Coral Music manufactures harmonicas. Coral uses standard costs to judge performance. Recently, a clerk mistakenly threw away so

me of the records, and only partial data for July exist. Coral knows that the total direct labor variance for the month was $390 F and that the standard labor rate was $9 per hour. A recent pay cut caused a favorable labor rate variance of $0.50 per hour. The standard direct labor hours for actual July outputs were 5,200. Compute and evaluate direct labor vacancies.

Answer:

Explanation:

std rate $9.00

actual rate $8.50

standard hours 5,200

Total variance: 390 Favorable

Rate variance:

$(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours = DL \: rate \: variance$

Efficiency

$(standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = DL \: efficiency \: variance$

Total:

rate + efficiency

$(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours + (standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = 390$

We plug our know values and solve:

$(9 - 8.5) \times actual \: hours + (5,200-actual\:hours) \times 9 = 390$

0.5actual hours + 46,800 - 9actual hours = 390

46,800 - 390 = 8.5 actual hours

46,410/8.5 = actual hours = 5,460

now we calculate each variance:

rate: 2,730

$(9-8.5) \times 5,460 = DL \: rate \: variance$

efficiency (2,340)

$(5,200-5,460) \times 9 = DL \: efficiency \: variance$

The Young Woman's Club of Williams has been operating for seventy-five years as an organization that supports women who stay at

likoan [24]

Answer:

A) a liability.

Explanation:

Probably, the strong culture held by the Young Woman's Club of Williams (YWCW) will be perceived to have a very low tolerance for diversity by the newcomers. It will also prevent the organization from growing in number. That doesn't mean that it will lose affiliates, but the total number of affiliates will not grow according to the growth in Williams's total population.

Since its strong culture will prevent the YWCW from growing and adapting to community changes, it should be considered a liability.

Smythe Co. makes furniture. The following data are taken from its production plans for the year. Direct labor costs $ 5,870,000

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$2.80 per chair

$2.25 per table

Explanation:

If cost is assigned at a rate based on direct labor hours, the total disposal cost for chairs and tables is, respectively:

$D_c=\frac{254,000}{16,400+254,000}*\$630,000=\$591,789.94\\D_t=\frac{16,400}{16,400+254,000}*\$630,000=\$38,210.06\\$

The respective disposal cost per unit is:

$C = \frac{\$591,789.94}{211,000}=\$2.80/chair\\ T=\frac{\$38,210.06}{17,000}=\$2.25/ table$

Gabe Industries sells two products, Basic models and Deluxe models. Basic models sell for $ 44 per unit with variable costs of

12345 [234]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Basic models sell for $ 44 per unit with variable costs of $ 25 per unit. Deluxe models sell for $ 52 per unit with variable costs of $ 25 per unit. Total fixed costs for the company are $1,323. Gabe Industries typically sells three Basic models for every Deluxe model.

First, we need to calculate the weighted sales participation:

Basic= 3/4= 0.75

Deluxe= 1/4= 0.25

Now, we need to calculate the weighted average selling price and variable cost:

weighted average selling price= (selling price* weighted sales participation)= (44*0.75 + 52*0.25)= 46

weighted average variable cost= (variable cost* weighted sales participation)= (25*0.75 + 25*0.25)= 25

Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units:

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / (weighted average selling price - weighted average variable expense)

Break-even point= 1,323/ (46 - 25)= 63 units

Piazza, a pedestrian, was injured when struck by a vehicle driven by Delaney, who ran a stop sign. At the time of the accident,

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Piazza should sue DGA Corporation because he (or she?) was struck by a company vehicle and the driver was acting within the scope of his normal employment tasks. Piazza might also sue Delaney along with DGA, since DGA is a small corporation and as a corporation is considered a separate legal entity whose shareholder equity might be really low.

Piazza can sue for compensatory damages including pain and suffering, medical bills and lost wages.
