Answer:

Direct Labor rate Variance  $ 24840 Unfavorable

Labor Efficiency  Variance  $23520 favorable

Explanation:

Direct Labor rate Variance = Actual Hours * Actual Rate- Actual Hour * Standard Rate

Direct Labor rate Variance = 24840*15- 24840*14

                                                = 372600- 347760    

                                            = $ 24840 Unfavorable

Labor Efficiency  Variance =  Actual Hours * Standard Rate- Standard Hour * Standard Rate

Labor Efficiency  Variance =  24840*14- 4*6630*14

                                           =  24840*14- 26520*14

                                         = 347760 - 371280= $23520 favorable

= $360 - 560

= -$200

Hence, the answer is Real Surplus of $200 billion

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$12,280,000.

Explanation:

All the direct costs involved in the manufacturing of a product except fixed cost is called prime cost e.g direct material, direct labor etc.

Direct Material = $4,200,000

Direct labor = $8,080,000

Total Prime cost = Direct material + Direct labor = $4,200,000 + $8,080,000 = $12,280,000

Overhead costs are not classified as the prime cost because these are indirect costs.

miskamm [114]

Answer:$9,000

Explanation:

The tax credit offered to adoptive parents to encourage adoption is reffered to as ADOPTION TAX CREDIT. The adoption tax credit is a nonrefundable tax credit. This means that people owing taxes are also fit or qualified to apply for the adoption tax credit.

In the United States of America, adoption tax credit qualified expenses include court costs, traveling expenses, lawyer's or Attorney's fee and other expenses for legal adoption of an eligible child.

It can be calculated by subtracting

the max's employer provided for the couple with adoption benefits of $4,000 from the incurred expenses of a total of $13,000 in qualified adoption expenses(from the question).

That is; $13,000-$4,000.

= $9,000.

Hence, the maximum amount of adoption credit they can take this year is $9,000.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: a) true

Explanation:

The costs incurred to produce the intermediate products have already been incurred and as such are referred to as sunk costs.

They will not change regardless of whether the good is sold before further processing or if it is sold after. They therefore do not matter in the decision to either process or sell and so are not considered.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Don profit in the forward market can be USD 48,152.37

Explanation:

Spot rate currently is at 24.0239 MXN/USD

Sell USD forward at 26.5693 MXN/USD

Profit on settlement after 3 months = (Selling price - buying price)*Number of units

Profit on settlement after 3 months = (26.5693 - 25.3487)*1,000,000

Profit on settlement after 3 months = MXN 1,220,600

The exchange rate is expected to move to 25.3487 by Clint

Hence, 1,220,600/25.3487 = USD 48,152.37

Don profit in the forward market can be USD 48,152.37 if hewants to trade USD 1,000,000
