The purchasing agent of the Clampett Company ordered materials of lower quality in an effort to economize on price and in respon

se to the demands of the production manager due to a mistake in production scheduling. The materials were shipped by airfreight at a rate higher than that ordinarily charged for shipment by truck, resulting in an unfavorable materials price variance. The lower quality material proved to be unsuitable on the production line and resulted in excessive waste. In this situation, who should be held responsible for the materials price and quantity variances?

Answer:

The correct answer is: Materials Price Variance: Production Manager

Materials Quantity Variance: Purchasing Agent

Explanation:

The production manager had to buy the materials that are commonly used, as this is an item of great importance in the process of converting the materials, since otherwise there is a risk of becoming waste due to their quality. In the case of the variation presented, each manager or person in charge of the area must supervise that the measurements are well calculated, and that the aspects related to the direct process must be effectively ensured for the good of the operation.

Why are financial intermediaries willing to engage in information collection activities when investors in financial instruments
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

C. Banks make private​ loans; their conclusions on who is creditworthy are not made public.

Explanation:

Investors in financial instruments who engage in information collection face a free-rider problem, which means other investors may be able to benefit from their information without paying for it.

Individual investors, therefore, have inadequate incentives to devote resources to gather information about borrowers who issue securities.

Net working capital decreases when: A. a dividend is paid to current shareholders. B. a new 3-year loan is obtained with the pro
dsp73

Answer:

A. Dividend is paid to current shareholders.

Explanation:

This is simply said to be the aggregate amount of all current asset and also all current liability of an investment. It is used in measuring the short term liability of a business by subtracting the current liability from the current asset.

In some cases, it can be tagged a company’s current assets, such as cash, accounts receivable, inventories of goods etc. Many companies sum their's by calculating cash plus accounts receivable plus inventories, less accounts payable and less accrued expenses. This is why it is seen to decrease when dividend is paid to current shareholders.
