Answer: The actual cost of materials was less than the standard cost

Explanation:

Net materials cost variance = Favorable materials price variance + Favorable materials quantity variance

= 380 + (-120 unfavorable)

= 380 - 120

= $260 favorable

<em>As the materials cost variance is favorable, it means that the actual cost of materials was less than what was budgeted for it or rather its standard cost. </em>

Leokris [45]

Answer: Opportunity cost of returning to college next year is $1,000,000.

Explanation: Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best alternative sacrificed or foregone. When the athlete chooses to join college he is sacrificing his income that could be earned from playing the game. The player has the option of playing for the minor league baseball team for $1,000,000 or for European professional football team for ​$500,000. The person thus has a choice between playing for the minor league baseball team (since it is the highest paying) or going to college. Thus the opportunity cost of going to college will be $1,000,000.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Additional paid in capital in excess of par value is any amount of money received through issuing stocks at a higher value than par:

additional paid in capital = ($47 - $5) x 12,000 stocks = $42 x 1,200 = $504,000

Additional paid in capital does not affect retained earnings, so retained earnings should remain unchanged.

Sue purchased a 3.5 percent, $100,000 U. S. Treasury bond 6 months ago when the bid quote was 124.1850 and the asked quote was 1
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The total dollar return on this investment is $1765

Explanation:

The total dollar return on the investment by Sue is a sum of the interest earned by Sue during this period and the profit due to the increase in bid/ask price of the bond.

Interest earned = [(0.035/2) x $100,000] = $1750;  

The selling price by Sue today will be the bid quote today and for the purchase price on which Sue bought the bond we will take the asked quote on purchase.

bid quote today = 124.2175

asked quote on purchase = 124.2025

Profit earned on selling = (Bid quote today - Asked quote on purchase) * $100,000

= [(124.2175 - 124.2025) x $100,000] = $15

Total return = $1750 + $15 = $1765
