Answer:
Volume Variance= $ 20,000 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The Volume Variance is the difference between actual production (AP) and budgeted production (BP) for a period multiplied by the standard fixed overhead rate (SR)
Volume Variance= (AP-BP) *SR = (47500- 50,000)* 400,000/50,000=
= 2,500 * 8= $ 20,000 Unfavorable
Whenever actual production is less than the budgeted production the fixed overhead charged to production is less than the budgeted cost the volume variance is adverse.
Answer:
Explanation:
A point on U=800 is (5, 16)
From BL:
400*F+100D =4000
400*5+100*16 =3600<4000
Therefore u = 800 affordable.
U= 1200
F = 1200/10D
If D = 20
F = 1200/200
=6
Now from BL:
400*6+100*20= 2400+2000=4400>4000
Not affordable.
Maximization:
L = 10DF+ʎ[100*D+400*F – 4000]
Differentiating wrt D and F:
dL/dD = 10F + ʎ*100
dL/dF = 10D +ʎ*400
equating to zero;
ʎ= -F/10
ʎ=-D/40
equating the two:
F/10=D/40
D = 4F
From BL:
400*F+100*D = 4000
400F+100*4F = 4000
800F = 4000
F = 5
D = 4*5=20
Answer: C. Colombia has an absolute advantage producing coffee, and Cuba has an absolute advantage producing oranges
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Colombia spends 2 hours producing coffee and 6 hours producing oranges, and Cuba spends 3 hours producing coffee and 1 hour producing oranges.
Since Columbia spends a lesser time producing coffee and Cuba spends a lesser time producing oranges, it means that Colombia has an absolute advantage producing coffee, and Cuba has an absolute advantage producing oranges.
