Answer:

Management by exception

Explanation:

This is a practice of examining the financial as well as operational results of a business and bringing to management only those differences that show a significant difference between the budgeted and actual amounts. This allows managers to focus on the highly important variances that can affect the growth and profitability of a company significantly. This concept, can however be fine-tuned where small variances are shown but to low-level managers whilst the senior managers will look at the large variances.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Break-even units = 66.67 units

Explanation:

<em>Break-even point is the level of activity that achieves no profit or loss. At this level profit is zero because the the total revenue is equal to total cost.</em>

<em>The break-even point is calculated as </em>

<em>Units to achieve target profit = (Total general fixed cost for the period + target profit)/ contribution per unit</em>

Contribution per unit = Selling Price - Variable cost

Contribution per unit = 15- (1+3+0.50) = 10.5

Fixed cost = 500 +( 50× 4) = 700

So the units requited to achieve break-even point:

Break-even point =  700/10.5

                            = 66.67 units

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. Option (A) is correct.

2. Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

1. Micron's entry to record the dividend transaction is as follows:

Cash A/c      Dr. $16,450

To Long - Term Investments  $16,450

workings:

Dividend = $47,000 × 35%

               = $16,450

2. The entry to record the receipt of dividend would be:

Cash A/c     Dr. $12,000

To Dividend Revenue A/c   $12,000

(To record the receipt of dividend)

Workings:

Dividend = 3,000 shares × $4 per share

               = $12,000

1. Which of the following is NOT a general characteristic of a service? A. Production and consumption are simultaneous. B. The s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

B. The service can be transported

Explanation:

Service relates to providing an intangible form of work which is performed for others to yield a benefit or satisfy a want. An important aspect of a service being, it is intangible or something which cannot be touched or felt.

For example, service provided by a doctor or services provided by a waiter at a hotel. Services are consumed, the moment they are produced. For instance, services of a waiter arise when a customer enters the hotel and a want for the service is created.

Services cannot be resold as for instance the receiver performs the same service to another, the provider would change.

As services are intangible, they cannot be stored since they arise only when a want arises and are consumed immediately.

Thus, the correct option is B. The service can be transported.

Community Manufacturing Inc. developed the following standard costs for direct material and direct labor for one of their major
hammer [34]

Answer:

Particulars               Standard                           Actual

                      Qty     Rate   Amount       Qty      Rate   Amount

Materials     2,000     26     52,000      2,200     24       52,800

Labor          1,000       14     14,000       1,050     14.75    15,487.50

Actual output                                   10,000.00    

Materials required (10000*0.20) = 2,000.00

Labor hrs required (10000*0.1) =    1,000.00

1. May's direct material price variance

= (SP-AP)*AQ

= (26 - 24*)2200  

= 4,400 F      

2. May's direct material quantity variance

= (SQ-AQ)*SP  

= (2,000 - 2,200)*26

= 5,200 U

3. May's direct labor cost variance

= Standard Cost - Actual Cost

= 14,000 - 15,487.50

= 1,487.50 U

4. May's direct labor rate variance

= (SR-AR)*AH  

= (14 - 14.75)*1,050

= 787.50 U

5. May's direct labor efficiency variance

= (SH-AH)*SR

= (1,000 - 1,050)*14

= 700 U
