A. True
Explanation:
Internal rate of return abbreviated as IRR, is a capital budgeting technique used to evaluate the profitability of a potential project or an investment. In calculating the IRR, the net present value of the project's cash inflows is set at zero. Getting the actual value of the IRR is through trial and error, or specially programmed software.
IRR shows the growth rate a project or an investment is expected to generate. The higher the value, the better. As a rule, only projects whose IRR is greater than the minimum required rate of return should be accepted. The required rate of return is the same as the cost of capital for the project.
Answer:
a. Standard direct labor rate per hour = Hourly wage rate + Payroll taxes + Fringe benefits
Standard direct labor rate per hour = $16.70 + $0.60 + $1.40
Standard direct labor rate per hour = $18.70
b. Standard direct labor hours per gallon = Actual production time + Rest periods and cleanup + Setup and downtime
Standard direct labor hours per gallon = 1.60 hours + 0.30 hours + 0.20 hours
Standard direct labor hours per gallon = 2.1 hours
c. Standard labor cost per gallon = Standard direct hours per gallon * Standard direct labor rate per hour
Standard labor cost per gallon = 2.1 hours * $18.70
Standard labor cost per gallon = $39.27
