Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

a)  

Direct labor rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) × Actual hours  

= ($22.50 - $23) × 8,450 hours

= -$4,225.00 Favorable

Direct labor time variance = (Actual hours - Standard hours) × Standard rate  

= (8,450 hours - 8,400 hours) × $23

= $ 1,150.00 Unfavorable

Total direct labor cost variance is

= Direct labor rate variance + Direct labor time variance  

= $4,225 Favorable + $1,150 Unfavorable

= -$3,075.00 Favorable

b.  In the case when the employees are not much experienced or they are poorly trained so the less experience cause to less performance due to which the actual time needed should be more than the standard one

Which model allows private companies to set up manufacturing units on prison grounds or purchase goods made by inmates in shops
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

private prison enterprise

Explanation:

A public jail is not a profit-generating enterprise. The eventual objective is to house jailed prisoners in an effort to rehabilitate them or remove them from the streets. A private jail, on the other hand, is administered by a business. That corporation’s final purpose is to profit from everything they deal in.

In order to generate money as a private jail, the firm gets into a contract with the government. This contract should indicate the basis for payment to the company. It might be based on the size of the jail, based on a monthly or annual predetermined sum, or in most situations, it is paid depending on the number of convicts that the prison holds.

As of 2019, there are around 116,000 inmates detained in private prisons, which constitutes 8 percent of the overall federal and state prison population.

Many of these jails save the government money, but others actually cost more per prisoner than a public institution would cost.

It takes K’s Boutique an average of 53 days to sell its inventory and an average of 16.8 days to collect its accounts receivable
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The accounts receivable turnover rate is 21.73

Explanation:

The formula for accounts receivable turnover is

365/Average days to collect.

This way we can find how many times a year does the company collect payments for its accounts receivable, so when we divide the total number of days in a year by the average number of days to collect we can calculate how many times we collect payment for accounts receivable.

In the question we are given the average days to collect which is 16.8

We have to put that into a formula

365/16.8=21.73

guapka [62]

Answer: The Japanese companies invest in Brazil in order to cut cost.

Explanation:

Since Brazil is one of the world's lowest-cost producers of ethanol and soybeans. Japanese corporations investing heavily in Brazil to lease large tracts of land to grow soybeans for export to Japan, are doing this in order to minimize their cost.

Growing soyabeans in Brazil is cheaper since there's a lower cost of producing it when compared to the higher cost of producing it in Japan. This in turn, helps the Japanese companies reduce their cost as the cost of factor Input is reduced and also the Japanese companies can make more profit.
