Does the film titanic improve the viewer's understanding of the historical events?

On one hand it does, but on the other, it doesn't.
If you look at the movie from a historical perspective, we can see what people might have behaved like in the actual event when Titanic sank. The movie portrays their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors during that horrible night, so if you think about it that way, I guess we can understand the event more. On the other hand though, the movie included a love story which is not really relevant to what actually happened in history, so it doesn't really help the viewer think about history much.

It shows that the ship crashed in 1912, but it's a love story, so no.

They could've both fit on that door.

erastova [34]

Answer: The answer is provided below

Explanation:

a). The revenue here shows that

Wendover's patients were capitated. The is because the actual revenue figures were assumed to be $180, but it

later came to $300 which means that the revenue increased.

The reason is that a capitated patient provides fixed payment a year, while a fee for service client pays per usage. With this explanation, it can be concluded that majority of Wendover's patients are fee for service because the difference between static results and the actual results is very high.

) 1. Revenue variance

= Actual Revenues - Static budget

= $ 300 - $ 425

= - $125

2. Volume variance

= Flexible Revenue - Static Budget

= $ 200 - $ 425

= - $ 225

3. Price Variance

= Actual Revenues - Flexible Revenues

=$300 - $200

= $100

4. Enrollment variance

= Flexible Revenues - Static Budget

= $ 180 - $ 425

= - $ 245

5. Utilization variance

= Flexible Revenue- Flexible Budget

= $ 200 - $ 180

= $ 20

The Shirt Company manufactures shirts in two departments: cutting and sewing. The company allocates manufacturing overhead using

Degger [83]

Answer and Explanation:

1. The computation of predetermined OH allocation rate is shown below:-

Predetermined OH allocation Rate = Estimated overhead cost ÷ Estimated Direct labor hours

= 200,000 ÷ 100,000

= 2

2. The computation of the amount of OH allocated in June is shown below:-

Amount of OH allocated in June = Actual Direct labor hours × Overhead allocation Rate

= 15,500 × 2

= 3,100

3. The computation of predetermined OH allocation rates for each department is shown below:-

Overhead allocation Rate Estimated overhead costs ÷ Estimated Direct labor hour

For Cutting Dept = 259,600 ÷ 118,000

= 2.2

For Sewing Dept = 513,000 ÷ 190,000

= 2.7

4. The computation of the total amount of OH allocated in June is shown below:-

Amount of overhead allocated in June

= Machine hours × Predetermined OH allocation rate

For Cutting Dept = 13,000 × 2.2

= 28,600

For Sewing Dept = 7,000 × 2.7

= 18,900

Answer:

It is more convenient to buy the product from an outsource supplier.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

To make a batch of 800 units, it is estimated that 120 direct labor hours are required for $12 per hour. Direct material costs are estimated at $1,800 per batch. The overhead costs are calculated based on an overhead rate of $7.50 per direct labor hour. The item can be readily purchased from a local vendor for $5 per unit.

We need to determine whether it is more convenient to make in house or outsource.

Make in house:

Total variable cost= 120*12 + 1,800 + 120*7.5= $4,140

Unitary variable cost= 4,140/800= $5.18

Buy= 5

It is more convenient to buy the product from an outsource supplier.
