The budget is $4,240.

There are 164 kittens and 24 puppies.
Let
x = amount spent on each kitten
y =  amount spent on each puppy.

The cost for each puppy is twice a much as that for a kitten. Therefore
y = 2x                  (1)

The available amount is $4,240, therefore
164x + 24y = 4240          (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
164x + 24(2x) = 4240
212x = 4240
x = $20
y = 2x = $40

Answer: $40 for each puppy.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

a. Determine the standard cost per unit for direct materials and direct labor.

standard direct labor rate = $20 x 30/60 minutes = $10 per faucet

standard direct materials rate = $1.80 x 2.5 lbs = $4.50 per faucet

b. Determine the direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance.

direct materials price variance = (actual price x actual quantity) - (standard price x actual quantity) = ($1.95 x 13,000) - ($1.80 x 12,500) = $25,350 - $22,500 = $2,850 UNFAVORABLE

direct materials quantity variance = (standard price x actual quantity) -(standard price x standard quantity) = ($1.80 x 13,000) - ($1.80 x 12,500) = $23,400 - $22,500 = $900 UNFAVORABLE

total direct materials variance = direct materials price variance + direct materials quantity variance = $2,850 + $900 = $3,750 UNFAVORABLE

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

This is a semiannual paying coupon, meaning interest are paid twice in year.

N(Number of periods) = 30periods ( 15 years x 2)

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6 percent

PV(present value or market price) = ?

PMT( coupon payment) = $50

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 30; I/Y = 6; PMT = 50; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= -862.35

Therefore, the market price of the bond is $862.35.
