Sales                       …$651,000                 $600,00             630,000 Fav

V. Cost of goods sold: ​ ​ 512,000              $ 460,000           483,000 Unfav

<u>Income from operations  ​ $ 49,500    $ 48,000            $51,000  Fav</u>

<u></u>

<u>Working</u>

Flexible Calculations = (600,000/20,000)*21,000= $ 630,000

V. Cost of goods sold= ($ 460,000 /20,000)*21,000= 483,000

Direct materials .   =  $200,000 /20,000)*21,000=   210,000

Direct labor =    160,000/20,000)*21,000=    168,000

Variable overhead  =  60,000 /20,000)*21,000=    63,000

Variable Operating Expenses =  40,000 /20,000)*21,000= 42,000

All calculations are carried out in the same way. Dividing the amount in the given budget with the number of units and multiplying it with actual number of units.

Flexible Contribution Margin 147,000 and Actual Contribution Margin 139,000 which shows a Variance  of 8000  which is unfavorable.

earnstyle [38]

Answer: closed shop

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that in the late 1930s management at Atalanta Industries agreed to hire only those workers who were already members of the Electrical Union.

It should be noted that here, Atlanta agreed to a type of arrangement known as closed shop. This occurs when the workers have to belong to a particular union before they'll be employed. This was legal in 1930 but it was later declared illegal by Taft Hartley Act.

Why are us firms moving manufacturing jobs overseas?
inysia [295]

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Aggregate expenditure must have increased by $50 billion

Explanation:

We have given level of GDP is increased by $100 billion

Marginal prosperity MPS = 0.5

So multiplier m=\frac{1}{1-MPS}=\frac{1}{1-0.5}=2

We have to find the aggregate expenditure change

Aggregate expenditure change is given by =\frac{level\ of\ increase\ in\ GDP}{multiplier}=\frac{100}{2}=$50billion  

So aggregate expenditure must have increased by $50 billion
