Answer:

Increases in direct proportion to the number of hours the lawn equipment is operated.

Explanation:

Variable costs refer to those costs which vary or change with the level of production output. Such costs rise as production level increases and fall with decrease in the production level.

Examples of variable costs would include direct labor cost which varies with the number of hours worked, or sales commission which varies w.r.t the volume of sales effected by a salesperson.

In the given case, the cost incurred on gasoline, which is used as fuel for lawn equipment, would be classified as a variable cost if, such cost increases when lawn equipment is operated for more hours or falls when the same equipment is operated for lesser number of hours.

Thus, such costs should increase in direct proportion to the number of hours the lawn equipment is operared, to be classified as a variable cost.

The company probably uses the multidomestic strategy.

<h3><u>What is a multidomestic strategy?</u></h3>

  • Each large national market where commerce is conducted typically has established production, marketing, and R&D operations.
  • The structure of multinational corporations is described by an alternative use of the phrase.
  • International or multinational businesses advertise comparable products in numerous countries and benefit from economies of scale through shared overhead.

Multinational corporations can achieve more localized management by having separate headquarters in many nations, but at a higher cost by forgoing the economies of scale through cost sharing and centralization.

The normal time for a repetitive task that produced two work units per cycle is 3.0 min. The plan uses a PFD allowance factor of
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

A.- 3.45 min to produce two work units

B.- In a 8-hout shift at standard performance 274 work units are produced

Explanation:

The Standart tiem per piece would be:

StandardTime=NormalTime*(1+PFD)

Given your numbers it will be:

3 * (1 + 0.15)= 3.45

This is the time per cycle to produce 2 work units

Now, in an 8 hours shift there are 480 minutes.  Dividing between the standard time of a cycle we get the standard performance

\frac{480}{3.45} = 137.14

Rounding, we will be getting 137 cycles

Lastly, because each cycle produce 2 work units we are having a total of 274 Units

An issuer has filed a registration statement in the state proposing to offer 500,000 shares in a combined primary and secondary
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

b. 300,000 shares being sold is an issuer transaction and the 200,000 shares being sold is a non-issuer transaction.

Explanation:

A non-issuer transaction is a transaction that does not directly benefit an issuer or it was not directly executed to benefit an issuer.

According to the Uniform State Law, an entity involved in the sales of certificates of interest, leases, mining titles among others is officially exempted from being labelled as an issuer. Hence, the entity (officers of the firm) in the question are non-issuer brokers.

Specifically, when the sales of stock are carried out by someone or an individual who is not a registered stockbroker, that individual officially becomes what is called 'a non-issuer broker-dealer'. The implication is that such a transaction is to be exempted from the registration requirements of the Security Exchange Commission.

In this question, since the issuer newly issued 300,000 shares while the remaining 200,000 in the proposed combination was offered by Officers of the firm - non-issuer broker-dealers. The Law states that it must be separated to show that 300,000 shares are sold in an issuer transaction (Primary) directly involving an official issuer while 200,000 shares are sold in a non-issuer transaction (Secondary).
