Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

All the above statement regarding the unemployment rate is true. The unemployment rate can be defined as the rate of people in the labor force who are willing to work and are not able to find work.

The rate of unemployment can not be zero. There is a certain level of unemployment existing all the time in an economy. If we try to reduce this rate, it will lead to increase in inflation.

This rate of unemployment can be calculated by the ratio of total unemployed persons and total labor force.

Performance, polygraph, or drug tests are?
Ivanshal [37]
I am not entirely sure what a performance test is, but I can help with the others. A polygraph is a machine, used usually if you are in legal trouble, to see if you are lying.  While results aren't 100% accurate, you typically can get a gage for if someone committed a crime.  They are also rarely used for interviews, some companies want to see if people are lying on their resumes.  Drug tests are tests that are given to most people with a job, and especially sports players.  Companies especially like to test people for drugs, to see if they might be on an illegal drug that could cause them to work less efficiently.  It also is a liability issue for the company if an employee is on an illegal drug.  Drug tests are typically done at a lab, and you usually have to pee in a cup and have it get tested.

Fresh Foods, a large restaurant chain, needed to determine if it would be cheaper to produce 5,000 units of its main food ingred
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Fresh Foods

Make or Buy Decision:

1. Make the ingredient in-house.

2. Make in-house is more cost effective by $3,000 ($90,000 - 87,000)

3. If 40% of the fixed overhead can be avoided if the ingredient is purchased externally:

Total cost:

To make in-house = $87,000

To buy = $78,000 ($60,000 + $30,000 x 60%)

To buy now becomes more cost effective by $9,000 ($87,000 - 78,000).

Explanation:

a) Management in production companies are always faced with the buy or make decision.  For this type of decision making, the appropriate costs to analyze are the differential (incremental) costs.  These are costs that make a difference between alternatives.

b) Calculation of cost:

                                                                  Make                  Buy

                                                        Total            Unit

Purchase                                                                              $60,000

Direct materials                           $25,000     $5.00

Direct labor                                     15,000       3.00

Variable manufacturing overhead  7,500        1.50

Variable marketing overhead         9,500        1.90

Fixed plant overhead                    30,000       6.00            30,000

Total                                             $87,000    $17.40         $90,000

Total variable costs                     $57,000                        $60,000

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Total standard cost per unit= $71,41 unit

Explanation:

Standard cost is the sum of direct materials, direct labor, and manufacture overhead.

Direct materials:

Each unit of the product contains 3.40 pounds of materials.

The average waste and spoilage per unit produced under normal conditions is 0.10 pounds.

Materials cost $2 per pound, it takes a 5.00% cash discount.

Freight costs $0.45 per pound.

Direct materials= (3,4+0,10)*(2*0,95)+ (0,45*3,5) =$8,20unit

Direct labor:

Each unit requires 2.80 hours of labor.

Setup, cleanup, and downtime 0.10 hours per unit.

The average hourly pay rate of Stefani’s employees is $13.10.

Payroll taxes and fringe benefits are an additional $3.00 per hour.

Direct labor=($13,10*2,9hours)+($3*2,9hours)=$46,69 unit

Manufactured overhead:

Overhead is applied at a rate of $5.90 per direct labor hour.

Overhead=$5,90*2,8hours=$16,52unit

Total standard cost per unit= 8,20+46,69+16,52=$71,41 unit
