Question #5

a manufacturing company has a beginning finished goods inventory of 15,100, raw material purchases of 18,500, cost of goods manu

galben [10]

Answer:

$30,300

Explanation:

cost of goods sold = opening inventory + cost of goods manufactured - closing inventory

= $15,100 + $33,500 - $18,300

= $30,300

The cost of goods sold for this company is $30,300

If married and unmarried women respond similarly to a sale on perfume, these hypothetical segments fail the ________ criterion f

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: Differentiable criterion

Explanation: In simple words, differentiable criterion refers to the phenomenon of market segments in which the producing entity differentiates its product on the basis of different customer base. The base can be set on the criteria of any factor like gender , age group or religion etc.

Under this criterion the producing entity produces the product by taking special considerations to the preferences of that particular customer group. In the given case two separate groups are responding similarly to a single product, hence, it fails differentiable criteria.

Which of the statements below indicates that a company earned a net income for the period?

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": The sum of the credits exceeds the sum of the debits in the Income Statement columns on the work sheet.

Explanation:

Net Income, bottom line, or total earnings or profits is a measure of how profitable the company is over a period of time. To find net income, we should take a look at the company's total revenue to subtract any expenses associated with the company's doing business. After deducting taxes from that amount we will have the company's net income.

In the case in the income statement credits exceed debits, the net income of a company is likely to be positive.

Consider the following scenario to answer the following questions: Kukla makes tables, with an opportunity cost of 3 rugs per ev

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

In this question, we are told to state what the reaction of Koka and Zola will be;

Kukla and Zola both like the proposal. As according to the given opportunity cost for Kukla (3 rugs per every 4 tables) she can get 1.5 rugs for 2 tables .But with the offer made now she can get 2 rugs for giving 2 tables.

Given the opportunity cost for Zola ( 2 tables per every 3 rugs ) she must give 3 rugs for getting 2 tables. But with the offer made she can now get 2 tables for giving away only 2 rugs .

So both Kukla and Zola are happy with the offer.

Complete table :

Standard Standard Standard

Quantity Price(or rate) Cost

Direct Materials 2.60 ounces $20.00 per ounce $ 52.00

Direct labor 0.60 hours $16.00 per hours 9.60

Variable manuf 0.60 hours $4.50 per hour 2.70

-acturing Overhead

Total standard cost per unit $64.30

Required:

1) For direct materials:

a) compute the price and quantity variances

b) The materials were purchased from a new supplier who is anxious to enter into a long - term purchase contract, would you recommend that the company sign the contract?

2) For direct labor:

a) Compute the rate and efficiency variances

b) In the past 23 technicians employed in the production of Fludex consists of 4 senior technicians and 19 assistants. During November, the company experimented with fewer senior technicians and more assistants to reduce labor costs, would you recommend that the new labor mix be continued?

3) compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances

Answer:

Check below for answer

Explanation:

1a) Standard quantity of material for actual production(SQ) = 3600*2.60 = 9360 ounce

Actual quantity of material purchased = 13000 ounce

Actual quantity of material used(AQ) = 13000 - 3300 = 9700 ounce

Standard price of material(SP) = $20 per ounce

Actual price of material(AP) = $244,400 / 13000 = $18.80

Material price variance = (SP - AP) * AQ purchased = ($20 - $18.80) * 13000 = $15,600 F

Material quantity variance = (AQ - SQ) * SP = (9700 - 9360) * $20 = $6800 U

2a) Standard hours of direct labor = 3600*0.6 = 2160 hours

Standard rate of direct labor(SR) = $16 per hour

Actual hours of direct labor(AH) = 20*150 = 3000 hours

Actual rate of direct labor(AR) = $14 per hour

Direct labor rate variance = (SR - AR) * AH = ($16 - $14) * 3000 = $7,000 F

Direct labor efficiency variance = (AH - SH) * SR = (3000 - 2160) * $16 = $13,440U

2b) If more assistants rather senior technicians are employed, favorable direct labor rate variance will improve but efficiency variance will be unfavorable. Since unfavorable efficiency variance is higher than favorable rate variance, the new labor mix should not be continued.

3) Standard hours of direct labor = 2160 hours

Standard rate of variable overhead= $4.50 per hour

Actual hours of direct labor = 3000

Actual rate of variable overhead = $6500 / 3000 = $2.17 per hour

Variable overhead rate variance = (SR - AR) * AH = ($4.50 - $2.17) * 3000 = 6990 F

Variable overhead efficiency variance = (SH - AH) * SR = (2160 - 3000) * $4.50 = $186.67 U
