Answer:

$1,728 U

Explanation:

Budgeted Production = 3500 poles

Actual production = 3800 poles

Standard machine hour/pole= 4.60

Total standard hours for actual production = 3800*4.60 = 17,480 machine hours

Actual machine hours for the month = 17,800 machine hours

Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $5.40 per machine hour

The actual variable manufacturing overhead cost = $96,712

Variable overheard Efficiency variance = (Standard overhead rate* (Actual hours - Standard hours)

= $5.40* (17,800- 17,480)

= $5.40 *320

= $1,728 U

The actual hours is more than standard hours. thus, it is an unfavorable variance.

Suppose that on Valentine's Day, the demand for both roses and greeting cards increases by the same percentage amount. However,
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Based on the information supply of cards is more elastic (price sensitive) than that of roses

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply is defined as the sensitivity of quantity supplied to changes in price.

The formula is given below

Price elasticity of supply= Change in quantity supplied ÷ Change in price

In this scenario the demand for both roses and cards increases, however the price of roses increases more.

This implies that the denominator in the formula is higher in roses resulting in smaller price elasticity of supply.

The elasticity of supply for cards is higher than that of roses, so it is more sensitive to changes in price.

Cards can be stored from year to year so the labour for maintaining a stock of cards is low with resultant low price.

On the other hand roses require care to grow. It requires watering, application of chemicals to treat infestation and so on. So suppliers tend to push the extra cost of growing roses to the buyers

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Minimum selling price is $ 37

Explanation:

Computation of minimum selling price

Direct materials per unit                                       $ 15

Direct labour per unit - existing       $ 19

Additional for modification               <u>$  3</u>        

Direct Labor per unit                                             <u>$ 22</u>

Variable cost per unit                                            $ 37

Since the Company has sufficient idle capacity to produce the additional order, no incremental fixed manufacturing capacity is considered.

The minimum selling price should be one which covers the variable costs ( modified for labor increase)
