Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (5 - 4.95)*14,000

Direct material price variance= $700 favorable

Actual price= 69,300 / 14,000= $4.95

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (9*1,500 - 14,000)*5

Direct material quantity variance=  $2,500 unfavorable

<u>To calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

<u></u>

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (5*1,500 - 7,600)*10

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $1,000 unfavorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (10 - 10.6)*7,600

Direct labor rate variance= $4,560 unfavorable

Actual rate= 80,560 / 7,600= $10.6

Your investment has a 20% chance of earning a 30% rate of return, a 50% chance of earning a 10% rate of return, and a 30% chance
stellarik [79]

Answer:

9.2%

Explanation:

expected return of the investment = potential return x chance of each return happening

Expected return of the investment:

  • 20% chance of occurring x 30% potential return = 0.2 x 30% = 6%
  • 50% chance of occurring x 10% potential return = 0.5 x 10% = 5%
  • 30% chance of occurring x -6% potential return = 0.3 x -6% = -1.8%
  • total expected return = 9.2%

Suppose that Italy and Germany both produce rye and cheese. Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 5 bushels
Julli [10]

Answer:

Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese.

Germany has a comparative advantage in the production of rye.

5 bushels of rye

1/10 pound of cheese

6 bushels of rye per pound of cheese

7 bushels of rye per pound of cheese

Explanation:

Italy: 1 pound of cheese = 5 bushels of rye

Germany: 1 pound of cheese = 10 bushels of rye

Therefore, the opportunity cost of producing one pound of cheese in Italy is lower than the cost of producing one pound of cheese in Germany, which means that Italy has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese. The opposite can be said about rye since it costs the Germans only half a pound of cheese to produce 5 bushels of rye, while it costs the Italians a whole pound. Therefore, Germany has a comparative advantage in the production of rye.

This means that Italy can gain from specialization if it gains more than 5 bushels of rye for each pound of cheese.

As for Germany, can gain from specialization if it gains more than 1/10 pound of cheese for each bushel of rye.

Therefore, from the alternatives presented, the following would represent a gain from trade for both countries:

6 bushels of rye per pound of cheese

7 bushels of rye per pound of cheese

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets and equity,
pychu [463]

The correct answer is "ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period."

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets, and equity, but also the next period's statements because ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period.

That is why the manager has to be strict regarding the inventory of a company. Inventory has a cost that can be translated into money. So accountants have to be perfect regarding the inventory. So yes, ann error in keeping the inventory affects the company in that the ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period. An internal audit can reveal the mistakes in accurately keeping the inventory. So it is better to put extra attention in the process so nothing wrong would be revealed after the audit.
