Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

The 500-acre area is scarce because it has alternative uses: preservation in its natural state or a site for homes. A choice must be made between these uses. The opportunity cost of preserving the land in its natural state is the forgone value of the land as a housing development. The opportunity cost of using the land as a housing development is the forgone value of preserving the land.

<u>To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (5.9 - 5.65)*26,600

Direct material price variance= $6,650 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (7,300*3.6 - 26,600)*5.9

Direct material quantity variance= $1,888 unfavorable

Viktor [21]

Answer:

His overtime wage = $18.75

Total wages for one day = $118.75

Explanation:

Given,

He worked from - 9:00 am (Internationally - 9:00)

He stopped at - 7:00 pm (Internationally - 19:00)

Therefore, he worked for = (19:00 - 9:00) = 10 hours

Again,

He had unpaid 45 minute lunch break

He had unpaid 15 minute break

Total unpaid time = (45 + 15) minutes = 1 hour.

Therefore, he will be paid for = 9 hours

Again,

His normal wage = $12.50 per hour

<em>His overtime wage = 1.5 times of his normal salary = $12.50*1.5 = $18.75</em>

Since he worked more than 8 hours, he worked 1 overtime hour. Therefore,

(8 hours x $12.50) + (1 hour x $18.75) = $118.75

David is buying a new car for $21,349.00. He plans to make a down payment of $3,000.00. If he's to
marshall27 [118]

Answer: (D) 5.90%

Explanation: David is going to buy a new car at $21,349.

The down payment is $3,000.

Loan amount (Present value) = $21,349 - $3,000

Loan amount (Present Value) = $18,349

Installment amount (pmt) = $352

As the payment is made monthly (12 months in a year),

Number of payments = 5 * 12

Number of payments = 60

Using the rate option in excel,

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv,type)

Insert the variables into the option, we get

=rate(60,352,-18349)

By inserting the above formula in excel we get,

Rate = 0.47%

Rate of 0.47% is monthly, to get APR

APR = (1+monthly rate)^12 - 1

APR = (1+0.0047)^12 - 1

APR = (1.0047)^12 -1

APR = 1.0586 - 1

APR = 0.0586

APR = 5.86% or 5.90%

Therefore the correct option is 5.90%.
