The following data relate to direct labor costs for the current period:
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:$2,125 unfavorable

Explanation:

Given

Standard costs     9,000 hours at $5.50

Actual costs        8,500 hours at $5.75

we have two formulas to calculate  for direct labor rate variance is:

1ST ----Direct Labor rate variance = (Actual Rate- Standard Rate ) x Actual hour

=( $5.75 -$5.50) x 8,500 =  $2,125 unfavorable

2ND----Direct Labor Rate Variance=Actual Direct Labor Cost Incurred - Standard Direct Labor Cost Based on Actual Hours

=Actual Hours x Actual Rate -Actual Hours x Standard Rate

= ($5.75 x 8,500 hours)-($5.50 x 8,500 hours)

$48,875 - $46,750 = $2,125 unfavorable

when the  actual rate is higher than the standard rate, the Direct Labor Rate Variance is unfavorable and if the actual rate is lower than standard rate, the variance is favorable.

Answer:

The correct answer is  Generalizability.

Explanation:

The generalizability theory (theory G) allows to measure the reliability of a test by quantifying the importance of each of its sources of variability. The error is redefined, as a condition or facet of measurement, using the generalizability coefficient as a measure to estimate reliability. This approach does not contradict the fundamental approaches of the classical theory of tests, but can be seen as an extension of it.

A company borrowed $40,000 cash from the bank and signed a 6-year note at 7% annual interest. The present value of an annuity fa
Nat2105 [25]

Answer: $8,391.90

Explanation:

So the company borrowed $40,000 from a bank.

They are to pay 7% interest on the note per year for 6 years.

We are to find the annual payments.

7% represents a constant payment schedule per year so we can use an Annuity formula.

Seeing as the Annuity factor has been calculated for us already we don't need to formula though.

The present value of an annuity factor for 6 years at 7% is 4.7665.

Calculating the present value of the annual payment can be done as follows,

= Amount / PVIFA (Present Value Interest Factor for an Annuity)

= 40,000/4.7665

= 8391.90181475

= $8,391.90

The annual payments equal $8,391.90.
