Answer:
Direct labor rate variance= $594 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The standard direct labor cost per hour is $7.20.
During August, Zanny's water ski radio production used 6,600 direct labor-hours at a total direct labor cost of $48,708.
<u>To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 48,078/6,600= $7.29
Direct labor rate variance= (7.20 - 7.29)*6,600
Direct labor rate variance= $594 unfavorable
Answer:
E. Core; flexible
Explanation:
Georgia Crane is allowed to create her own work hours on a limited basis. She must be a work from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. every day which represents CORE time, and we can choose which hours she will work between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. around the required hours, which represents FLEXIBLE time. The total required time is eight hours per day.
Georgia Crane is required to work 8 hours in a day.
The core time is the time which is important for Georgia Crane to be at work every day, that is, from 9am to 11am( 2hours) and 1pm to 3pm(2 hours).
That is a total of 4hours.
She can choose between 8am to 6pm as flexible time.
Recall that she needs a total of 4hours more to complete her time for the day.
So 9am to 11am is fixed, 1pm to 3pm is also fixed.
Her total flexible hours for the day 8am to 9am( 1hour), or 11am to 1pm(2hours), or 3pm to 6pm(3hours).
Total flexible hours is 1+2+3=6hours
She is required to choose 4hours from the total flexible 6hours that is most convenient for her to work.
Answer: 3.39
Explanation: Current ratio can be defined as a liquidity ratio which is used by the accountants the evaluate the ability of the company to pay its short term obligations. It can be computed as follows :-
![current\ ratio=\frac{curret\ assets}{current\ liabilities}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=current%5C%20ratio%3D%5Cfrac%7Bcurret%5C%20assets%7D%7Bcurrent%5C%20liabilities%7D)
where,
current assets = $38,500 + $100,000 + $90,500 + $126,000 + $13,100 = $368,100
current liabilities = $108,400
now putting the values into equation we get :-
![current\ ratio=\frac{368,100}{108,400}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=current%5C%20ratio%3D%5Cfrac%7B368%2C100%7D%7B108%2C400%7D)
= 3.39
Answer: a reduction in safety stock and/or lead time
Explanation:
Kanban is a visual system that is used for the management of work as the work moves through a process. It should be noted that it is a concept that tells one what to produce, quantity to produce and when to produce it.
A reduction in the number of kanbans (given a constant container size) requires a reduction in safety stock and/or lead time.
