Answer: The TPP could lead to income disparity and also increase in the prices of certain products.

Explanation:

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) was a free trade agreement that was made between the United States of America and eleven other countries. The TPP was between Canada, Vietnam, Japan, Peru Australia, Brunei, Mexico, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore and the United States.

The TPP was met with political resistance because it was believed that free trade agreements will lead to income inequality especially in high income countries as most of the gains gotten would go to employees with high income.

Also, the TPP protected patents and copyrights and this could have led to more income for the owners of intellectual property which could have led to a reduction in the availability of cheap drugs.

$9,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the total fixed overhead variance is shown below:

= Actual fixed overhead costs - Budgeted fixed overhead

where,

Budgeted fixed overhead  is $360,000

And, the Actual fixed overhead cost is computed below:

= Actual fixed overhead × Actual production  ÷ budgeted production

= $360,000 × 11,700 units ÷ 12,000 units

= $351,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $351,000 - $360,000

= $9,000 unfavorable

Fynjy0 [20]

<u>1. If management wants the most accurate product cost, which of the following costing methods should be used?</u>

c. Activity-based costing

Explanation:

In activity based costing, You only assign cost to a certain products and services based on your actual consumption. This will include indirect cost that might be overlooked by other from of costing methods.

For example, other type of costing might only account the total material or price of the machines when calculating the total cost of creating product. As a matter of fact, this will undervalue the total cost.

You need to calculate the expense that is not directly involved in the production but still necessary for the operation (such as the cost of fixing broken parts,  the cost of daily maintenance, etc). All of these things will be included in activity-based costing.

<u />

<u>2. Which costing method tends to overstate the cost of high-volume products? </u>

Answer:

A. traditional volume based accounting

Explanation

Traditional volume based costing  will calculate all overhead costs (such as salary paid per hour to employees)  and include it to the overall cost of the production without any additional adjustment.

This will cause an overstate in the cost of high-volume products Because longer hours of work does not necessarily translate to proportionate increase in productivity.,

3. Disadvantages of activity-based costing include

Answer:

-It is not acceptable under GAAP for external reporting.

-It can be costly to implement.

GAAP does not accept activity-based costing becasue it overlooked  Organization-sustaining costs that will exist regardless of how much goods the company produce. (For example  Cost of factory security, Cost of electricity for heating and air conditioning and  office administration rent).

Activity based costing can be costly because it need a more precise evaluation of their indirect cost. Which means that they need to hire more experts to specifically pay attention to indirect cost which often time untraceable by common employees.
