DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Number of car washed is 92

So option (a) is correct answer

Explanation:

It is given that 4 workers can wash 80 cars per day

Means initially 80 cars are washed per day

And it is given that rate of car wash is $5 per car

Now price of workers is $60 per day

Bartoletti Fabrication Corporation has a standard cost system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to products on the basi

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Actual variable overhead rate = $\frac{Actual variable overhead}{Actual Hours}$ = $\frac{66,170}{6,400} = 10.34$

Therefore variance with the budgeted standard variable overhead

= (Standard Overhead rate - Actual overhead rate) $\times$ Actual Hours

= ($9.70 - $10.34) $\times$ 6,400 = -$4,096

And Fixed Overhead variance = Standard Fixed Overhead - Actual Fixed Overhead = $69,000 - $74,000 = -$5,000

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = -$4,096 + -$5,000 = -$9,096

Since the value of variance is negative it means the expense both variable and fixed are over absorbed, which means it is unfavorable.

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable

Answer:

$0.15

Explanation:

Interest is calculated using the formula below.

I = P x i x t

where I = interest

P= principal amount.

i=interest rate

t=time

Interest is given as an annual percentage. A 2.75 % interest will translate to 2.75/100 divided by 12 monthly interest. Therefore, the applicable interest rate is 0.00229 %

interest for the month will be

i=$65 x 0.00229 x 1

The Besnier Company had $250 million of sales last year, and it had $75 million of fixed assets that were being operated at 80%

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

$312.5 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Besnier Company's sales last year = $250 million

Fixed assets last year = $75 million

Previous operating capacity of fixed assets = 80%

Sales at full capacity:

= Previous sales ÷ Previous Capacity

= $250 million ÷ 80%

= $312.5 million

Therefore, if the company had operated at full capacity then the sales could have been $312.5 million.
