Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": specialize in tasks that take advantage of their individual abilities and skills.

Explanation:

Division of labor implies determining what tasks, skills, and attitudes are necessary for each job position in an organization so employers assign workers a specific duty that matches their capabilities and qualifications. The division of labor is based on the specialization of activities to maximize efficiency.

Companies implementing division of labor tend to have a job description document where employees' responsibilities are well-defined.

Savatey [412]

Answer and explanation:

the table below shows the impact of dropping beta product

Loss of Contribution Margin if Beta is Dropped (75,000*64) -$4,800,000

Traceable Fixed Manufacturing Overhead (123,000*33) $4,059,000

Incremental Contribution Margin from Additional Alpha Sales (15,000*72)

$1,080,000

Increase in Net Operating Income if Beta is Dropped $339,000

Notes:

Contribution Margin Per Unit (Beta) = 150 (Selling Price) - 15 (Direct Material) - 28 (Direct Labor) - 20 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 23 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $64 per unit

Contribution Margin Per Unit (Alpha) = 195 (Selling Price) - 40 (Direct Material) - 34 (Direct Labor) - 22 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 27 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $72 per unit

g On June 30, the value of the account is 157.50. On December 31, the value of the account is X. Using the time weighted method,

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

236.23

Explanation:

The computation of X is shown below:-

As per the time-weighted method

The 6-month yield

= (40 ÷ 50) × (80 ÷ 60) × (157.50 ÷ 160) - 1

= 5%

Annual equivalent = (1.05)^2 - 1

= 10.25%

1 - year yield = (40 ÷ 50) × (80 ÷ 60) × (175 ÷ 160) × (X ÷ 250) - 1

= 0.1025

X(0.004667) = 1.1025

X = 236.23

Therefore on December 31st the value of account of X = 236.25
