Standahl Air uses two measures of activity, flights and passengers, in the cost formulas in its budgets and performance reports.

The cost formula for plane operating costs is $40,190 per month plus $2709 per flight plus $10 per passenger. The company expected its activity in August to be 88 flights and 300 passengers, but the actual activity was 91 flights and 303 passengers. The actual cost for plane operating costs in August was $258,690. The plane operating costs in the planning budget for August would be closest to:

Answer:

$281,612

Explanation:

Plane Operating Cost = Fixed cost + (Variable cost per unit1 × q1) + (Variable cost per unit 2 × q2)

Plane Operating Cost = $40,190 + ($2709*88) + ($10 * 303)

Plane Operating Cost = $40,190 + $238,392 + $3,030

Plane Operating Cost = $281,612

So, the plane operating costs in the planning budget for August would be $281,612

How to plan for a turbulent environment surrounding the current pandemic​
kompoz [17]

Explanation:

The long-running debate between the ‘rational design’ and ‘emergent process’ schools of strategy formation has involved caricatures of firms' strategic planning processes, but little empirical evidence of whether and how companies plan. Despite the presumption that environmental turbulence renders conventional strategic planning all but impossible, the evidence from the corporate sector suggests that reports of the demise of strategic planning are greatly exaggerated. The goal of this paper is to fill this empirical gap by describing the characteristics of the strategic planning systems of multinational, multibusiness companies faced with volatile, unpredictable business environments. In-depth case studies of the planning systems of eight of the world's largest oil companies identified fundamental changes in the nature and role of strategic planning since the end of the 1970s. The findings point to a possible reconciliation of ‘design’ and ‘process’ approaches to strategy formulation. The study pointed to a process of planned emergence in which strategic planning systems provided a mechanism for coordinating decentralized strategy formulation within a structure of demanding performance targets and clear corporate guidelines. The study shows that these planning systems fostered adaptation and responsiveness, but showed limited innovation and analytical sophistication

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Earnings Before Tax (EBT) =  $16,000,000

Interest expense = $12,600,000

Explanation:

Earnings Before Tax (EBT) =  Net Income  / (1 - Tax Rate)

Earnings Before Tax (EBT) =  $12,000,000 / ( 1 - 0.25)

Earnings Before Tax (EBT) =  $12,000,000 / 0.75

Earnings Before Tax (EBT) =  $16,000,000

Interest expense =  Earnings Before Interest and taxes (EBIT) - Earnings Before taxes (EBT)

Interest expense = $28,600,000 - $16,000,000

Interest expense = $12,600,000

The Shapely Company uses the high-low method to determine its cost equation. The following information was gathered for the past
Naddik [55]

Answer:

$633,000.

Explanation:

We use the High-low method to get the cost formula:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}High&14,250&710,000\\Low&9,250&570,000\\Diference&5,000&140,000\\\end{array}\right]

This means 5,000 machine hours generate 140,000 labor cost

We divide and get the variable cost generate per machine hour:

Cost 140000

machine hours 5000

140,000/5,000 = 28

variable cost 28

Next, we use this to calculate the fixed cost:

total cost = variable cost + fixed cost

fixed cost = total cost - 28 X DL

<u>High:</u>

Total Cost 710,000

Variable 399,000 (14,250 x 28)

Fixed Cost 311,000

<u>Low:</u>

Total Cost 570,000

Variable 259,000 (9,250 x 28)

Fixed Cost 311,000

Now with the cost formula we solve for 11,500 machine hours

cost = 311,000 + 28 X Machine Hours

cost = 311,000 + 28 x 11,500

cost = 633,000
