Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Material Price Variance is

= Actual Quantity × (Actual Rate - Standard Rate)

= 6000 × ($18000 ÷ 6000 - $4)

= $6,000 Favorable

b. Material Quantity Variance is

= Standard Rate × (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity)

= $4 × (6000 - 5 × 1000)

= $4,000 (Unfavorable)

c. It is favorable as actual production is more than the normal monthly output

A closed economy has income of $1,500 billion, government spending of $260 billion, taxes of $180 billion, and investment spendi
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

(i) $940 billion

(ii) $380 billion

(iii) -$80 billion

(iv) $300 billion

Explanation:

Income, Y = $1,500 billion

Government spending, G = $260 billion

Taxes, T = $180 billion,

Investment spending, I = $300 billion

As Y = C + G + I

Consumption spending, C = $1,500 - $260 - $300

                                            = $940 billion

Private savings = Y - T - C

                          = $1,500 - $180 - $940

                          = $380 billion

Public saving = T - G

                      = $180 - $260

                      = -$80 billion

National saving = private + public

                          = $380 - $80

                          = $300 billion

The calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, net 30 implies that the firm is entitled to receive a 2 percent discount if it makes payment within 10 days for the goods it bought on term but the seller expects to pay full amount of the amount due in 30 days if it fails to pay within 10 days.

However, since there will be no more discount after the discount period, the cost of trade credit will continue to fall longer the payment is extended. For this question this can be demonstrated using the formula for calculating the cost of trade discount as follows:

Cost of trade discount = {[1 + (discount rate / (1 - discount rate))]^(365/days after discount)} - 1 ................... (1)

We can now applying equation (1) as follows:

<u>For payment in 40 days </u>

Cost of trade credit (payment in 40 days)= {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/40)} - 1 = 0.202436246672765, or 20%

<u>For payment in 30 days </u>

Cost of trade credit (payment in 30 days) = {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/30)} - 1 = 0.278643315029666, or 28%

<u></u>

<u>Conclusion</u>

Since the 20% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 40 days is lower than 28% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 30 days, the <u>correct option is A. True</u>. That is, the calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

2017 depreciation expense= 10,060*3/12=$2,515

2018 depreciation expense=$10,060

Explanation:

The depreciation expense of machine for the whole year shall be calculated as follows:

Depreciation expense=[(89,920-9,440)/8]=$10,060

Since the machine is only used for 3 months in the year ended December 31, 2017, therefore the depreciation expense in 2017 will be calculated as follows

2017 depreciation expense= 10,060*3/12=$2,515

2018 depreciation expense=$10,060
