N76 [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

b) Direct materials price.

Explanation:

The purchasing manager would be associated to the quantity purchased and for the purchase price it is bought.

Therefore, labor variances are not his consideration.

And also in material variances we know, direct material quantity variance is calculated for the quantity <em>used</em> in production and not the quantity purchased, although the later is dealt by purchase manager the former relates to production manager.

Purchase manager is responsible and concentrates on the price at which the direct material is bought.

Thus, the correct option is

b) Direct materials price.

The only way to decrease your lifestyle budget is by completely eliminating an item.
N76 [4]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A budget is a financial plan used for the estimation of revenue and expenditures of an individual, organization or government for a specified period of time, often one year. Budgets are usually compiled, analyzed and re-evaluated on periodic basis.

The first step of the budgeting process is to prepare a list of each type of income and expense that will be part of the budget.

A lifestyle can be defined as the way and manner an individual chooses to live his or her life. Similarly, a lifestyle budget comprises the cost of goods and services an individual has chosen to spend his or her money on.

Basically, completely eliminating an item isn't the only way to decrease a lifestyle budget because there could be similar items that even cost way more than the eliminated item.

Some of the benefits of having a budget is that it aids in setting goals, earmarking revenues and resources, measuring outcomes and planning against contingencies.
