Answer:
wages and salaries activity variance= $1,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard:
Fixed= $1,230
Variable= $240 er birth
Actual:
101 births.
The actual wages and salaries for the month was $26,470.
To calculate the activity variance for wages, we need to use the following formula:
wages and salaries activity variance= (actual costs - standards costs)
standards= 1,230 + 240*101= $25,470
wages and salaries activity variance= (26,470 - 25,470)
wages and salaries activity variance= $1,000 unfavorable
Answer:
a) true
Explanation:
2/10 net 30 means that if the costumer pays within 10 days, he will be offered 2% discount, otherwise the amount is due in 30 days in full.
DSO means average number of days the company takes to receive payment from customers of credit sales.
Since the DSO of a firm given is 28 days, which is lower than the 30 days credit period normally offered by the company, therefore it may indicate that the firm's credit department is operating effectively.
Hence, answer is a) true
USDA actually has several stickers/labels/stamps that could have different meanings. However, the sticker most likely indicates that the chicken has passed for inspection while the grading stamp means that the poultry processor also requested to have the quality of the chicken evaluated and graded.
The USDA has separate programs for the inspection and for the grading of meet. The former is mandatory and guarantees the wholesomeness of the meat. This means that the animal from which the meat was taken from is not diseased and that the meat is clean and fit for human consumption. Inspection programs are paid for by public funds.
However, USDA also has a grading program, which is paid for by the meat processors. The grading program checks and classifies the meat according to its quality (e.g. flavor, juiciness, and tenderness). Poultry with a Grade A poultry for example is one which does not have "defects" such as feathers, discoloration and bruising.
Answer:
<u>Vertical Linkages </u>
Explanation:
A linkage refers to a connect between two parts. In the organizational context, it refers to communication and coherence between different departments and levels.
Vertical linkage refers to the chain of command and assignment of responsibilities by top level management, vertically downwards to the lower level or operational level management.
Such a chain serves as a mode of communication and as means coordination within an organization.
Activities are performed and tasks are executed by the lower level management, which are consistent and in alignment with the top level management goals. The employees at lower level update their progress to the top level w.r.t the extent goals and targets have been met.
An organization may create such linkages via rules of hierarchy, creation of levels or establishment of formal system of management.
So during adverse times, such a linkage helps since, everybody is aware in advance what they are supposed to do and there is no ambiguity.
Answer:
Option (E) is correct.
Explanation:
For utility maximization,
Bob's consumption of Housing and food should be such that:

Here,

= 50

=20
Bob is not maximizing utility, as these two terms are not equal(50 > 20).
Since the marginal utility per rupee spent on housing is greater than that on food.
Hence, Bob can increase his utility just by consuming more of housing and less of food.
