Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given the above information,

Direct material price variance is computed as;

= (Actual price - Standard price) × Actual quantity

Actual price = $436,800/208,000

Standard price = $436,800/182,000

Actual quantity = 208,000

Direct material price variance

=[ ($436,800 / 208,000) - ($436,800 / 182,000 ] × 208,000

= ($2.1 - $2.4) × 208,000

= $62,400 unfavourable

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Actual Operating costs         $231,250  

Planned Operating Costs  budgeted = $ 235058

Planned Operating Costs at actual level   = $ 232430

Explanation:

The Planned costs are the costs estimated at the planned level of activity.

The actual costs are costs that actually occur.

But flexible costs are those which are planned ( determined) at actual level of activity.

Canniff Air

                                       Actual                 Planned

Operating costs         $231,250              

The cost formula for plane operating costs is $56,960 per month plus $2,634 per flight plus $6 per passenger.

Planned Operating Costs= $56,960+ 2634 *67 flights + 6*270 passengers

                                        = $ 56960 + 176478+ 1620

                                         = $ 235058

Actual Operating Costs = $56,960+ 2634 *66 flights + 6*271 passengers

                                         = $ 56960 + 173844+ 1626

                                         = $ 232430

We put the values in the given formula to obtains these costs both planned and actual.

Assume US GAAP to answer this question. In 2017, $2 million in wages were earned and no cash wages were paid. In 2018, $8 millio
kari74 [83]

Answer: a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018

Explanation:

In 2018, $9 million was used to settle the wage debt of 2017 and the remainder was used to settle the wages in 2018.

The money remaining in cash after the wage settlement was:

= 9,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 8,000,000

= -$1,000,000

This means that $1,000,000 of wages was not settled in 2018 which means that this would have to go to the Wages Payable account to signify that the company owes wages.

This account is a liability account so liabilities in 2018 would increase by $1,000,000.
