Answer:

The answer is Sample Group.

Explanation:

A sample group is a small group selected by researchers to represent the most important characteristics of an entire population.

A sample group can be defined as the subset of a population. Basically researchers target a small group of population in order to have information about the whole population.

For example, we can ask the random 100 people present at a football match about their jobs and interests. Here Sample is 100 people, whereas the population is all the people in the stadium.

A sample group is a small group selected by researchers to represent the most important characteristics of an entire population.  For example, if I want to learn about students’ attitudes about taking elective courses at a specific university, I would get a representative sample from among all the students enrolled at the university and conduct a survey with them.  Those that take part in the survey are called participants and the larger group (all the students at the university) are called the target population.

The importance of connecting pay to performance is a suitable topic when discussing ethics. A lot of companies do not link pay to ethical behavior but pay is based on entitlement and custom.

o-na [289]

Answer:

Fixed overhead application rate

= <u>Budgeted fixed overhead</u>

  60,000 hrs

= $1.90 per direct labour hour

Amount of overhead applied to job X387:     $

Variable overhead $4.90 x 170 hours         = 833

Fixed overhead $1.90 x 170 hours               = 323

                                                                            1,156

Then, we will calculate the overhead applied to Job X387 by multiplying the fixed and variable application rate by actual direct labour hours of 170 hours.
