Answer:

A. $60,000 U

Explanation:

Given that

Budgeted fixed cost = 540,000

Actual fixed cost = 600,000

Recall that,

fixed overhead flexible-budget variance = Actual amount - standard (budgeted) amount

Thus,

Variance = 600,000 - 540,000

= $60,000 Unfavorable

It is unfavorable because the actual cost is higher than the budgeted cost. When actual cost is less than budgeted cost, it is favorable.

Answer:

D) $73,500U

Explanation:

Variance is the difference between standard and actual costs. Standard cost can also be referred to as Budgeted costs. In the tree of total overhead variance, there are two major branches of variances:- Total Variable Overhead Variance and Total Fixed Overhead Variance. Under the total variable overhead variance are two branches which include Expenditure and Efficiency. The total fixed overhead variance include expenditure and volume and under these a e capacity and efficiency respectively.

 In calculating the total fixed overhead variance, the fixed overhead recovery rate, actual production and actual fixed overhead are needed. This can be denoted as: FORR × AP - FO(A). (A) represents at actual. To calculate for the Fixed Overhead Recovery Rate(F.O.R.R), the fixed overhead is divided by standard units.

 Now, we can solve the problem using the above stated formula.

  F.O.R.R = $540,000 ÷ 200 units = $2,700.

Therefore, using the formula,

($2,700 × 195 units) - $600,000

= $526,500 - $600,000

= $73,500A. "A" denotes adverse or unfavorable. This occurs when there is a minus in front of the figure. This particular answer suppose to be -$73,500 but due to this being an amount in a currency and not just a random figure, the minus sign is taken away and the "A" sign attached to it. If it had no minus signs in front, the sign "A" will be changed to "F" signifying Favourable

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

c) $110,000

Explanation:

The computation of the borrowing amount is shown below:

= Value of home × given percentage - current mortgage amount

= $200,000 × 80% - $50,000

= $160,000 - $50,000

= $110,000

For computing the accurate value, we have to deduct the current mortgage amount from the net value of home.

Since only 80% is related to the home value so we take only 80% and rest 20% would be ignored.

The computation of the total period cost is shown below:

Variable selling expense $16,000

Fixed selling expense    $15,000

Variable administrative expense $6,000

Fixed administrative expense  $18,000

Total period Cost            $51,000

ANd, the total fixed cost is

Fixed Manufacturing overheads $30,000  

Fixed selling expenses         $15,000  

fixed admin expenses          $18,000

Total fixed cost                     $63,000

We simply added all the above items

On january 1, 2016, knapp corporation acquired machinery at a cost of $1,250,000. knapp adopted the double-declining balance met
Annette [7]
Cost on January 1 2016 = $1,250,000
Life = 10 years

Therefore,
Double-declining depreciation rate = 2*(1,250,000/10)/1,250,000 = 2*0.1 = 2*10% = 20%
Book value at end of 2016 = 1,250,000 - (1,250,000*20/100) = $1,000,000
Book value at end of 2017 = 1,000,000 - (1,000,000*20/100) = $800,000
Book value at end of 2018 = 800,000 - (800,000*20/100) = $640,000

Changing to straight line depreciation:
Life remaining = 7 years
Book value = $640,000

Depreciation expense per year = 640,000/7 = $91,428.57

Therefore, depreciation expense for 2019 = $91,428.57
