Answer:

a. $ 900 underapplied

Explanation:

Based on the data provided we conclude that the factory overhead is applied on the basis of direct labour hours.

Determination of Overhead rate

Estimated overhead                                                             $ 115,000

Direct labour hours                                                                  23,000 hours

Overhead rate per direct labor hour is $ 115,000/ 23,000 = $ 5 per direct labor hour

Amount of applied overhead = Direct Labor hours * Overhead rate per hour

Applied Overhead = $ 5 * 35,000                                        $ 175,000

Actual Overhead                                                                    <u>$ 175,900</u>

Underapplied Overhead                                                        $(     900)

iogann1982 [59]

Suppose in studying Climate Change we discover that in one country, deserts are going to be created where formerly there was grasslands and an abundance of water and in another place the coastlines are going to be altered. If you are an American, how do you think a politician is going to respond to such a problem.

Will his/her response be well thought out based on scientific preparedness, or will he (or she) grab onto the first solution suggestion to him/her and try and implement that?

Whatever he/she does, it will cost and everyone will be affected. A starting place is to find out what presidents in the past have done. During the Bush administration (the second Bush), there was an oil crisis. He responded by allocating more acreage to the growing of corn so supplementing oil production. Replaceable resources for non renewable ones. Sounded like a very good solution, but was it? As it turned out, no. He was robbing Peter to pay Paul. Thousands of people suffered (and died) with that decision because food is much more important than solving transportation problems at the expense of food.

The same is true here. If a solution is sought for global warming, politicians have to be well aware of what they are doing. And that has to be studied very carefully.

Zinaida [17]
This is an example of mass selling through publicity.
The show may not have been that much popular before Tom Bowman wanted it gone, however, after he asked for its removal from the air, people were interested to see why that is so, which is why it gained many new followers instead of losing its old ones.

Selma deposited a paycheck for $378.42. she’ll use the check register to record her transaction. What will be her new balance?
stepladder [879]

Selma’s new balance will be $378.42. A paycheck also known as a pay check or pay cheque, is a paper document issued by an employer to pay an employee for services rendered. However, the physical paycheck is increasingly being replaced by electronic direct deposits to the employee's designated bank account or loaded onto a payroll card.

Employees may still receive a pay slip detailing the final payment amount calculations. A salary statement, also known as a payslip, pay stub, paystub, pay advice, or sometimes paycheck stub or wage slip, is a document received by an employee that either includes or is attached to the paycheck.

Each country has laws governing what information must be included on a payslip .
