Answer: C. equal zero

Explanation:

The mean is average of the portfolio which means that some securities will be more than the mean and some will be less.

Some deviations will be positive, others will be negative.

When these deviations are added together, the negative deviations will cancel out the positive deviations which will lead to the average deviations being 0.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Challenger Factory

The total factory overhead that Challenger Factory will allocate to regular widget production if budgeted production is 75,000 units and actual production for the period is 127,500 units would be:

= $795,600.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Total budgeted factory overhead = $589,600

Total estimated direct labor hours = 376,800

Overhead rate = $589,600/376,800 = $1.56

Direct labor hours per unit of widget = 4 hours

Budgeted production of regular widgets for the period = 75,000 units

Total direct labor hours for the period = 75,000 * 4 = 300,000 hours

Actual production of regular widgets for the period = 127,500

Total direct labor hours for regular widgets = 510,000 (127,500 *4)

Total factory overhead that Challenger Factory will allocate to regular widget production if budgeted production is 75,000 units and actual production for the period is 127,500 units would be:

= 510,000 * $1.56 = $795,600

Item 15Item 15If Beck's Bicycles, Inc.'s income statement shows gross profit of $350 million, with operating expenses of $120 mi
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

$161 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Gross profit = $350 million

Operating expenses = $120 million

Tax rate = 30%

First, we need to find out the income before taxes by subtracting operating expenses from the gross profit then we are able to determine net income after taxes.

Income before tax:

= Gross profit - Operating expenses

= $350 million - $120 million

= $230 million

Net income after taxes:

= Income before tax - Taxes

= $230 million - (0.30 × $230 million)

= $230 million - $69 million

= $161 million
