The management of Green Energy Manufacturing is analyzing variable overhead variances for the fiscal period just ended. The flex

ible budget called for $176,000 in variable overhead but actual variable overhead was $100,000. In computing the overhead variances, Green’s management discovered that it had used 40,000 pounds of direct material, rather than the budgeted amount of 44,000 pounds. (Pounds of direct material is the single overhead driver of variable overhead). The standard variable overhead rate per pound of direct material is $2.00.
What is Green's variable overhead efficiency variance?
A. $ 8,000 (U)
B. $16,000 (F)
C. $24,000 (U)
D. $ 8,000 (F)

Precision Systems manufactures CD burners and currently sells 18,500 units annually to producers of laptop computers. Jay Wilson
hram777 [196]

Answer:

a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?

estimated production costs per unit:

direct materials $10

direct labor $23

overhead $30

total $63

if we want contribution margin to remain at 40%, then selling price = $63 / (1 - 40%) = <u>$105</u>

to verify our answer, contribution margin = $105 - $63 = $42 / $105 = 40%

b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?

if sales price doesn't change, then contribution margin = $37 (not $40)

units sold to keep profit at $350,000 = ($350,000 + $390,000) / $37 = <u>20,000 units per year</u>

c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.

working at full capacity, sales price $100 (unchanged) and direct labor costs increasing by 15%

                                          capacity 20,000          capacity 25,000

sales revenue                     $2,000,000                  $2,500,000

direct labor                          $460,000                      $575,000

direct materials                   $200,000                      $250,000

overhead                             $600,000                      $750,000

fixed costs                      <u>     $390,000      </u>          <u>      $670,000       </u>

operating revenue              $350,000                      $255,000

The expansion will result in lower operating profits ($95,000 less) so it should be discarded.

Which type of investment would a person with a high-risk tolerance likely choose?​
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

stocks and shares

Explanation:

Usually in investment world the risk profile plays an important role in the process of choosing among the different securities those which best fits to the investor needs. So there are a lot of classifications for risk profile, but the most common would be lower, medium and high risk profile, each one has a different need as follows:

  • Low risk profile: those investors are looking for low rates of return because their goal is to keep the purchasing power of the money despite the inflation, and example of securities which offers this kind of return are the treasury securities .
  • Medium risk profile: this kind of investors seeks for a higher return than low risk, but are conscious that they must have a high possibility of losing money. and example of this kind of securities are the bad risk qualification.
  • high risk profile. those investors are conscious they are exposed to lose all the money invested, but despite that they kept this kind of securities because are looking for a higher return, and example of this securities are stocks of companies, because this kind of securities are more likely to suffer variations in their price, as you can make a lot of money you can lose a lot too.

Helga [31]

Answer:

$456.33

Explanation:

Loan Amount = $15,000

Down payment = $0

Annual Rate = 6%; Monthly rate = 6%/12 = 0.50%

Years = 3; No of month = 3*12 = 36

Monthly payment = PMT(Rate, N, -Loan)

Monthly payment = PMT(0.50%, 36, -15,000)

Monthly payment = $456.3290618

Monthly payment = $456.33

Thus, her monthly payment for the loan is $456.33
