The question provides us with the following scenario: "Neil and Zack are working on a project that requires both research and presentation. Neil is better at research, so he gives the presentation to Zack. " A comparative advantage is when an agent is better at something or can produce something at a lower cost. Here, Neil can do research better, so the answer is: A.) Neil doing the research
Answer:
1 crop rotation maintains soil fertility because crops use up different nutrients
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Calculate the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs.
This will be calculated as:
= Standard Hours - Actual Hours) × Standard rate
= (15000/225 × 5.25 - 15000/250 × 5) × 38
= (350 - 300) × 38
= 50 × 38
= 1900 Favourable
2) Calculate the rate variance for variable overhead setup costs.
This will be:
= Standard rate- Actual rate) × Actual Hour
= (38-40) × (15000/250 × 5)
= -2 × 300
= -600 Unfavourable
3) Calculate the flexible-budget spending variance for variable overhead setup costs.
This will be the difference between the standard cost and the actual cost. This will be:
= (15000/225×5.25 ×38) - (15000/250×5 ×40)
= 13300 - 12000
= 1300 Favourable
4) Calculate the spending variance for fixed setup overhead costs.
what formular did you use.
This will be:
= Standard Cost - Actual Cost
= 9975-12000
= -2025 Unfavorable
Answer:
60 percent
Explanation:
Contribution margin refers to the revenue a firm derives after deducting the variable cost it has incurred.
Contribution margin = Sales - Variable costs
Contribution margin or contribution to sales ratio represents the percentage of contribution a firm earns from the sale of it's output.
It is represented mathematically as,
= 
Also, contribution margin ratio = 100 - variable cost ratio percentage.
Hence, contribution margin for three departments would be:
A = 100 - 30% = 70%
B = 100 - 40% = 60%
C = 100- 50% = 50%
This represents if sales revenue is 100, contribution margin earned is 70, 60 and 50 under three cases.
Since sales revenue in all three departments is the same, let us assume the sales revenue of a department as y.
Thus, weighted average contribution margin would be, 60 percent
