<span>Close A Market risk is measured by the project's beta coefficient. It is assessed from the standpoint of a well-diversified stockholder. If accepting the project changes the firm’s systematic risk and overall rate of return to investors, it is market risk. Monte Carlo simulation is a computer-generated probability simulation of the most likely outcome, given a set of probable future events. It got its name from its roots in casino gambling. The base-case scenario is the most likely scenario in a capital budgeting analysis. It is the version where all variables are set at the expected result, as opposed to the best-case and worse-case scenarios. </span>

MILLS ALLOCATES MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD TO PRODUCTION BASED ON STANDARD DIRECT LABOR HOURS. MILLS REPORTED THE FOLLOWING ACTUAL R
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1. Compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and fixed overhead cost and volume variances.

  • variable overhead cost variance = $1,000 unfavorable
  • variable efficiency variance = -$1,200 favorable
  • fixed overhead costs = $1,500 unfavorable
  • fixed overhead volume variance = -$100 favorable

2. EXPLAIN (as best you can) why the variances are favorable or unfavorable. Based on cost and efficiency budget standards.

  • variable overhead cost variance is unfavorable because actual variable overhead costs per unit are higher than budgeted.
  • variable efficiency variance is favorable because the company used less direct labor hours than budgeted to produce a higher amount of units (1,600 vs. 2,000).
  • fixed overhead costs are unfavorable because total fixed overhead costs were much higher than budgeted, but most of this variance can be explained by higher output.
  • fixed overhead volume variance are favorable because a higher volume was produced using less hours than budgeted.

Explanation:

Static budget variable overhead $1,200

Actual variable overhead $4,000

Static budget fixed overhead $1,600

Actual fixed overhead $3,100

Static budget direct labor hours 800 hours

Actual direct labor hours 1,600

Static budget number of units 400 units

Actual units produced 1,000

Standard direct labor hours 2 hours per unit

Actual direct labor hours 1.6 per unit

standard variable rate = $1,200 / 400 units = $3 per unit

actual variable rate = $4,000 / 1,000 units = $4 per unit

standard fixed rate = $1,600 / 800 hours = $2 per hour

actual fixed rate = $3,100 / 1,600 hours = $1.9375 per hour

variable overhead cost variance = actual costs - (standard rate x actual units) = $4,000 - ($3 x 1,000) = $1,000 unfavorable

variable efficiency variance = (actual hours x standard rate) - (standard hours x standard rate) = (1,600 × $3) − (2,000 x $3) = $4,800 - $6,000 = -$1,200 favorable

fixed overhead costs = actual overhead costs - budgeted overhead costs = $3,100 - $1,600 = $1,500 unfavorable

fixed overhead volume variance = (actual fixed rate x actual hours) - (standard rate x actual hours) = ($1.9375 x 1,600) - ($ x 1,600) = $3,100 - $3,200 = -$100 favorable

Orange​ juice, a raisin​ bagel, and a cup of coffee from​ Kelly's Koffee Kart cost a total of ​$2.40. Kelly posts a notice annou
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

orange juice 0.80 dollar

Bagel 1 dollar

coffe 0.60 dollar

Explanation:

We construct the equation system:

\left \{ {A+B+C = 2.40} \atop {1.5A+1.2B+C = 3}} \right.

We subtract one from another to get an expression without C:

1.5A+1.2B+C - (A+B+C) = 3   -  2.40

0.5A + 0.2B  = 0.6

Then, we solve in the first part to express B as an expression of A

considering the coffe is worth half of the new cost of A

C = 1.5A / 2 = 0.75A

A + B + C = 2.40

A + B + 0.75A = 2.40

B = 2.40 - 1.75A

And now we replace in the other expression to get A:

0.5A + 0.2(2.40 - 1.75A) = 0.6

0.5A - 0.35A + 0.48 = 0.60

0.15A = 0.12

A = 0.12/0.15 = 0.8

Now we solve for C:

C = 0.75A = 0.6

Last, for B:

A + B + C = 2.40

0.8 + B + 0.6 = 2.40

B = 2.40 - 0.8 - 0.6 = 1
