Answer:
c. $1,900
Explanation:
As for the information provided, we have:
Retained Earnings opening balance = $2,500
Current year loss = $200
Balance of retained earnings after this = $2,500 - $200 = $2,300
Now, dividends are provided which shall be paid from retained earnings only.
Cash dividends are the one paid in cash.

Thus, both are deductible from retained earnings.
Therefore, closing balance of retained earnings = $2,300 - $200 - $200 = $1,900.
Answer: $3,875 Favorable
Explanation: We can compute direct labor efficiency variance by using following formula :-
Direct labor efficiency variance = standard rate ( actual hours - standard hours)
where,
standard hours = 5,500units * 0.5 hour = 2750 hours
actual hours = 3,000 hours
standard rate = $15.5
putting the values into equation we get :-
Direct labor efficiency variance = $15.5 ( 3,000 - 2750)
= $3,875 Favorable
