

Variable overhead cost variance = Standard cost - Actual Cost

= (2600 X 3.10) - (1250 X 2.40) = 8,060 - 3000

= $5,060 Favorable
