Answer:

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= $3,741 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The standard variable overhead rate is $6.10 per direct labor-hour.

During the most recent month, 1,300 units of product D80D were made and 8,700 direct labor-hours were worked. The actual variable overhead incurred was $56,770

To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity

actual rate= 56,770/8,700= $6.53 per hour

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= (6.1 - 6.53)*8,700

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= $3,741 unfavorable

Assume that the short-run cost and demand data given in the tables below confront a monopolistic competitor selling a given prod
REY [17]

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

<u>Explanation:</u>

(a)  (i) Marginal cost (MC) = Change in Total cost (TC) by Change in output (Q)

(ii) Total revenue (TR) = Price (P) into Q

(iii) Marginal revenue (MR) = Change in TR by Change in Q

(iv) Profit = TR - TC

Therefore:

Q  TC  MC  P  TR  MR  PROFIT

0  25   60  0   -25

1  40  15  55  55  55  15

2  45  5  50  100  45  55

3  55  10  45  135  35  80

4  70  15  40  160  25  90

5  90  20  35  175  15  85

6  115  25  30  180  5  65

7  145  30  25  175  -5  30

8  180  35  20  160  -15  -20

9  220 40  15  135  -25  -85

10  265 45  10  100  -35  -165

When Q = 4, MR = $25 and MC = $15, so MR > MC. When Q = 5, MR = $15 and MC = $20, so MR < MC. Therefore,  

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

(b)  In the long run, new firms will enter the market by being attracted by positive short run profit. Therefore in long run, demand for individual firm will decrease, price for individual firm will decrease and profit will decrease until each existing firm earns zero economic profit.
