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.

A coupon bond that pays interest of 4% annually has a par value of $1,000, matures in 5 years, and is selling today at $785. The
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Actual Yiel to maturity is 9.3%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity.

Face value = F = $1,000

Coupon payment = $1,000 x 4% = $40

Selling price = P = $785

Number of payment = n = 5 years

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + ( $1,000 - $785 ) / 5 ] / [ ( 1,000 + $785 ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + $43 ] / $892.5  = $83 /$892.5 = 0.0645 = 0.093%

Is it possible to decrease inflation without causing a recession and its concomitant increase in unemployment? The orthodox answ
NeTakaya

Answer:

The answer is: E) It would not necessarily be considered high elsewhere

Explanation:

Usually the inflation rate in the US and Europe is around 1-3%. In the early 1980's the US inflation rate was above 10% so it was considered huge. But if you consider it against inflation rates in other countries, like Argentina for example, which currently has an annual inflation rate of over 60% then it wasn't that big. During the 1980's many countries suffered from hyperinflation, with monthly inflation rates of over 50%.

So the high inflation rate in the US and Europe wasn't necessarily high for other countries.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The correct words for the blank spaces are: Government purchases; Government Expenditures.

Government purchases refer to the expenses the central government incurs in federal, state, and local agencies. These purchases represent part of the <em>Gross Domestic Product</em> (GDP) of the country considering transfer payments are not including in these expenditures.

When the transfer payments are added to the government purchases the result represents the Government Expenditures. It is one of the factors of the GDP along with private investments, individuals' consumption, and net exports (exports minus imports).
