Answer:

6.29%

Explanation:

The computation of the unemployment rate for the month of February is shown below:

Unemployment rate = Number of people unemployed ÷ Labor force

= 325,000 ÷ 5,170,000

= 6.29%

It is always shown in percentage form

Plus it is a ratio between the number of people unemployed and the labor force

Hence, all other information is not relevant. Therefore, ignored it

World Company expects to operate at 80% of its productive capacity of 50,000 units per month. At this planned level, the company
skad [1K]

Answer:

a. $13

b. $20,625 Unfavorable

Explanation:

a. Computation of overhead volume variance is shown below:-

Variable overhead rate = Variable overhead cost ÷ Expected standard hours

= $275,000 ÷ 25,000

= 11 direct labor hour

Fixed overhead rate = Productive capacity ÷ Expected standard hours

= $50,000 ÷ 25,000

= $2 direct labor hour

Total overheard rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed overhead rate

= $11 + $2

= $13

b. The computation of overhead controllable variance is shown below:-

Variable overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours

= $11 × 21,875

= $240,625

Fixed overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours

= $2 × 21,875

= $43,750

Total overhead cost = $13 × 21,875

= $284,375

Actual result = $305,000

Variance = Actual result - overhead cost applied

= $305,000 - $284,375

= $20,625 Unfavorable

Working note:-

Standard direct labor hours = Actual units ÷ Standard hours

= 35,000 × 1.6

= $21,875

Standard units per hour = (Standard capacity × Expected production) ÷ Standard hours

= (50,000 units × 80%) ÷ 25,000 hours

= 1.6 units per hour

Deep Water Mining added $411 to retained earnings last year on sales of $24,646. The administrative expenses were $4,370, deprec
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

It is $18,290.24

Explanation:

Profit after Tax (65%) = addition to retained earnings+dividend paid

                                   = $411 +  $285

                                    = $ 696

Profit before Tax = [100/65] * $ 696

                            = $1070.76

Tax (35%)             = 35% * $1070.76

                            = $374.77

Gross Profit = Profit before tax + Total expenses

                    = $1070.76 + [  $4,370+ $103+ $812]

                    = $6355.76

Cost of Sales= $24,646 -$6355.76

                     = $18,290.24 .

Note

-Dividend is paid is paid from profit after tax

Masteriza [31]

Answer: Joint training

         

Explanation: In simple words, joint training refers to the process in which an organisation or an entity tries to persuade and influence the behavior of their staff by making teaching them any specific kind of technical skill.

    Such kinds of training are very common in defense forces such as military and police force, where team work and relative trust is of high importance. But these kinds of training are also used by other organizations in cases where the number of candidates is large and it is not possible to train each of them individually.
