Answer: A: remain constant on a per-unit basis but change in total based on activity level

Explanation: A Variable cost is a cost an organisation incurs that is affected by fluctuations in production and so changes between given periods.

variable costs are not consistent but fluctuates in relation to the production activity of an organisation. Variable costs increases as production level increases and vise versa.

Costs associated with variable costs are those that contribute directly to the goods or service being offered by a business and therefore differ from period to period.

The total costs a company incurs are divided into Variable costs and Fixed costs. variable costs are costs incurred on raw materials, commission, labour, packaging and shipping while fixed costs are costs incurred on rent, salaries, repairs and maintenance, electricity etc.

Suppose a tire manufacturer wants to set a mileage guarantee on its new XB 70 tire. Tests revealed that the tire's mileage is no
kogti [31]

Answer:

The manufacturer should announce a guaranteed mileage of 44528 miles

Explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 47900, \sigma = 2050

What guaranteed mileage should the manufacturer announce

Only until the 5th percentile will have to be replaced, which is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05. So it is X when Z = -1.645.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.645 = \frac{X - 47900}{2050}

X - 47900 = -1.645*2050

X = 44528

The manufacturer should announce a guaranteed mileage of 44528 miles

katrin [286]

Answer:

Dr Purchases/ Raw Material Inventory .......................80,000

Cr   Bank/Account Payable....................................................80,000

Dr Work in Process ................................................................67,400

Cr Raw Material Inventory............................................................67,400

Explanation:

FOR PURCHASE OF MATERIAL

Dr Purchases/ Raw Material Inventory .......................80,000

Cr   Bank/Account Payable....................................................80,000

Being purchase of 10,000 units of raw materials at  $8 per unit

FOR MATERIAL FOR PRODUCTION

Dr Work in Process ................................................................67,400

Cr Raw Material Inventory............................................................67,400

Being materials used in production: 7,500 units at $8 per unit for job 200 and 1,480 units at $5 per unit for job 305

In relation to 'purchase of material' we debit the raw material inventory account because material is increasing and is an asset account; and we credit Bank if the materials have been paid for OR 'accounts payable', if the material has not yet been paid for.

In relation to 'requisition of material for production' we debit the raw material inventory account because material is decreasing and is an asset account; and we credit 'work in process' to assign the cost of materials to the ongoing jobs respectively.

Juanita and Sam attend a beach party and notice that the local beach appears to have a great deal more trash washed up on shore
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The answer is talking to a local environmental group for solutions.

Explanation:

This option is the best one for Juanita and Sam to take since they both need someone who have more expertise in this field to help them determine the best solution to the problem that they encounter, which is sea trash. The other options are unsuitable because they do not provide direct impact (such as picketing the guilty factory), unrealistic (lobbying their elected representatives), or have been done (identifying the changes and problem).
