Joe​ Henry's machine shop uses 2 comma 510 brackets during the course of a year. These brackets are purchased from a supplier 90
stepan [7]

Answer:

D = 2,510 brackets

              H =  $1.60

              Co =  $20

              EOQ =    √2 x 2510 x  20/1.60

             EOQ = 250 units

Average inventory = EOQ/2

                                 = 250/2

                                = 125 units

Total Holding Cost = QH/2

                                = 250 x $1.60/2

                               = $200

No of order = Annual demand/EOQ

                    = 2,510/250

                   = 10 times

Annual  ordering cost = DCo/Q

                                      = 2,510 x $20/250

                                     = $200

Total annual cost = Annual ordering cost + annual holding cost

                              = $200 + $200

                             = $400

Time between orders = No of working days in a year/No of order

                                      = 250/10

                                      = 25 days

Explanation: Economic order quantity is a function of square root of 2 x annual demand x ordering cost per order divided by holding cost per item per annum. D denotes annual demand, Co is ordering cost per order and H represents holding cost per item per annum.

Average inventory is calculated as EOQ/2

Total annual holding cost is calculated as EOQ multiplied by holding cost per item per annum/2

No of order is the ratio of annual demand to EOQ

Annual ordering cost is calculated as annual demand multiplied by ordering cost per order divided by EOQ

Total annual cost is the aggregate of annual ordering cost and annual holding cost

Time between orders is the ratio of number of days in a year to number of order

Miller’s Dairy produces 960 gallons of milk per day. Each milker at the dairy works 8 hours per day and produces the same number
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

A dairy is producing 960 gallons of milk per day.

Each milker works 8 hours and produces the same amount of milk.

For per hour of labor the diary produces 12 gallons of milk.

Quantity of milk produced by a labor in 8 hours

= Production\ in\ one\ hour\times No.\ of\ hours

= 12\times 8

= 96 gallons

The number of workers required to produce 960 gallons per day

= \frac{Total\ daily\ Production}{Daily\ production\ by\ each\ labor}

= \frac{960}{96}

= 10 workers

Answer:

Revenue and spending variance is Unfavourable

Activity variance is favourable

Explanation:

We need to determine Revenue and Spending Variance and Activity Variance.

Revenue and Spending Variance = difference between actual result and flexible budget. The above variance may be favourable or unfavorable or none

In the case of revenue, if the actual result figure is higher than the flexible budget, the revenue and expenditure variance is favorable and vice versa.

In case of expenses, if actual result figure is higher than flexible budget the revenue and spending variance is  unfavorable and vice a versa.

F is for Favourable

U is for Unfavourable

N is for None

Activity Variance  = difference between flexible budget and planning budget . The above variance may be favourable or unfavorable or none

Actual Result Revenue and Spending Variance  Flexible Budget Activity Variance  Planning Budget
