Answer:

C. Responsiveness of quantity demanded to a percentage change in income.

Explanation:

Income elasticity is defined as the responsiveness of the quantity of a good demanded by an individual as his income changes, all other factors being constant.

Mathematically it is calculated as percentage change in quantity demanded divided by percentage change in income.

Income elasticity is used to find out if a good is a necessity or a luxury good.

The demand for goods that are a necessity does not change with a change in income.

However demand for a luxury good increases as income increases and vice versa

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 22,000 units

Actual: 4,220 hrs. at $44.50

Standard: 4,160 hrs. at $46.00

To calculate the direct labor time and rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

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

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (4,160 - 4,220)*46

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $2,760 unfavorable

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

Direct labor rate variance= (46 - 44.5)*4,220

Direct labor rate variance= $6,330 favorable

Total variance= 6,330 - 2,760

Total variance= $3,570 favorable
