Answer:

C. $4,500 favorable

Explanation:

Spending Variance is the difference between the actual and estimated value of the expense. In this question we need to calculate the variance of total manufacturing overhead.

Variable

Actual Variable cost = $60,500

Manufacturing overhead application rate = Budgeted overhead / Budgeted units = $50,000 / 10,000 units = $5 per unit

Applied Overhead = Actual production x application rate = 11,000 units x $5 = $55,000

Variance = $60,500 - $55,000 = $5,500 unfavorable

Fixed

Actual fixed overhead = $125,000

Budgeted Fixed overhead = $135,000

Variance = $135,000 - $125,000 = $10,000 Favorable

Total Variance = Variance of variable manufacturing overhead cost + Variance of fixed manufacturing overhead cost

Total Variance = $10,000 Favorable - $5,500 unfavorable

Total Variance = $4,500 Favorable

nexus9112 [7]

Answer: a. 2.90%

b. 2.81%

Explanation:

Nominal rate = 6%

Inflation rate = 3.1%

a. What is the approximate real rate of interest?

The approximate real rate of interest will be calculated as:

= Nominal rate - Inflation rate

= 6.0% - 3.1%

= 2.90%

b. What is the exact real rate?

Exact real rate will be calculated as:

= (nominal-inflation) / (1+inflation)

= (6.0% - 3.1%) / (1 + 3.1%)

= 2.9% / 1.031

= 2.81%

raketka [301]

Answer:

That is correct this is a liability

Explanation:

That is correct this is a liability. That is because a liability refers to being legally responsible for something. In this scenario, since they paid you $200 for hair coloring then you owe the client that. Meaning that you are legally responsible to provide hair coloring services to the client and until you do that you are liable.

Changes in net operating working capital should not be reflected in a capital budgeting cash flow analysis because capital budge
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Net working capital, or "Working Capital" is simply the difference between current or current assets and current or short-term liabilities of a company.

Cash flow, on the other hand, is the net amount of cash and its equivalents that is transferred inside and outside the company and that may originate in operational, investment or financing activities.

Cash flow will have an operational origin, when there is a net decrease in working capital. In this situation there will be a net cash release that the company can use freely to honor debts, reinvest in operations, pay dividends, cover expenses or provide funds for future investments.

A negative cash flow, from the point of view of operations, implies that the company has increased its cash demands to finance sales on credit or inventory. That is, it has increased its investment in working capital. Situation that will require an analysis that allows a better way to manage capital.

Bramble Corp. makes and sells widgets. The company is in the process of preparing its selling and administrative expense budget
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

$720,000

Explanation:

The total budgeted selling and administrative expenses is made up of both fixed and variable components. The variable component of the cost is dependent on the budgeted number of units to be sold.

Total variable cost budgeted

= 58000 ( $1 + $3 + $4 +$2)

= $580,000

Total fixed cost = $10,000 + $120,000 + $4,000 + $6,000

= $140,000

total budgeted selling and administrative expenses for October

= $580,000 + $140,000

= $720,000
