Answer:

a) The materials price variance 19026.33 unfav

b) Material Quantity Variance= $ 267 Unfav

c) Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 6127 Unfav

d) Direct labor Efficiency variance= 7710 Fav

e) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= 13099 fav

f) Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= 3256.25 unfav

Explanation:

First We find the missing figures such as standard quantity ,hours allowed , actual price, rate. Then we list the formulae to use. After that we put in the values of the amounts in the formulae to get the results. Unfavorable variances are those in which the actual quantities are greater than the standard quantities or input .

Kropf Inc.

Given Standards

Direct materials 9.30 liters $ 8.90 per liter

Standard Quantity allowed = 9.3 * 11500= 106950 Litres

Direct labor 0.70 hours $ 25.70 per hour

Variable manufacturing overhead 0.70 hours $ 7.80 per hour

Standard Hours Allowed = $ 0.7 *11500= 8050

Actual Results Given

Actual output 11,500 units

Raw materials purchased 107,900 liters

Actual cost of raw materials purchased $ 979,500

Actual Price= Cost/ Purchases= $ 979,500/107,900 = $9.08

Raw materials used in production 106,980 liters

Actual direct labor-hours 7,750 hours

Actual direct labor cost $ 205,302

Actual Rate=$ 205,302 / 7,750 = $ 26.49

Actual variable overhead cost $ 55,414

Actual Overhead Rate= $ 55,414/7,750 = $ 7.15

Formulae to use

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Working

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

The materials price variance = ( $9.08*106,980 )- ($ 8.90 *106,980)

The materials price variance = (971148.38)- (952122)=19026.33 unfav

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

Material Quantity Variance=($ 8.90 *106,980)-($ 8.90 *106,950)= $ 267 Unfav

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

Direct Labor Rate variance= ( 7,750*$ 26.49)- (7,750*$ 25.70)= $ 6127 Unfav

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

Direct labor Efficiency variance=(7,750*$ 25.70)-(8050*$ 25.70)= 7710 Fav

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-(7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414- 42315= 13099 fav

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)- (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.15)=42315- 38788.15= 3256.25 unfav

You are investing $500 today. If it is compounded semi-annually at an annual interest rate of 13% for the next 5 years, your inv

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this question, we are expected to know the amount a certain investment would have grown to after 5 years.

Mathematically, the amount is calculated by the formula below:

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

The parameters have the following values: A = ? P = $500 r = 13% = 13/100 = 0.13 n = 2 ( semi-annually means two times a year) and t = 5 years

A = 500( 1 + 0.13/2)^(2 * 5)

A = 500(1 + 0.065)^10

A = 500( 1.877)

A = 938.56 or simply $939

Answer:

(A) Principle of Supply and Demand

Explanation:

In economic theory, the law of the organic market is viewed as one of the significant standards administering an economy. It is depicted as the state though supply expands the cost will in general drop or increase, and as request builds, the price will in general increment or the other way around. The increase in demand is equivalent to moving the blue line to one side. A model would be twice the same number of clients needing to purchase the item because of good verbal exchange and promoting.

Your buddy in mechanical engineering has invented a money machine. The main drawback of the machine is that it is slow. It takes

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) We shall calculate the NPV of the project . If it is positive , then money can be invested

Cash outflow in the beginning =1000

Present value of perpetual annuity of 100 at 9.5 %

100 / .095

= 1052.63

which is more than initial cash outflow

So NPV is positive

Hence money can be invested.

b )

If machine takes one year to build , first year cash outflow of 100 will be absent

Present value of 100 after 1 year

= 100 / 1.095

= 91.32

So present value of annuity

= 1052.63 - 91.32

= 961.31

This is less than 1000 so

NPV is negative.

Hence money can not be invested.
