Answer:

Of the following factors, the manufacturer's production volume variance is most likely to have been caused by:

D. Temporary employment of workers with lower skill levels than originally anticipated.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated practical capacity = 90,000 machine hours

Machine hours per unit = 2

Estimated production units based on capacity = 45,000 (90,000/2)

                                                   Budgeted          Actual

Variable overhead =                 $200,000      $240,000

Actual fixed overhead =           $450,000      $442,000

Machine hours                             90,000           88,000

Units produced                            45,000           42,000

Estimated units to be produced based on standard machine hour

= 44,000 units (88,000/2)

Variance between standard units to be produced and actual = 2,000 (44,000 - 42,000) Unfavorable

Answer:

It increases the opportunity cost because you are foregoing more money for college.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the benefit profit, or value of something that is missed or given up when an individual chooses one alternative over another.  

The 10% rise in salary offered by the branch manager increases the opportunity cost of going to college. This is because the higher cost (money) you could have earned by not going to college is foregone.
