Answer: The total manufacturing cost variance is made up of direct material cost variance, direct labor cost variance and factory overhead cost variance. (Option C).
Explanation:
Some of the goals of manufacturing companies are to increase company’s revenue and profit. To achieve this, a company needs to know how to manage its costs and these may cause variances in manufacturing.
The total manufacturing cost variance is made up of direct material cost variance, direct labor cost variance and factory overhead cost variance. These costs are the differences between the actual cost incurred and the set cost. These variances help managers to know if the company is meeting up to the required standard.
Answer:
The demand for Post Raisin Brand cereal is: ELASTIC
the demand for all types of breakfast cereals is: INELASTIC
Explanation:
To calculate the price elasticity of demand (PED) we can use the following formula:
PED = % change in quantity / % change in price
- If PED > 1, the demand is price elastic
- If PED = 1, the demand is price unitary
- If PED < 1, the demand is price inelastic
*The PED always results in a negative number, e.g. price deceases, quantity increases, but for practical reasons we convert the negative number into a positive (we use absolute values) when we are determining the elasticity.

Answer:
80 utils
Explanation:
Marginal utility (MU) is the extra or additional utility received from consuming an additional unit of a good.
From the question, we have:
MU from consuming the third unit of Z = Total utility from consuming three units of good Z - Total utility from consuming two units of good Z = 400 - 320 = 80 utils
Therefore, the marginal utility received from consuming the third unit of good Z is 80 utils.
