o-na [289]

Answer:

$406,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the actual total direct labor cost for the current period

Using this formula

Actual direct labor cost=Standard direct labor cost + unfavorable rate variance - favorable efficiency variance

Let plug in the formula

Actual direct labor cost=$400,000 + $10,000 - $4,000

Actual direct labor cost= $406,000

Therefore the actual total direct labor cost for the current period is $406,000

What could be two reasons why the data might not support the hypothesis?
Degger [83]
Below are the <span> two reasons why the data might not support the hypothesis:
</span><span>
1) The hypothesis was wrong 
2) The data is wrong

A hypothesis is a proposed thought that may clarify a perception or marvels. It is confirmed by testing it. In the event that the information bolsters the theory, at that point, we view the speculation as checked and genuine. Assuming, be that as it may, the information does not bolster the speculation or discredits it, at that point the theory is in a bad position, and we need to concoct an alternate speculation to clarify the perceptions.

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}

In a perfectly competitive industry, influence over price is exerted by
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

(C) the forces of supply and demand

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive industry, no single buyer nor seller will be able to influence prices thus marking the forces of demand and supply (the invisible hand) the determinant of pricing. Each buyer or seller will only account for a minute portion of total demand and supply thus making their influence of market price insignificant.

Options (A), (B) and (D) are incorrect as the largest firms, individual sellers and individual buyers do not influence pricing over price in a perfectly competitive market.

Assume that a country with an open economy has a fixed exchange-rate system and that its currency is currently overvalued in the
olasank [31]

Answer: b. The quantity of the country's currency supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.

Explanation:

A country operating a fixed-exchange rate system would be actively trading its currency to ensure that it remains at a certain rate. If the currency is overvalued, it means that the currency is actually weak and is being propped up by the company's actions in the forex market.

A reason for the weakness would be that the supply is higher than the demand of the currency which means that, as per the rules of supply and demand, the currency is trading at a lower price, i,e., it is weak.
