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.

52,500 AR

year of 365 days

<u>Days Sales Outstanding</u>

\frac{52,500}{425,000}\times 365 = 45.088 = 45.09

olga55 [171]

Answer:1. $7720  

2. $7945

3. $7758

Explanation: 1. First in First out method which means the first inventory to be purchased by company will be the first to be sold.  

Total cost of Sales   = Total number of units Sold * Total Cost of inventory sold    

                                  = 100units*$5+ 300units*$5.30+ 200units*$5.35 + 450units*$5.60

                                   =$7720

Total units sold=1450  we started from first inventory which was the balance of inventory of 100 units downwards up to the 1450th unit sold that was purchased on the 26th of April by the company.

2. Last in first out method is where the last bought inventory is sold first.

Total cost of sales= Total number of units sold * Total cost of units sold =200units$*5.80+ 600units*$5.60+ 200units*$5.35+300units*$5.30+150units*$5.1

=$7945

Total units sold still 1450 but we calculated the cost from the last purchased unit from 30th April to the 1450th unit sold which was on the 12th of April.

3. Average Cost = (Sum of all costs/Total number of costs)* total units sold

                     = (($5+$5.1+$5.3+$5.35+$5.6+$5.8)/6)* 1450

=$7769.58

Ber [7]

Answer:

Benchmark.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Mr. and Mrs. Smith were interested in purchasing a vacant lot. However, they first wanted the property surveyed. When the surveyor came out to measure the property he began measuring from the iron spike embedded in the middle of the street. In this case, the iron spike would be known as benchmark.

In real estate, benchmark can be defined as an indicator which is used by individuals or group of developers to measure and define properties such as a land. Iron spikes and wood stakes could be used as a benchmark for indicating ownership or measurement of a property.
