Answer:

A. $234,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

Calculation to determine Armstrong's direct material price variance

Using this formula

Direct material price variance=[(Standard cost-Actual cost)*Actual quantity]

Let plug in the formula

Direct material price variance=[($11-$24)*18,000)

Direct material price variance=$13*18,000

Direct material price variance=$234,000 Unfavorable

Therefore Armstrong's direct material price variance is $234,000 Unfavorable

Romano Corporation has three operating divisions and requires a 12% return on all investments. Selected information is presented
REY [17]

Answer:

<u>DIVISION X</u>

Revenues = $1006000

Operating income = $105600

Operating assets = $419800

Margin = (Income*100/Revenue) = $105600*100/$1006000 = 10.50%

Turnover = (Turnover/Assets) = $1006000/$419800 = 2.4 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = 105600*100/419800 = 25.15%

Residual Income = (105600-419800*12%) = $55224

<u>DIVISION Y</u>

Revenues = $298200*1 = $298200

Operating income = $298200*14% = $41748

Operating assets = $298200

Margin = 14%

Turnover = 1 times

ROI = (income*100/assets) = $41748*100/$298200 = 14%

Residual Income = (41748-298200*12%) = $5964

<u>DIVISION Z</u>

Revenues = $635083.33 * 3 = $1905250

Operating income = $104900

Operating assets = (104900-28690)*100/12 = $635083.33

Margin =  (Income*100/Revenue) = $104900*100/$1905250 = 5.51%

Turnover = 3 times

ROI = (income*100/assets = 5.51% * 3 = 16.53%

Residual Income = $28690

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

equation will be 2x+5

Explanation:

We have given the cost of shipping box = $5

Flat packing fee = $5

As given, the cost of shipping a box is based on its weight in pounds so it is variable

And a flat rate of $5 for packing. This means $5 is common for each parcel that will be sent. Only the weight will vary.

So the equation will be 2x+5
