Porter Company uses standard costs for its manufacturing division. Standards specify 0.1 direct labor hours per unit of product.

The allocation base for variable overhead costs is direct labor hours. At the beginning of the​ year, the static budget for variable overhead costs included the following​ data: Production volume 6 comma 400 units Budgeted variable overhead costs $ 13 comma 500 Budgeted direct labor hours​ (DLHr) 640 hours At the end of the​ year, actual data were as​ follows: Production volume 4 comma 200 units Actual variable overhead costs $ 15 comma 300 Actual direct labor hours​ (DLHr) 485 hours What is the variable overhead efficiency​ variance? (Round any intermediate calculations to the nearest​ cent, and your final answer to the nearest​ dollar.)

Answer:

1,370.85 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Standard rate :

= Budgeted variable overhead costs ÷ Budgeted direct labor hours

= $13500 ÷ 640

Direct labor hours = $21.09 per direct labor hour

Standard time to produce goods :

= Budgeted direct labor hours  ÷ Production volume

= 640 ÷ 6,400

= 0.10 hours

VOH Efficiency Variance

= ( SH − AH ) × SR

where,

SH are standard direct labor hours allowed

AH are the actual direct labor hours

SR is the standard variable overhead rate

(SH − AH ) × SR

= [(4,200 × 0.10) - 485] × $21.09

= (420 - 485) × $21.09

= 1,370.85 Unfavorable

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

1) NOI = $90,240

2) NOI = 29,250

3) NOI = 133,260

4) NOI = 110,190

Explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete.</em>

<em />

<em>Sales (38,000 units)      $342,000     ($9.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Variable expenses        $228,000     ($6.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Contribution margin        $114,000     ($3.00 per unit)</em>

<em>Fixed expenses                $42,000 </em>

<em>Net operating income      $72,000</em>

1. What is the revised net operating income if unit sales increase by 16%

If unit sales increase, we can calculate this with a 16% increase in the contribution margin.

NOI=CM*(1+0.16)-FE=114,000*1.16-42,000=132,240-42,000\\\\NOI=90,240

2. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price decreases by $1.50 per unit and the number of units sold increases by 25%?

A reduction of $1.50 in price means a reduction of the same amount in the contribution margin per unit (CMu), as the variable expenses stay the same .

Also, the contribution margin increases by 25%, for the increase in units sold (q).

NOI=CM_u*q-FE=(3.00-1.50)*(38,000*1.25)-42,000\\\\NOI=1.5*47,500-42,000=71,250-42,000\\\\NOI=29,250

3. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price increases by $1.50 per unit, fixed expenses increase by $6,000, and the number of units sold decreases by 6%?

The selliing price will be added to the contribution margin per unit.

The units sold are increased 6%.

NOI=CMu*q-FE=(3.00+1.50)*38,000*1.06-(42,000+6,000)\\\\NOI=4.5*40,280-48,000=181,260-48,000\\\\NOI=133,260

4. What is the revised net operating income if the selling price per unit increases by 20%, variable expenses increase by 30 cents per unit, and the number of units sold decreases by 11%?

The contribution margin per unit, with a increase in price and an increase in variable cost, becomes:

CM_u=P-VE_u=9.00*(1.20)-(6.00+0.30)=10.80-6.30=4.50

The units sold is now:

q'=(1-0.11)q=0.89q=0.89*38,000=33,820

Then, the net operating income becomes:

NOI=CM_u*q-FE=4.5*33,820-42,000=152,190-42,000\\\\NOI=110,190

Domestic producers experience limited import competition when a VER is in place. As a result, these producers make extra profit
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Quota rent

Explanation:

When voluntary export restraints (VER) are set up and / or import quotas are enforced, the extra profit that domestic producers make because the supply is artificially limited is called quota rent. Quota rents are a type of economic inefficiency since they produce more losses than benefits. Society as a whole generally losses while a group of favored companies make huge profits.

For example, sugar imports are limited in the US, so domestic sugar producers are able to sell sugar at much higher prices than regular international prices. That artificial extra profit earned by sugar companies in the US can be classified as quota rent.

You are considering two investment alternatives. The first is a stock that pays quarterly dividends of $0.32 per share and is tr
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.

Explanation:

<u>For First stock </u>

Total dividend from first stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.32 * 2 = $0.64

HPR of first stock = (Total dividend from first stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($0.64 + ($31.72 - $27.85)) / $27.85 = 0.1619, or 16.19%

Annualized holding period return of first stock = HPR of first stock * Number 6 months in a year = 16.19% * 2 = 32.38%

<u>For Second stock </u>

Total dividend from second stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.67 * 4 = $2.68

Since you expect to sell the stock in one year, we have:

Annualized holding period return of second stock = The 1-year HPR for the second stock = (Total dividend from second stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($2.68+ ($36.79 - $34.98)) / $34.98 = 0.1284, or 12.84%

Since the Annualized holding period return of first stock of 32.38% is higher than the Annualized holding period return of second stock of 12.84%. the first stock will provide the better annualized holding period return.

The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.
