Estimated production units in March = 9,500
Standard material and labor costs:
Particulars Standard Standard Standard
quantity price per unit
Direct materials 2.5 pounds $3 per pound $7.50
Direct labor 0.6 hours $10 per hour $6.00
Actual production units in March = 9,000
Actual materials and labor costs:
Actual results:
Purchase of materials, 24,000 pounds = $66,000
Production usage = 24,000 pounds
Total labor hours = 5,000
Total wage cost = $55,000
Particulars Actual Actual Actual Cost
quantity price per unit
Direct materials 2.67 pounds $2.79 per pound $7.45
Direct labor 0.555 hours $11 per hour $6.11
Material price variance = (Standard price - Actual price) * Actual quantity
= ($7.50 - $7.45) * 9,000
= $450 F
Material quantity variance = (Standard Qty - Actual Qty) * Standard Price
= (23,750 - 24,000) * $3
= $750 U
Labor price variance = (Standard price - Actual price) * Actual hours
= ($6.00 - $6.11) * 5,000
= $550 U
Labor quantity variance = (Standard Qty - Actual Qty) * Standard Price
= (5,700 - 5,000) * $10
= 700 * $10
= $7,000 F

Your uncle has just purchased a wheat farm and wants your advice on how he should price his product. Explain to your uncle the characteristics of the market structure under which his farm falls and how this will help him to determine the price and quantity of the wheat he will produce.
Answer:
the wheat firm is perfectly competitive
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
he is a price taker and the price of his wheat which would be equal to equilibrium price would be determined by market forces
if he sells at the market price, he would sell all his wheat
Explanation:
If the uncle sells above equilibrium price, he would not sell any wheat
he cannot sell below equilibrium price because he would make losses

The impact of taxes on different groups in society varies. Some taxes create a larger burden for poorer people while others create a larger burden for wealthier people. Arrange the tax classifications according to the level of burden placed on poorer people.
Answer:
Progressive places the least burden on poor people
Proportional places the second highest burden
regressive places the most burden
Explanation:
Regressive tax system is a tax system where those that earn lower income pay more tax and those that earn higher income pay less tax.
A proportionate tax taxes everyone the same regardless of the amount earned.
A progressive tax is a tax structure where those who earn higher income are taxed more and those that earn less pay less amount of tax. A progressive tax ensures vertical equity.
An investment offers $5,700 per year, with the first payment occurring one year from now. The required return is 5 percent. a. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 10 years
Answer:
The correct answer is "$44,013.89".
Explanation:
Given:
Investment per year,
= $5,700
Required return,
= 5%
As we know,
⇒ [tex]Present \ value=Investment \ per \ year\times Annuity \ factor[/tex]
Or,
⇒ [tex]Annuity \ factor=\frac{1-[\frac{1}{(1+k)}]^n }{k}[/tex]
then,
The present value of 10 annual payment will be:
= [tex]5700\times \frac{1-[\frac{1}{(1+.05)}]^{10} }{.05}[/tex]
= [tex]44013.89[/tex] ($)

Bad Company, Inc., has a major outlay of $2.05 million that is needed to renovate the company's manufacturing facility. Because the company's management is conservative, it won't undertake the renovation until it has the cash necessary to fund the renovation. The company plans to deposit $155,000 each quarter into an account that will earn 2.05 percent per quarter. How many years will it be until the company has the money saved for the renovation
Answer:
Bad Company
The number of years that it will take for the company to have the money saved for the renovation is:
= 3.2 years (12.793/4).

stock a has an expected return of 20 and stock b has an expected return of 5. what is the expected return on a portfolio this comprised of 67^ of stock a and 33% stoc k b
Answer:
15.05%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the expected return on a portfolio
Using this formula
Expected return = (Return on stock A * Percentage invested in stock A) + ( Return on Stock B * Percentage invested in Stock B)
Let plug in the formula
Expected return= (20% * 67%) + (5% * 33%)
Expected return= 13.4% + 1.65%
Expected return= 15.05%
Therefore the expected return on a portfolio is 15.05%
There are three sequential operations (Station 1, Satiation 2, and Station 3) in a process. Incoming applications go to station 1 first, then to Station 2, finally to station 3, and then leave the process. There are 1 resources in Station 1, 2 resources in Station 2, and 3 resources in Station 3. The capacity of EACH SINGLE RESOURCE in these stations is 3, 5, and 5 applications per day. The last 3 numbers are the capacity of a single resource (a resource unit) in each of the three stations (resource pools), respectively. This process wors 24 hours a day. Compute the theoretical flow time.
Answer:
1 hour 19 mins
Explanation:
The computation of the theoretical flow time is shown below;
The sequence of operation represent as a Station 1 -> Station 2 -> Station 3
Now
The capacity of each station is
= number of resources × capacity of each resource
Particulars Station 1 Station 2 Station 3
resources 1 2 3
the capacity of
each resource 3 5 5
the capacity of
each station 3 20 15
Now The theoretical flow time for each station is
Station 1 = 60 ÷ (3 ÷ 1) = 20 mins
Station 2 = 60 ÷ (5 ÷ 2) = 24 mins
Station 3 = 60 ÷ (5 ÷ 3) = 35.92 mins
So,
Total theoretical flow time is
= 20 + 24 + 35.92
= 79.92 mins
= 1 hour 19 mins
The theoretical flow time is the minimum amount of time required to process a unit in a manufacturing business. This helps to reduce the time and cost.
The theoretical flow time is 1 hour 19 minutes.
Computation:
The formula used to determine the capacity of each station is:
[tex]\text{Capacity of each station}&=\text{Number of resources}\times\text{Capacity of each Resource}[/tex]
It is computed in the table attached below.
The computation of theoretical flow time for each station is determined by the following formula:
[tex]\text{Theoretical flow time}&=\dfrac{\text{Total Minutes}}{\frac{\text{capacity of each resource}}{\text{Number of resources}}}[/tex]
For station 1 :
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Theoretical Flow time}&=\frac{60}{\dfrac{3}{1}}\\&=20\;\text{minutes}\end{aligned}[/tex]
For station 2:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Theoretical Flow time}&=\frac{60}{\dfrac{5}{2}}\\&=24\;\text{minutes}\end{aligned}[/tex]
For station 3:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Theoretical Flow time}&=\frac{60}{\dfrac{5}{3}}\\&=35.92\;\text{minutes}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Therefore, the total theoretical flow time is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Total Theoretical Flow time}&=20\;\text{minutes}+24\;\text{minutes}+35.92\;\text{minutes}\\&=1\;\text{hour}\;19\;\text{minutes}\end{aligned}[/tex]

In a competitive market with a linear upward-sloping supply curve and a linear downward-sloping demand curve, the government imposes a $10 tax per unit bought and sold. The tax causes the equilibrium quantity to fall from 89 units to 77 units. The deadweight :_______
Answer:
$105
Explanation:
Missing word "The deadweight loss of this tax is...?"
Change in price = $10
Original quantity = 89 units
New quantity = 77 unit
Change in quantity= 89 units-77 units = 12 units
Dead-weight loss = 1/2 * Change in price * Change in quantity
Dead-weight loss = 1/2 * $10 * $21
Dead-weight loss = $105
Therefore, the dead-weight loss of this tax is $105.

Suppose an investment offers to triple your money in 24 months (don't believe it). What rate of return per quarter are you being offered
Answer:
30.77%
Explanation:
Assume investment = $1
Assume mount after 24 months = $5
Number of quarters in 24 months = 24/4 = 6
Future value = P*(1+r)^n; Where P is payment, r is interest rate per period, n is number of periods
5000 = 1*(1+i)^6
1*(1+i) = 5^(1/6)
1+i = 1.30766048601
i = 1.30766048601 - 1
i = 0.30766048601
i = 30.77%
So, the rate of return per quarter being offered is 30.77%

When more than one security is sold for a single price and the total selling price is not equal to the sum of the market prices, the cash received is allocated between the securities based on:
Answer:
Relative market values
Explanation:
Secondary market can be defined as a market where various investors sell and buy securities from other investors.
Some examples of secondary market around the world are New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, London Stock Exchange (LSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE).
On the other hand, the primary market refers to the market where these securities that are being sold are issued or created.
Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.
In sales and marketing, pricing of products, securities or stocks is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.
Generally, when more than one security is sold for a single price and the total selling price is not equal to the sum of the market prices, the cash received is allocated between the securities based on relative market values.
