The company paid its direct labor workers a total of $31,500 for this work, or $9.00 per hour.According to the standard cost card for this meal, it should require 0.50 direct labor-hours at a cost of $8.50 per hour.Required:1. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to prepare 7,200 meals?2. What is the standard labor cost allowed (SH × SR) to prepare 7,200 meals?3. What is the labor spending variance?4. What is the labor rate variance and the labor efficiency variance?(For requirements 3 and 4, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do no round intermediate calculations.).Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:Direct materials: 8 microns per toy at $0.34 per micronDirect labor: 1.4 hours per toy at $6.70 per hourDuring July, the company produced 5,000 Maze toys. The toy's production data for the month are as follows:Direct materials: 78,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $0.33 per micron. 28,000 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.Direct labor: 7,500 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $54,750.Required:1. Compute the following variances for July: (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)a. The materials price and quantity variances.b. The labor rate and efficiency variances.

Answer:

Check the calculations below

Explanation:

Labor rate variance = actual quantity*actual rate - actual quantity*standard rate

actual quantity = 3500 direct labor hours. actual rate = $9 per hour. standard rate = $8.50 per hour

labor rate variance = 3500 hours*$9 per hour - 3500 hours*$8.50 per hour

= $1,750 (Unfavorable)

Labor efficiency variance = actual hours*standard rate - standard hours*standard rate

standard hours = 7200 meals*0.50 direct labor hour per meal = 3600 hours

labor efficiency variance = 3500 hours*$8.50 per hour - 3600 hours*$8.50 per hour

= - $850 (favorable)

Answer:

How many units are in process at May 31?

physical units ending WIP:            740

equivalent units WIP materials:    740

equivalent units WIP conversion: 296

Explanation:

We will add the beginning and started units, then subtract the trasnaferrd out to get the ending WIP inventory.

physical units:

beginning             490

started                1,650

transferred-out<u> (1,400) </u>

ending                  740

Now we will multiply by the percentage of completion to get the equivlent units of WIP on each category:

<u>equivalent units for ending WIP:</u>

materials    740 x 100% = 740

conversion 740 x 40% = 296

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Bond Price  = $951.9633746 rounded off to $951.96

Explanation:

To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, which is the present value of the bond, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is an annual bond, we will use the annual coupon payment,  annual number of periods and annual YTM. The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.  

Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 10% = $100

Total periods remaining (n) = 3

r or YTM = 12%  

 Bond Price = 100 * [( 1 - (1+0.12)^-3) / 0.12]  + 1000 / (1+0.12)^3

Bond Price  = $951.9633746 rounded off to $951.96

Which of the following best explains why the taxes on discontinued operations are reported separately from taxes on continuing o
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The statement that best explains why the taxes on discontinued operations are reported separately from taxes on continuing operations is:

The taxes on discontinued operations are not expected to recur in future years.

Explanation:

Discontinued operations refer to the cessation of some business activities or segments.  They are usually reported as a separate line item.  Therefore, all the gains and losses for that discontinued division must be reported separately on the company's income statement. The purpose is to distinguish them from those of continuing operations.

It is likely that airplane tickets will be increased by 5% each year for the next four years. The cost of the plane ticket to De
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The amount to save now is = $862.03 (to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

In order to solve this, we will compute the end-of-year amounts using the 5% increase each year. This is done as follows:

Year 1 ending = $200

Year 2:

Year 2 beginning price = $200

Note that 5% increase = 5/100 = 0.05

increase in year 2 = 5% of 200 = 0.05 × 200 = 10

Year 2 new price = 200 + 10 = $210

Year 3:

beginning price = $210

increase in year 3 = 0.05 × 210 = $10.5

Year 3 new price = 210 + 10.5 = $220.5

Year 4

beginning price = $220.5

interest in year 4 = 0.05 × 220.5 = 11.025

new price in year 4 = 220.5 + 11.025 = $231.525

Next to calculate the amount needed to pay for one travel ticket per year for the next four years, we will add the prices of the tickets each year as follows:

Total amounts needed = 200 +210 + 220.50 + 231.53 = $862.03
