Answer:
$577 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The calculation of spending variance for dye costs is shown below:-
Spending variance for dye cost = (Standard rate - Actual variable) × Actual units
= ($0.67 - $13,910 ÷ 19,900) × 19,900
= (0.67 - 0.69899) × 19,900
= $577 Unfavorable
Therefore for computing the spending variance for dye costs we simply applied the above formula.
Answer: b. $106,700
Explanation:
The marketing and administrative expense budget is based on budgeted unit sales, which are 5,500 units for June.
The variable marketing and administrative expense is $1.00 per unit. Which is 5,500 units x $1.00 = $5,500.
The budgeted fixed marketing and administrative expense is $101,200.
To get the cash disbursements for marketing and administrative expenses on the June marketing and administrative expense budget should be Variable costs plus fixed costs.
= $5,500 + $101,200
= $106, 700
The surplus to be determined in this problem is equal to the difference between the money willing to be paid and the value of the purchase. hence for Bob, surplus value is equal to 65- 45 or $20 while that of Bill is equal to 50-45 or $5. The total surplus for both boys is equal to $20 + $5 or $25.
Answer:
Stan appears to satisfy the basic Sec. 911 exclusion requirements for his year of arrival since he will be physically present in France for at least 330 days during his year of arrival. The actual number days for which the exclusion can be claimed depends on the length of time he spent in the United States. The salary, cost-of-living allowance, housing allowance, home leave allowance, and education allowance all are excludable up to the Sec. 911 limitation (calculated on a daily basis). In addition, Stan can claim an exclusion for the housing cost amount minus the base amount (calculated on a daily basis). Both exclusions are denied for the portion of Stan's salary and allowances attributable to his time in the United States. The portion of his employment-related expenses and foreign taxes attributable to the excluded income are unable to be deducted or credited. The foreign-earned income exclusion and housing cost amount exclusion are both elected by claiming such amounts on Form 2555.
Not knowing the amount of the foreign income taxes, and other components of Stan's tax return, it is impossible to know whether Stan should elect out of the Sec. 911 exclusion. Stan may have spent sufficient number of days in the United States on his trip home to need to qualify for the foreign-earned income exclusion under the bona fide foreign resident rules. In such case, he will not qualify for the exclusion until the end of this second calendar year in France. The exclusion would then be available retroactively back to the date on which he established foreign residency status.

Answer:
1. Which of the excluded items represent ongoing costs of running the business and which are one-time "special" costs?
it depends on the company and the actual transactions, e.g. equity based compensation might be a one time special cost because it occurred only once and is doubtful that it happens again. But if the company regularly rewards its top managers with this type of compensation, then it is an ongoing cost. E.g. Tesla awarded a HHHHUUUUUUGGGGGGGEEEEEEE bonus to Elon Musk (worth hundreds of millions) but it was a one time event. While many companies use equity compensation on a regular basis.
Severance and related employee "rebalancing" costs generally take place when a company fires a lot of people because it is cutting down some division or product line. Hopefully, they should never happen, and if they do, it should be only a one time event.
Fees paid to consultants and interest expenses are ongoing costs that will probably occur in the future.
Losses related to the abandonment of excess facility space and a facility fire should be one time events. It would be really bad for them to keep happening (same as severance and rebalancing costs)
