Answer:
Ending WIP= $13,500
Explanation:
<u>First, we need to calculate the factory overhead:</u>
Factory overhead= 25,000*0.75= $18,750
<u>Now, the ending WIP inventory:</u>
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
68,250 = 11,000 + 27,000 + 25,000 + 18,750 - Ending WIP
Ending WIP= $13,500
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
<u>To calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (17.7 - 17.8)*7,600
Direct labor rate variance= $760 unfavorable
Actual rate= 135,280/7,600= $17.8
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (4*1,800 - 7,600)*17.7
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $7,080 unfavorable
They should be extremely close, since corporate image is what people think of your brand :)
Answer:
Diminishing marginal product of labor.
Explanation:
Remembering the law of diminishing marginal product which states that by additing unit of labour, while keeping other factors constant would over time lead to lesser output of labour.
Thus one may expect a sports team who continues to add players (additional unit of labour) to its roster above the minimum in the field would eventually not lead to increase efficiency in the field since other factors are kept constant such as increase training for players.
Answer:
1. Apart from helping to know the average cost of a product, analyzing fixed and variable cost will help to derive the break even point.
2. Profit will go down
Explanation:
1. The size of the selling price and the variable cost determine contribution per unit of a product. Contribution per unit is Price minus variable cost. This shows the contribution of sales revenue towards covering the fixed cost of a product.
2. Relevant range is the estimated or budgeted activity level which defines a business volume of production or operation, it is both maximum and minimum threshold within which the entity must operate to expect certain level of cost and revenue.
Sometimes fixed costs are fixed within a relevant range of activities and outside such range, fixed cost may become variable, which will all things being equal impact negatively on the price.
Also, within relevant range volume discount may be achieved and outside such range, this may be forfeited which, will also reduce profit all things being equal.
