Answer:

correct option is d. $4800 U

Explanation:

given data

product requiring =  3 direct labor hours

standard rate = $ 16 per direct labor hour

produced using = 8700 direct labor hours

actual payroll = $135720

to find out

labor quantity variance

solution

we get here labor quantity variance that is express as

Direct labor quantity variance = (standard hours worked for actual production - actual hour worked)  × standard rate per direct labor hour   ...................1

here  standard hours worked for actual production will be as

standard hours worked = standard hours required per unit of production × actual units produced      

standard hours worked = 3 × 2800

standard hours worked = 8400 hours but we have given actual work hour 8700  direct labor hours

so put all value is equation 1 we get

Direct labor quantity variance = ( 8400 - 8700 )  × $16

Direct labor quantity variance = $4800 unfavorable

so correct option is d. $4800 U

Goods with many close substitutes tend to have a. more elastic demands. b. less elastic demands. c. price elasticities of demand
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. more elastic demands.

Explanation:

There are some goods whose demand is very price sensitive, small variations in their price cause large variations in the quantity demanded. It is said of them that they have elastic demand. The goods that, on the contrary, are not sensitive to price are those of inelastic or rigid demand. In these large variations in prices can occur without consumers varying the quantities they demand. The intermediate case is called unit elasticity.

The elasticity of demand is measured by calculating the percentage by which the quantity demanded of a good varies when its price varies by one percent. If the result of the operation is greater than one, the demand for that good is elastic; If the result is between zero and one, its demand is inelastic.

The factors that influence the demand for a good to be more or less elastic are:

1) Type of needs that satisfies the good. If the good is of first necessity the demand is inelastic, it is acquired whatever the price; On the other hand, if the good is luxurious, the demand will be elastic since if the price increases a little, many consumers will be able to do without it.

2) Existence of substitute goods. If there are good substitutes, the demand for good will be very elastic. For example, a small increase in the price of olive oil can cause a large number of housewives to decide to use sunflower.

2018           12,000                   20%

d. $9,600

e. $400

Answer:

QRS

12/31/18 Income Tax Payable is:

b. $2,000

Explanation:

a) Data:

QRS Company:

Year        Pre-Tax Net            Tax Rate

               Income (Loss)

2015          $10,000                  20%

2016             8,000                   20%

2017          (20,000)                  20%

2018           12,000                   20%

b) QRS can recover the loss from the 2015 and 2016 net income in the sum of $18,000 ($10,000 + $8,000) and then carry forward $2,000 against 2018 net income.  Therefore, the taxable income for 2018 will be $10,000 ($12,000 - $2,000).  The income tax payable is $2,000 ($10,000 * 20%).
