Answer:
the last part of the question is missing, so I looked for it:
a. Randy received $2,200 of interest this year and no other investment income or expenses. His AGI is $75,000.
b. Randy had no investment income this year, and his AGI is $75,000.
a) Randy can deduct $31,575:
- the mortgage interest is deductible
- the car loan interest is not deductible
- he can deduct $4,725 - $2,200 = $2,525 as investment interest expense
b) Randy can deduct $29,050
- the mortgage interest is deductible
- the car loan interest is not deductible
- since he had no investment revenue, he cannot deduct any investment interest expense
Answer:
- <u>std rate $30.64</u>
- <u>efficiency variance $6,128.00</u>
Explanation:
We will work the rate variance to obtain the standard rate:

actual rate $29.20
actual hours 11,700
difference $1.44
rate variance $16,800.00

<u>std rate $30.64</u>
<u></u>
<u>Now we can solve for the labor efficiency variance:</u>
std hours 11700
actual hours 11500
std rate $30.64
difference 200
<u>efficiency variance $6,128.00</u>
The diference is positive, sothe variance is favorable.
