Answer: $3,875 Favorable

Explanation: We can compute direct labor efficiency variance by using following formula :-

Direct labor efficiency variance = standard rate ( actual hours - standard hours)

where,

standard hours = 5,500units * 0.5 hour = 2750 hours

actual hours = 3,000 hours

standard rate = $15.5

putting the values into equation we get :-

Direct labor efficiency variance =  $15.5  ( 3,000 - 2750)

                                                    = $3,875 Favorable

Answer:

Yo.Down Inc.

Determination of Support Department 1 costs to be allocated to each production department:

                                      Production        Production         Production

                                      Department 1    Department 2   Department 3

Support Department 1    $96,000            $6,000           $18,000

Explanation:

a) Cost allocation of Support Department 1:

1) Rate of allocation = Total Support Department 1's costs divided by the total of the cost drivers

= $120,000/2000 = $60 per cost driver

2) Production Department 1 = $60 x 1,600 = $96,000

Production Department 2 = $60 x 100 = $6,000

Production Department 3 = $60 x 300 = $18,000

3) The direct method is one of the three methods for allocating support or service department costs to the production departments in order to ensure the full inclusion of overhead costs in the production costs.  As the name goes, the costs of service departments are allocated to only production departments individually.  This method is not like the step method of cost allocation where the costs of service departments are allocated to other service departments, starting with the department with the highest costs, followed by the next, until all the costs of service departments are allocated to production.  However, no service department whose total costs have been allocated will be allocated any costs.  The last method of cost allocation is the reciprocal method, which is a more complicated method that produces more accurate results, by using equations to establish relationships between the departments.

swenson Saws produces bows, frame, dovetail, and tenon saws used by craft furniture makers. During an 8-hour shift, a saw is pro
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Given: Total shift time = 8 hours = 8 * 60 = 480 minutes

time required for production of one saw = 6 minutes

Demand for Bow saw = Demand for frame saw = Demand for dovetail saw = 1/2 * Demand of Tenon saw

a) Mixed model schedule:

Mixed model schedule

Product no. per batch

Bow Saw 1

Frame Saw 1

Dovetail Saw 1

Tenon Saw 2

Total 5

Therefore 2 Tenon Saw, and each bow, frame, and dovetail saws will be produced before the cycle is repeated.

b) 2 Tenon Saw, 1 bow, 1 frame, and 1 dovetail saws will be produced under production sequence for one unit production.

The length of cycle will be 5*6=30 minutes i.e. the cycle will repeat once in 30 minutes for 8 hours means totally it will repeat 16 times during one shift.

c) Number of saws Swenson produce in one shift = Number of Bow saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Frame saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Dovetail saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Tenon saw Swenson produce in one shift

B.

1. Ending material inventory = Material purchased - Used material in production

= 168,500 - 149,250

= $19,250

2. Ending work in Process inventory = Material used in production + Direct labor + Factory overhead - Transferred of work in process to finished goods

= 149,250 + 360,000 + 120,000 - 600,000

=$29,250

3. Ending finished goods inventory = Transfer from work in progress - Cost of goods sold

= 600,000 - 525,000

= $75,000

butalik [34]

Answer:

Outside vendors specializing in all aspects of benefits administration would provide improved support to the firm's employees.

Explanation:

Shared services HR teams provide specialized support of day-to-day transactional HR activities to the company's employees by focusing on using centralized call centers and outsourcing arrangements with vendors (like benefits providers). By utilizing HR shared services, Whitman and the other managers can now devote more time to other HR matters while improving benefits enrollment and coverage by deferring those questions to benefits specialists.
