Answer:

$288 (F)

Explanation:

In order to calculate activity variance we subtract actual results from the flexible budget. Moreover, the flexible budget is determined by taken into account both fixed and variable expense of the activity. This is shown below:

Flexible Budget of Selling and Administrative Expense = 25,900 + (2.1 x 5,980) = $38,458

Variance = 38,170 - 38,458 = $288 (F)

Because the actual expense is less than the flexible budget, the variance is favorable (F).

Note: Variable flexible budget is calculated by multiplying the variable rate with the actual units produced.

Burger Boy Restaurant Corporation allows its trademark to be used as part of a domain name for BurgerBoyNY, Inc., an unaffiliate
Yuri [45]

Answer:

A License

Explanation:

Burger Boy Restaurant Corporation allows its trademark to be used as part of a domain name for BurgerBoyNY, Inc., an unaffiliated company. Burger Boy NY does not obtain ownership rights in the mark. This is a license. When one firm gives its rights to another firm under this type of contract, the ownership rights always remains with the parent company and licensee can't have ownership rights, they can use only the name and products of that parent company to the customers, but ownership held with the parent company. For example, when KFC and McDonald's gives the right to make and sell their products all over the world, the ownership rights are always reserved with the parent company.

A customer in a coffee shop purchases a blend of two coffees: kenyan, costing $3.50 a pound, and sri lankan, costing $5.60 a pou
Rom4ik [11]
We have to make a system of equations:
x + y = 7;  where x stays for pounds of Kenyan coffee, and y stays for pounds of Sri Lankan coffee. And: 3.50 * x + 5.60 * y = 33.95 ( total cost ).
From the 1st equation: x = 7 - y. We have to substitute it into the 2nd equation:
3.50 * ( 7 - y ) + 5.60 * y = 33.95
24.50 - 3.50 y + 5.60 y = 33.95
5.60 y - 3.50 y = 33.95 - 24.50
2.10 y = 9.45
y = 9.45 : 2.10
y = 4.5 lb;  x = 7 - 4.5 = 2.5 lb.
Answer: 2.5 lb of Kenyan coffee and 4.5 lb of Sri Lankan.

45 - 12 - 25 - 3 = $3 per unit

<h3>Profit per unit for best case:</h3>

45 - 10 - 20 - 3 = 12$ per unit

b. The mean profit per unit is given as $7.05

c. The reason the simulation approach is preferable is due to the fact that it can help to determine the probability of profit as a particular amount, unlike the what-if scenario analysis.

yulyashka [42]

The Healthcare industry is a great example of how the industry has become involved in Washington lobbying, as the number of their lobbies has increased recently.

According to the Public Disclosure Commission (PDC), lobbying is "attempting to influence the approval or rejection of any rule, standard, rate, or another legislative enactment by any state agency under the state Administrative Procedure Act, RCW.

In  Washington, the sector that has spent the most on lobbying over the past 24 years is the pharmaceutical and health goods sector. Insurance, electric utilities, electronics manufacturers, and business groups are further businesses that spend a lot of money on lobbying.

The pharmaceutical and health goods business has outspent all others in lobbying spending $5.17 billion total.

Cash flow from financing in 2018:

$71

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                        2015        2016        2017         2018

Cash                              $ 54           $ 78        $ 102        $ 126

Cash from operations $ 146         $ 144         $ 141        $ 136

Net capital spending   $ 178         $ 173        $ 178         $ 183

Cash from financing    $ 56          $ 53          $ 61

                                        2015        2016        2017         2018

Cash at the beginning    $30          $54           $78        $102

Cash from operations  $ 146        $ 144         $ 141        $ 136

Cash from financing     $ 56          $ 53          $ 61         $  71

Net capital spending  ($ 178)       ($ 173)       ($ 178)      ($ 183)

Cash                              $ 54          $ 78         $ 102       $ 126

Cash from the beginning for 2015 = (Cash at the end plus net capital spending) minus (Cash from operations plus cash from financing)

= /$30 ($54 + $178) - ($146 + $56)

Cash from financing in 2018 = (Cash at the end plus net capital spending) minus (Cash from operations plus cash at the beginning)

= $71 ($126 + $183) - ($136 + $102)
