The number of items
in a product line represents the product line length and the total number of
product lines a company carries represents the product width mix. Product line is a group of products that are related
because they are marketed through the same types of outlets, falls within given

Answer:
c. 5
Explanation:
L Q MPL (ΔinQ/ΔinL) VMPL
4 52
5 60 8 80
6 66 6 60
7 70 4 40
8 72 2 20
Note: Labour hired per day = L, Total product = Q, Marginal Product of labor=MPL, VMPL =Price*MPL
A firm will maximize the profit by increasing the number of labor as long as VMPL is higher than or equal to the wage rate. In this case, we observe that VMPL ($80)>wage rate ($75) for L=5 but VMPL ($60)<wage rate ($75) for L=6. So, the optimal number of labor to be hired is 5.

Standard costing is intensive in application as it calls for detailed analysis of variances.
In standard costing, variances are usually revealed through accounts.
Standard costs represent realistic yardsticks and are, therefore, more useful for controlling and reducing costs.
