shtirl [24]

Answer:

direct materials price variance = actual quantity x (actual price - standard price)

direct materials price variance = 7,820 x ($5.30 - $15) = 7,820 x (-$9.70) = -$75,854 favorable

direct materials usage variance = standard price x (actual usage - standard usage)

direct materials usage variance = $15 x (7,820 - 9,660) = -$27,600 favorable

direct labor price variance = actual hours x (actual rate - standard rate)

direct labor price variance = 2,460 x ($12.30 - $15) = 2,460 x (-$2.70) = -$6,642 favorable

direct labor usage (efficiency) variance = standard rate x (actual hours - standard hours)

direct labor usage (efficiency) variance = $15 x (2,460 - 3,680) = $15 x (-1,220) = -$18,300 favorable

Kiddy Toy Corporation needs to acquire the use of a machine to be used in its manufacturing process. The machine needed is manuf

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The machine should be leased because it is cheaper when compared to buying the machine.

Explanation:

To determine which option kiddy should choose , we are to calculate the net present value of buying the machine and the present value of payments thay kiddy would make if they lease the equipment.

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:

Cash flow in year 0 = $-161,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 11 = $-6,000

Cash flow in year 12 = $-6,000 + $11,000 = $5,000

I = 11%

NPV = $-196,809.89

Present value of lease payment

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 11 = $-26,000

I = 11%

PV = $-161,369.40

The machine should be leased because it is cheaper when compared to buying the machine.

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

Present value can be calculated using the same steps as above
