Answer:

a) The materials price variance 19026.33 unfav

b) Material Quantity Variance= $ 267 Unfav

c) Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 6127 Unfav

d) Direct labor Efficiency variance= 7710 Fav

e) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= 13099 fav

f) Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= 3256.25  unfav

Explanation:

<em>First We find the missing figures such as standard quantity ,hours allowed , actual price, rate. Then we list the formulae to use. After that we put in the values of the amounts in the formulae to get the results. Unfavorable variances are those in which the actual quantities are greater than the standard quantities or input .</em>

Kropf Inc.

Given Standards

Direct materials 9.30 liters $ 8.90 per liter

<em>Standard Quantity allowed = 9.3 * 11500= 106950 Litres </em>

Direct labor 0.70 hours $ 25.70 per hour

Variable manufacturing overhead 0.70 hours $ 7.80 per hour

<em>Standard Hours Allowed </em>= $ 0.7 *11500= 8050

Actual Results Given

Actual output 11,500 units

Raw materials purchased 107,900 liters

Actual cost of raw materials purchased $ 979,500

<em>Actual Price</em><em>=</em> Cost/ Purchases=  $ 979,500/107,900 = $9.08

Raw materials used in production 106,980 liters

Actual direct labor-hours 7,750 hours

Actual direct labor cost $ 205,302

<em>Actual Rate</em><em>=</em>$ 205,302 / 7,750 = $ 26.49

Actual variable overhead cost $ 55,414

Actual Overhead Rate= $ 55,414/7,750 = $ 7.15

<u>Formulae to use </u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

<u>Working</u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

The materials price variance = ( $9.08*106,980 )- ($ 8.90 *106,980)

The materials price variance = (971148.38)- (952122)=19026.33 unfav

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

Material Quantity Variance=($ 8.90 *106,980)-($ 8.90 *106,950)= $ 267 Unfav

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

Direct Labor Rate variance= ( 7,750*$ 26.49)- (7,750*$ 25.70)= $ 6127 Unfav

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

Direct labor Efficiency variance=(7,750*$ 25.70)-(8050*$ 25.70)= 7710 Fav

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-(7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414- 42315= 13099 fav

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)- (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.15)=42315- 38788.15= 3256.25  unfav

What do you mean by public service?​
Inessa05 [86]

A public service is something provided by the government or another official entity for the benefit of all members of a society or community, such as health care, transportation, or garbage management.

Any service designed to meet the specific needs of the total population of a community is considered a public service. People who live in a government jurisdiction can access public services directly from public sector organizations or through public financing of private companies or nonprofits (or even as provided by family households, though terminology may differ depending on context). Other public services are provided on behalf of or in the best interests of the citizens of a government. The phrase refers to a social consensus .

Kenneth, a food blogger, is paid a handsome fee by a new restaurant to write an article about it. The assignment came with a rid
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Sense of independence

Explanation:

Basically Kenneth is writing a draft and signing it. The client, will probably change some (if not most) of Kenneth's article, specially any part where Kenneth might criticize the restaurant's service or exaggerate any good service provided by the restaurant. The content of the article itself will be determined by the client.

Kenneth should be independent and impartial when writing an article critique, since writing what the restaurant wants is simply advertising. Sadly this is very common on certain industries, that is why all the movies are excellent or the best of all times, no matter how bad they are.

Which statement below best describes the accounting equation? Multiple Choice The change in retained earnings equals net income
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The correct answer is Resources of the company equal creditors' and owners' claims to those resources.

Explanation:

It can be used to determine that the income or income of the consumer is exactly equal to the expense (purchase) of goods, for the determined period of consumption. In other words, by adding the value spent on the acquisition of goods "x" and goods "y". To have such values it is enough to multiply the number of possible units to acquire - in each of the points - by their respective price and then add them; This can be done at any point in the price line.
