Helix Company produces several products in its factory, including a karate robe. The company uses a standard cost system to assi

st in the control of costs. According to the standards that have been set for the robes, the factory should work 780 direct labor-hours each month and produce 3,900 robes. The standard costs associated with this level of production are as follows:
Total Per Unit of Product
Direct materials $ 78,624 $ 20.16
Direct labor $ 12,870 3.30
Variable manufacturing overhead
(based on direct labor-hours $ 2,340 0.60
$ 24.06
During April, the factory worked only 755 direct labor-hours and produced 4,000 robes. The following actual costs were recorded during the month:
Total Per Unit of Product
Direct materials (14,000 yards) $ 84,000 $ 21.00
Direct labor $ 14,000 3.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 7,200 1.80
$ 26.30
At standard, each robe should require 3.2 yards of material. All of the materials purchased during the month were used in production.
Required:
1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for April: (Input all amounts as positive values. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answers to the nearest dollar amount.)

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

1

Material price variance= (Standard Price-Actual Price) × Actual Qty

= (20.16 ÷ 3.2 - 84000 ÷ 14000) × 14000

= $4200 Favorable

Material Quantity variance= (Standard Qty -Actual Qty ) ×Standard Price

= (4000 ×3.2 - 14000) ×6.3

= $7560 Unfavorable

2

Labour rate variance= (Standard Rate-Actual Rate) ×Actual Hour

= (12870 ÷  780-14000 ÷  755) ×755

= $1542.50 Unfavorable

Labour efficiency variance= (Standard Hour -Actual Hour ) × Standard Rate

= (780 × 4000 ÷  3900 - 755) × 16.50

= $742.50 Favorable

3

Variable Overhead rate variance= (Standard Rate-Actual Rate) × Actual Hour

= (2340 ÷  780-7200 ÷  755) × 755

= $4935 Unfavorable

Variable Overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Hour -Actual Hour ) × Standard Rate

= (780 ×  4000 ÷   3900 - 755) ×  3

= $135 Favorable

liq [111]

Answer:

c) 11%

Explanation:

The question is to determine the rate of return on Groupong Inc's

The rate of return represents an investment's net gain or net loss calculated over a period of time and usually expressed in terms of the percentage of the initial cost of investment.

The rate of return in this question is calculated as follows:

Rate of Return = (The Dividend for the next year/ the current price of the share) + The Growth rate

The dividend for the next year = current year dividend x (1+r), where r is 3.5

= 2.78 x (1+0.035)

=2.78 x 1.035

= (2.8773/38.3) + 0.035

=0.1101 or 11%

Olin [163]

Answer:

$18,000 F

Explanation:

Actual overhead– Overhead Budgeted=

Overhead Controllable Variance

Actual overhead=$194,000

Overhead Budgeted=$212,000

$194,000–$212,000

=$18,000 F

(40,000 ×$3.80) + $60,000

=$152,000+$60,000

= $212,000

Therefore the manufacturing overhead controllable variance is $18,000 F

Answer:

are never final, as managing strategy is an on-going, dynamic process.

Explanation:

In Business management, a strategy can be defined as a set of guiding principles, actions and decisions that an organization combines so as to achieve its business goals, attract customers and possess a competitive advantage over its rivals in the industry.

Business strategy sets the overall direction for the business because it focuses on defining how a business would achieve its goals, objectives, and mission; as well as the funds and material resources required to implement or execute the business plan. The components of a business strategy includes the following;

I. Value.

II. Vision.

III. Mission.

Hence, a company's direction, objectives, and strategy are never final because managing strategy is a continuum or an on-going, dynamic process. Thus, it's never a now and then task.
