Answer:
The total of the combined salaries of all the employees at Company E after July 1 last year was 110% of that before July 1 last year.
Explanation:
If we use numbers, as example, we can get that:
Before July 1st Company E' s employes had in average salary of $100.000 (example).
If, after the decreased of employees, average salary was 10% percent more, that means that:
- $100.000 x 10%= <u>$10.000
</u>
So, total of combined salaries after decreased was
- $100.000+$10.000= $110.000
$110.000 is the 110% of the average salary before decreased because:
- <u>$110.000/100.000 = 110%</u>

Answer:
Explanation:
Standard pounds per cake = 3 pounds
Standard unit price = $3
Standard pounds 5500 cakes = 16,500 pounds
Actual pounds per 5500 cakes = 16,650
Variance = (16,650 - 16,500)=150
Cost of actual materials used = actual materials * standard price
=16,650*3 =49,950
Cost of work in progress = Standard materials * standard price = 16,500*3= 49.500
Direct material quantity variance = Quantity variance * 3
150*3 = 450
Journal entry
Debit work in progress = 49,500
Debit material quantity variance = 450
Credit Material = 49,950
