Answer: 1. $690 (favorable)
2. $9045 (favorable)
Explanation: These can be computed as follows :-
Labor rate variance = Actual labor cost - (standard rate * actual hours)
= $139,380 - ( $20.1 * 6900 hours )
= $690 (favorable)
.
Labor efficiency variance = ( Actual hours - standard hours ) * (standard rate )
= [6900 hours - (1500 units * 4.3 hours) ] * ($20.1)
= $9045 (favorable)

$101 million income tax expense
Explanation:
The income tax of HD can be computed by beginning with income tax payable less the increase in deferred tax asset in the year and finally by deducting the portion of current deferred tax asset that cannot be realized as shown below:
Current income tax payable $90 million
increase in deferred tax asset($170-$130) ($40 million)
unrealized deferred tax asset ($170*30%) $51 million
income tax expense in income statement $101 million
The HD income tax expense in income statement in 2021 is $101 million as computed due to the fact that prior payment in tax ha been paid in the year
Answer:
Autonomous consumption is <u>$1,000</u> and the marginal propensity to consume is <u>0.9</u>.
A consumer whose income increases by $100 will increase consumption by <u>$90</u>.
Explanation:
Given C = 1000 + 0.9Y
Autonomous consumption refers to consumption expenditure of consumers that does not depend on income. Therefore, autonomous consumption is therefore the consumption expenditure made by the consumers when they do not have income or when income is zero (i.e. when Y = 0).
Substituting for Y = 0 into the consumption function, we can obtain autonomous consumption is follows:
Autonomous consumption = 1000 + (0.9 * 0) = 1,000
The marginal propensity to consume refers to the proportion of the increase in disposable income that is spent on the consumption of goods and services by a consumer. From the consumption function, the marginal propensity to consume is 0.9.
Since marginal propensity to consume is 0.9, a consumer whose income increases by $100 will therefore increase consumption by $90 (i.e. $100 * 0.9 = $90).
