Answer:
Total materials variance = (Actual quantity * Actual price) - (Standard quantity * Standard price)
= 2,850 - (230 * 14.4)
= 462 (Favourable)
Materials price variance = (Standard price - Actual price) * Actual quantity
= [1.8 - (2,850/1,500)] * 1,500
= 150 Unfavourable
Materials quantity variance = (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) * Standard price
= [(230 * 8) - 1,500] * 1.8
= 612 Favourable
Total labour variance = (Actual hours * Actual rate) - (Standard hours * Standard rate)
= 19,458 - (230 * 84)
= 138 Unfavourable
Labour price variance = (Standard rate - Actual rate) * Actual hours
= [14 - (19,458/1,410)] * 1,410
= 282 Favourable
Labour quantity variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) * Standard rate
= [(230 * 6) - 1,410] * 14
= 420 Unfavourable
Answer:
30,000 units
Explanation:
Budgeted sales is 30,000 units
Beginning inventory = 5000 units
Ending inventory = 5000 units
In order to meet the sales of 30,000 units, the sum of budgeted production and beginning inventory must be at least 30,000 units. However, since the company desires to have 5000 units in ending inventory, this sum must be raised to 35,000 units, which means the production needs to 30,000 units
--> Budgeted production = 30,000 + 5000 - 5000
= 30,000 units
Answer:
c.
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in order for it to be enforceable, a writing is required for the employment agreement. This is because the employment requires initial work for a month before receiving payment for the services provided. Unlike the other two purchases, since money is being exchanged directly for a product or service at the exact moment.
Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
19,000 income tax withholding
5,000 FICA withholding
130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500
<span>The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.
</span>
The 5,000 is added twice because the first 5,000 is withheld from the employees salary as the employees share. The employer also has to pay off 5,000 as employer's share to the employee's FICA withholding. Thus, the presence of the 2nd 5,000.
FICA, <span> Federal Insurance Contributions Act,</span> is composed of
1) <span>6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) <span>1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.
