Answer:

New Trade Theory

Explanation:

New Trade Theory explains one reason why some countries specialize in specific industries for factors other than natural resources, quantity of labor force, or comparative advantage.

This reason is that some industries can only support a limited number of firms around the world. An example of this is the aeronautic industry, which only has a few players, with two giant firms dominating above all others: Boeing (US), and Airbus (Europe).

While the United States and the European Union can specialize in making planes through their respective giant companies, most other countries in the world cannot do so: they neither have the techology, nor the expertise, nor the capital to create a successful competitor for Aribus or Boeing. It is not even clear if the market needs or would support a third industry giant either.

Breakeven sales is the quantity sold at which net income is equal to zero.

Breakeven sales = fixed cost / (price per unit - variable cost per unit )

$1,215,000 / ($80 - $35) = 27,000

If Highway 55 Studios can reduce fixed expenses by $60,750, variable cost =

27,000 = ($1,215,000 - $60,750) / ($80 - V)

27,000 = 1,154,250 / ($80 - V)

V = $37.25

Variable cost would increase by : $37.25 - $35 = 2.25

Answer:

Variable overhead efficiency variance = $2,212unfavorable

Explanation:

variable overhead efficiency variance: Variable overhead efficiency variance aims to determine whether or not their exist savings or extra cost incurred on variable overhead as a result of workers being faster or slower that expected.

Since the variable overhead is charged using labour hours, any amount by which the actual labour hours differ from the standard allowable hours would result in a variance

Hours

5,400 units should have taken (5,400×3.8 hours) 20,520

but did take 20,800

Labour hours variance 280 unfavorable

Standard variable overhead rate × $ 7.90 per hour

Variable overhead efficiency variance $2,212 unfavorable

Variable overhead efficiency variance = $2,212unfavorable

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the plantwide predetermine manufacturing overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

total estimated overhead costs for the period= (625,000 + 900,000 + 105,000 + 175,000 + 300,000 + 75,000)

total estimated overhead costs for the period= $2,180,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,180,000 / 125,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $17.44 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to each product line:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Deluxe:

Allocated MOH= 17.44*2,500

Allocated MOH= $43,600

Basic:

Allocated MOH= 17.44*6,000

Allocated MOH= $104,640
