Answer:
d. independent samples t-test for means.
Explanation:
The technique independent sample t-test for means is an statistical tool used for calculating a difference between two mean values calculated.
As in the given instance there are two types of sample population which represents different samples.
Thus, they shall be compared effectively with this tool so that the more favorable option shall be chosen properly.
The independent t-test sample mean is helpful in this instance.
Answer: b. Sales Returns, Wages, Machinery, Discount Allowed
Explanation:
Sales returns reduce the sales made. Sales are put on the credit side so transactions that will reduce sales such as sales returns would have to go on the debit side.
Wages are an expense and expenses are debited to show they are increasing so they have a debit balance.
Machinery is an asset and assets have debit balances.
Discount allowed reduces the sales balance and as mentioned above, transactions that reduce sales go on the debit side so this has a debit balance as well.
Note:
I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.
The Complete Question is as under:
Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?
A. $766
B. $29818
C. $3137
D. $3211
Answer:
Option D. $3,137
Explanation:
The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.
The amount saved last year would be:
Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137
Hence the option C is correct here.
Answer:
the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is $4,810 favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is shown below;
= ((15,700 ÷ 265) × 4.25) × $45 - ((15,700 ÷ 325) × 3) × $45
= $11,330.6604 - $6,521.5384
= $4,809.12 favorable
= $4,810 favorable
hence, the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs is $4,810 favorable
