Answer:

1 a. Materials price and quantity variances.

Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) * Actual Quantity purchased

= ($2.45 - $2) * 15,800

= $0.45 * 15,800

= $7110 (Unfavorable)

Materials Quantity variance = (Actual Quantity used - Standard Quantity allowed) * Standard price

(10600 - 3000 * 3.6) * $2

= (10,600 - 10,800) * $2

= 200 * $2

= 400 (Favorable)

b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - standard rate) * Actual hours

= (6.30 - 6.6) * 2,100

= 0.3 * 2,100

= 630 (Favorable)

Labor Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed) * Standard rate

= (2100 - 3000 * 0.5) * 6.6

= (2,100 - 1,500) * 6.6

= 600 * 6.6

= 3960 (Unfavorable)

c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances

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

= 3000 - (2.10 * 1200)

= 3,000 - 2,520

= 480 Unfavorable

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

= (1200 - 3000 * 0.3) * 2.10

= (1200 - 900) * 2.10

= 300 * 2.10

= 630 (Unfavorable)

2. Variances Amount

Material price variance 7,110 U

Material quantity variance 400 F

Labor rate variance 630 F

Labor efficiency variance 3,960 U

Variable overhead rate variance 480 U

Variable overhead efficiency variance 630 U

Net variance 11,150 U

The net variance of all the variance of the month is 11,150 (Unfavorable)

Match the cost variance component to its definition.

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1. C

2. A

3. B

4. D

Explanation:

Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.

In sales and marketing, pricing of products is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.

In Accounting, costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

The various types of cost variance components and their definition includes the following;

1. Actual price: the amount paid to acquire input.

2. Actual quantity: the input used to manufacture the quantity of output.

3. Standard quantity: the expected input for the quantity of output.

4. Standard price: the expected price.

In a homogeneous-good Cornet model where each of the n firms has a constant marginal cost m and the market demand curve is p = a

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n=1 (monopoly) we have $Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be $Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}$

Explanation:

In the case of a homogeneous-good Cournot model we have that firm i will solve the following profit maximizing problem

$Max_{q_i} \,\, \Pi_i=(a-b(\sum_{i=1}^n q_i)-m)q_i$

from the FPC we have that

$a-b\sum_{i=1}^n q_i -m -b q_i=0$

$q_i=\frac{a-b \sum_{i=2}^n q_i-m}{2b}$

since all firms are homogeneous this means that $q_i=q \forall i$

then $q=\frac{a-b (n-1) q-m}{2b}=\frac{a-m}{(n+1)b}$

the industry output is then

$Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n=1 (monopoly) we have $Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be $Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}$

There are two parties in any lease contract—the lessee and the lessor. To a lessor, a lease analysis involves a capital budgetin

inn [45]

Answer:

a, b

Explanation:

It is important to note that a lessor's goal is to make a profit, thus he would be more concerned about knowing what is the value realized after subtracting the lease payments from his income taxes and any maintenance expenses that must be incurred as per the lease agreement.

In order to be cost efficient, he might as well determine the net cash outlay of the lease agreement.
