Incorrect/Incomplete question: Complete question read;

Which of the following statements correctly describes management compensation options?

A) Managers do not receive fixed salaries; instead their compensation is based on bonuses and incentives.

B) Perks (perquisites) were eliminated as part of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

C) Bonuses are typically awarded for meeting or achieving specific goals.

D) Stock options and awards are part of fixed salary compensation.

Answer:

<u>C) Bonuses are typically awarded for meeting or achieving specific goals.</u>

Explanation:

All the options above with the exception of option C rightly describes management compensation plans. <em>Remember, </em> the term compensation includes<em> both cash and non-cash payments </em>an employee may receive for performing their duties well.

Hence, managers may award certain bonuses (eg 5% salary bonuses, etc)  to their employees for working diligently to meet specific goals (like meeting a sales target, new customer acquisition targets, etc).

Answer:

a. $13

b. $20,625 Unfavorable

Explanation:

a. Computation of overhead volume variance is shown below:-

Variable overhead rate = Variable overhead cost ÷ Expected standard hours

= $275,000 ÷ 25,000

= 11 direct labor hour

Fixed overhead rate = Productive capacity ÷ Expected standard hours

= $50,000 ÷ 25,000

= $2 direct labor hour

Total overheard rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed overhead rate

= $11 + $2

= $13

b. The computation of overhead controllable variance is shown below:-

Variable overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours

= $11 × 21,875

= $240,625

Fixed overhead cost = Overhead rate × Standard hours

= $2 × 21,875

= $43,750

Total overhead cost = $13 × 21,875

= $284,375

Actual result = $305,000

Variance = Actual result - overhead cost applied

= $305,000 - $284,375

= $20,625 Unfavorable

Working note:-

Standard direct labor hours = Actual units ÷ Standard hours

= 35,000 × 1.6

= $21,875

Standard units per hour = (Standard capacity × Expected production) ÷ Standard hours

= (50,000 units × 80%) ÷ 25,000 hours

= 1.6 units per hour

vlada-n [284]

Unemployment insurance makes workers less likely to negotiate for job security when searching for a job and more likely to have a long job search.

Explanation:

Unemployment insurance is a compensation protection where people lost their jobs and follow all eligibility criteria without blame.

Unemployment insurance Workers who are self-employed and willingly fired do not have a career security policy and have to use discretionary funds to cover cases where there is no work available. State governments pay a jobless insurance

Unemployment insurance supports unemployed workers actively seeking work with cash scholarships. The Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) and state employment programs offer benefits for qualifying unemployed workers. There was a misunderstanding. Most employers pay FUTA tax on federal and state unemployment.
