Answer:

d.$4,662.40 unfavorable

Explanation:

Calculation for direct materials price variance

The first step is to find the Actual quantity variance using the formula

Actual quantity variance =Actual units produced* Actual yard used

Let plug in the formula

Actual quantity variance=9,400*4.96 yards

Actual quantity variance=$46,624

Second step is to calculate for the Direct material price variance using this formula

Direct material price variance= ( Standard price -Actual price)* Actual quantity used

Let plug in the formula

Direct material price variance=($1.93-$2.03)*$46,624

Direct material price variance=(-0.1*46,624)

Direct material price variance=-$4,662.40 Unfavorable

Therefore the Direct material price variance will be $4,662.40 Unfavorable

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

(B). 50 cents

Explanation:

<u>Marginal cost</u><u> is the cost incurred by producing or purchasing one more unit of an item.</u>

If Jordan buys two tacos and a medium drink, it will cost him $2 and 50 cents or 250 cents (80 + 80 + 90).

Stock dividends and stock splits should, at least conceptually, have the same effect on shareholders' wealth. True or false?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

The dividend in shares is a distribution of benefits, through which a corporation distributes to its shareholders shares released from the issuance itself or shares of open stock companies that the company owns.

A division of shares is a corporate action that increases the number of shares in circulation of the company by dividing them, which in turn decreases its price. The market capitalization of the share, however, remains the same, just as the value of the $ 100 bill does not change if it is exchanged for two of $ 50. For example, with a division of shares of 2 by 1, each shareholder receives an additional share for each share held, but the value of each share is reduced by half: two shares now equal the original value of a share before the division .
