Answer: a) an increase in the Equilibrium price of "regular" cars.
Explanation:
It is stated that the automobile companies use their inputs to make either the <em>hybrid cars</em> or the <em>regular cars</em>.
If the price of the <em>Hybrid cars</em> rises sharply, Automobile companies will make more <em>Hybrid cars</em> so as to take advantage of the situation and make more profit.
This would reduce the amount of inputs that they have available for <em>regular cars</em> and so they will make less <em>regular cars. </em>
As this supply of <em>regular cars</em> decreases,the supply curve will shift to the left and the price will increase to cater for this reduction in supply.
Answer:
$24,160 favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the total contribution margin sales volume variance is given below:
The Budgeted contribution margin per pound of MT is
= $40 - $20
= $20 per pound
Now the budgeted contribution margin per pound of ET is
= $60 - $30
= $24 per pound
MT's contribution margin sales volume variance is
= (Actual sales quantity - Budgeted sales quantity) × Budgeted contribution margin per pound
= (3960 - 4000) × $20
= $800 Unfavorable
ET's contribution margin sales volume variance is
= (Actual sales quantity - Budgeted sales quantity) × Budgeted contribution margin per pound
= (5,040 - 4000) × $24
= $24,960 favorable
Now the total contribution margin sales volume is
= $800 unfavorable + $24,960 favorable
= $24,160 favorable
Answer:
Voidable Contract
Explanation:
Voidable Contract
This is a type of contract or legal agreement in which any of the parties involved or the both parties may chose to render it unenforceable for a given number of reasons. This type us different from a void contract in that, it is a valid contract which may either be affirmed or rejected by both or either parties.
Some reasons that may lead to the withdrawal of the contract are misinterpretation, coercion and fraud etc.
It is a valid contract that can be declared invalid. It is different from VOID as earlier pointed out as a void contract cannot be enforced by either party. Examples of voidable contract are found in real estate contract, lawyer contract and so on.
Answer:
Standard price= $6.1
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The quantity of direct materials used 3,800 lbs. Actual unit price of direct materials $6 per lb. Units of finished product manufactured 1,820 units Standard direct materials per unit of finished product 2 lbs.
Direct materials quantity variance—unfavorable $976 Direct materials price variance—favorable $380.
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
380= (SP - 6)3,800
6.1= standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
976= (1820*2 - 3,800)*SP
6.1= standard price
