Answer:
1. $3.20 x 2.20 = $7.04
2. It will be favorable.
3. It will be unfavorable.
4. Direct material price variance = $22
Direct material quantity variance = 0.48
Explanation:
1. Standard direct cost per unit=cost of direct materials price x direct material standard quantity per unit.
2. It will be favorable because they expected or had budgeted to pay $3.60 per foot for the material but the actual cost became $3.20. So they pay $0.40 less than they had expected to pay.
3. It will be unfavorable because they had planed or budgeted for each unit to use 2.05 feet of leather but they ended up needing 2.20 feet of leather per collar so that means they under budgeted by 0.15 feet.
4. Direct material price variance =( $3.60 x 55) less ($3.20x55)=$22
The total amount that was budgeted or expected to be paid is subtracted from the total actual price that was paid.
Direct material quantity variance = (2.05x$3.20) less (2.20x$3.20)= -0.48
The total direct material quantity that is used is subtracted from the quantity that was expected to be used.
Answer:
$11 billion annually.
Explanation:
Firms carried out assessments based on their daily activities as well as employee assessment.
Employees in firms are assessed based on their productivity level, rate at which they are absent from work as well as their turnover rate in the firm.
Low productivity can be defined as a decrease in the production capacity of a firm due to the inefficiency of workers.
Absenteeism can be defined as when a person is not present at work. This may be due to genuine or deliberate reasons.
Employee turnover can be defined as the number of employees who leave a firm and are replaced with new employees.
Low productivity, consistent absenteeism and employee turnover rates are said to cause firms to lose a lot of money due to:
a. Payment of salary for absent workers
b. Having to find replacement for absent staffs.
c. Low productivity due to lack of or absent staffs.
It is estimated that firms lose $11 billion annually in productivity, absenteeism, and employee turnover due to caring for aging parents.
Answer:
the depreciation expense for 2022 is $3,000
Explanation:
Straight line method of depreciation charges a fixed amount of depreciation over the period of use of an asset.
Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Residual Value) / Number of useful life
= ($81000 - $21000) / 5
= $12,000
The Annual depreciation charge for this machine will be $12,000 for each of the years that it is used in the business.
However since it was paced in use during the year that is 1 October, we have to apportion the Annual charge withe number of months that its has been in use during 2022.
It has been used for 3 months thus depreciation charge is :
Depreciation = 3/ 12 × $12,000
= $3,000
