Answer:
a. Wait until 2018 and see what the turnover rate is at the end of that year
Explanation:
Absenteeism is an employee’s intentional or habitual absence from work. Employee turnover is the number or percentage of employees who leave the workplace during a specific period of time.
(b) By dealing with possible employee work overloads, the human resource manager can help reduce the stress, pressure and burden felt by employees in the workplace.
(c) By identifying causes of job dissatisfaction, the manager can understand how to make work interesting and have more satisfied and motivated employees. The same consequences can be achieved by adjusting job design (d).
(e) By identifying possible employee role conflicts, negative tension and problems can be solved. There would also be the possibility for new friendships and social cliques to be formed.
All of these measures would lead to solutions that would reduce absenteeism and turnover.
On the other hand, waiting until the end of 2018 can damage the organization severely. There would not only be an increase in absenteeism and labour turnover but a heavy decline in labour productivity and increase in errors and mistakes. This would impact sales and profitability of the entire company. It is important that the HR manager take measures to solve the problem as soon as possible.

Question
Monty Manufacturing builds playground equipment that it sells to elementary schools and municipalities. Monty's management has contracted you to perform a variance analysis on the fixed manufacturing overhead for its line of slides. Monty's cost accounting team informs you that it allocates fixed overhead based on machine hours. This period production was budgeted at 35
0 slides
. Budgeted and actual production data follows:
Standard fixed overhead cost per machine hour $5.00
Standard machine hours per slide 9
Actual production 390
Actual fixed overhead cost $20,000
What is the fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance in this period?
Answer:
Fixed overhead volume variance $1800 Favorable
Explanation:
Standard fixed cost per unit = cost per hour × standard hours
= $5.00 ×9 = $45
Units
Budgeted production unit 350
Actual production unit <u>390</u>
Volume variance in (units) 40
Standard fixed over cost per unit <u>× $45</u>
Fixed overhead volume variance <u> 1800 </u>Favorable
Fixed overhead volume variance $1800 Favorable
