Answer:
1) The correct answer is letter "C": spending on goods to be used in future production.
2) The correct answer is letter "B": is considered unsold inventory and counted as a part of investment in current GDP.
Explanation:
1) The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) considers four (4) components: <em>Consumption, Investment, Government, </em>and <em>Net Exports</em> (exports-imports). Investments refer to all goods that are purchased to produce other goods in the future. Final goods to be used or to replace others do not fall into this category.
2) The output of a company is computed within the GDP. Even if the output is not sold after production but it is recorded as part of an organization's inventory, it will be considered in the calculation of the GDP of the year when the production of the good took place.
Answer:
C. $34,500
Explanation:
Given the above information, applied fixed overhead is computed as;
= Standard hours allowed for actual production × Predetermined rate
Standard hours allowed for actual production = 11,500
Predetermined rate = $3 per hour
Then,
Applied fixed overhead
= 11,500 hours × $3 per hour
= $34,500
The standard quantity that is produces is multiplied to the standard price. The product is subtracted to the quantity variance and will be divided to the standard price. The product you have acquired will be the units that are produced.
4,500 pounds x $2.50 = 11,250
11,250 - $375 = 10,875
10,875 / $2.50 = 4,350
Answer: There are 4,350 units produced.
