Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1.
Direct Material Price Variance = Actual material cost - Actual Quantity × Standard Price
For Silver
= $13848 - 577 × 23
= $577 (U)
For Crystal
= $2926 - 7700 × 0.40
= $154 (F)
Direct Material Quantity Variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) × Standard Price
For Silver
= (577 - 1530 × 0.40) × 23
= $805 (F)
For Crystal
= (7700 - 1530 × 5) × 0.40
= $20 (U)
2.
Direct Labor Rate Variance = Actual Cost - Actual Hours × Standard Rate
= $36915 - 3210 × 12
= $1605 (F)
And,
Direct Labor efficiency Variance = (Actual hours - Standard hours) × Standard Rate
= (3210 - 1530 × 2) × 12
= $1800 (U)
Answer: Forecasting is exclusively an objective prediction.
Explanation: In simple words, the process of predicting any future event by analyzing the past data is called the forecasting. The factors that an analyst takes from the past could be both qualitative and quantitative.
The forecasting process is done for a specified period and not for infinity. In other words, it is the study of trends and predicting how these trends could change in the future.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.
