Porter Company uses standard costs for its manufacturing division. Standards specify 0.1 direct labor hours per unit of product.
kkurt [141]

Answer:

1,370.85 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Standard rate :

= Budgeted variable overhead costs ÷ Budgeted direct labor hours

= $13500 ÷ 640

Direct labor hours = $21.09 per direct labor hour

Standard time to produce goods :

= Budgeted direct labor hours  ÷ Production volume

= 640 ÷ 6,400

= 0.10 hours

VOH Efficiency Variance

= ( SH − AH ) × SR

where,

SH are standard direct labor hours allowed

AH are the actual direct labor hours

SR is the standard variable overhead rate

(SH − AH ) × SR

= [(4,200 × 0.10) - 485] × $21.09

= (420 - 485) × $21.09

= 1,370.85 Unfavorable

Explain briefly why social workers should take appropriate personal safety training and practice safety measures

MIT economist Jerry Housman has estimated the price elasticity of demand for Post Raisin Bran cereal to be -2.5 and the price el
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The demand for Post Raisin Brand cereal is: ELASTIC  

the demand for all types of breakfast cereals is: INELASTIC

Explanation:

To calculate the price elasticity of demand (PED) we can use the following formula:

PED = % change in quantity / % change in price

  • If PED > 1, the demand is price elastic
  • If PED = 1, the demand is price unitary
  • If PED < 1, the demand is price inelastic

*The PED always results in a negative number, e.g. price deceases, quantity increases, but for practical reasons we convert the negative number into a positive (we use absolute values) when we are determining the elasticity.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

$ 0

Under monopolistic competition, firms reach equilibrium in the long-run: this equilibrium is a point in which the marginal cost of producing one additional unit of ouput are the same as the marginal revenue from the sale of the same additional unit of output.

In other words, in the long-run, firms under monopolistic competition can only break-even, they do no obtain economic profits.

You own 310 shares of stock in a firm that currently sell for $55 per share. The company has announced a dividend of $3.20 per s
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The value of your portfolio on May 3 is $16,058.

Explanation:

Since it is assumed that there is no tax, the value of a share on ex-dividend date is the current share per share minus the announced dividend per share share. Therefore, we have:

Price per share on ex-dividend date = Current share per share - Announced dividend per share share = $55 - $3.20 = $51.80

Therefore, the value of your portfolio on May 3 which is the ex-dividend date can be calculated as follows:

Portfolio value on May 3 = Number of shares owned * Price per share on ex-dividend date = 310 * $51.80 = $16,058

Therefore, the value of your portfolio on May 3 is $16,058.
