Answer:
Activity variance= $310 unfavorable
Explanation:
To calculate the activity variance, we need to use the standard costs and planned activity:
Activity variance= standard cost*planned activity - actual costs
Activity variance= (1,890 + 9*629) - 7,860
Activity variance= 7,551 - 7,860
Activity variance= $310 unfavorable
In a college-level course, Mrs. Smith gives the lectures, sets the due dates, and is the expert on the material. Mr. Doe helps grade papers, offers tutoring sessions for the students, and attends the lectures. Which best describes the two instructors?
Mrs. Smith is a postsecondary teacher, and Mr. Doe is a teaching assistant.
Mr. Doe is a postsecondary teacher, and Mrs.Smith is a teaching assistant.
Mrs. Smith is a high school teacher, and Mr. Doe is a teaching assistant.
Mr. Doe is a high school teacher, and Mrs. Smith is a teaching assistant.
Answer:
Mrs. Smith is a postsecondary teacher, and Mr. Doe is a teaching assistant.
Explanation:
Mrs. Smith gives the lectures, sets the due dates, and is an expert on the material of a "college-level course", therefore, she has to be a postsecondary teacher, as the teacher is responsible for giving the lectures, and has to be an expert on the material.
Mr. Doe helps grade papers, offers tutoring sessions for the students, and attends the lectures. From my experience and the phrase "helps grade papers" rather than just "grades the papers", we can conclude that Mr. Doe is the teaching assistant.

As a bank loan officer, you are considering a loan application by Peak Performance Sporting Goods. The company has provided you with the following information: Cash $ 25,000 Accounts Receivable 45,000 Inventory 140,000 Fixed Assets 190,000 Current Liabilities 70,000 Long-term Liabilities 90,000 Peak Performance's debt to owners' equity ratio (rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent) is:
Answer:
66.7%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Peak Performance's debt to owners' equity ratio
First step is to calculate the Owner's Equity using this formula
Owner's Equity=Total Assets - Total Liabilities
Where,
Total Assets =$25,000 + $45,000 + $140,000 + $190,000
Total Assets = $400,000
Total Liabilities =$70,000 + $90,000
Total Liabilities=$160,000
Let plug in the formula
Owner's Equity=$400,000-$160,000
Owner's Equity=$240,000
Now let Calculate the debt to owners equity ratio using this formula
Debt to owners equity ratio= Debt [total Liabilities]/Owner's Equity
Let plug in the formula
Debt to owners equity ratio = $160,000/$240,000
Debt to owners equity ratio = 0.667*100
Debt to owners equity ratio= 66.7%
Therefore Peak Performance's debt to owners' equity ratio is 66.7%
Sam and Sarah are thinking about getting married. However if either of them cheats on the other, they would get a payoff of 10, while the other person gets zero. If neither cheat, they stay with each other and get a payoff of 7 each and if both cheat, the relationship falls apart and each get a payoff of 1. What is the Nash equilibrium of this game?
Answer:
Self-interest can sometimes lead to sub-optimal outcomes.
Explanation:
In the field of economics, Nash equilibrium can be defined as the system which is stable and it involves the interaction of various participants where no participant can gain by the unilateral change in its strategy if the strategies of the others does not change. In order words, the player can obtain the desired outcome by not deviating or changing from their initial strategy.
In the context, as the outcome of cheating is more than staying together, both Sam and Sarah will tend to cheat and then end up achieving less payoff then what they will get if they stay together.
Therefore, sometimes, self interest can lead to the sub optimal outcomes.

Saturn Industries purchased and consumed 64,000 gallons of direct material that was used in the production of 17,000 finished units of product. According to engineering specifications, each finished unit had a manufacturing standard of four gallons. If a review of Saturn's accounting records at the end of the period disclosed a material price variance of $6,400U and a material quantity variance of $2,800F, what is the actual price paid for a gallon of direct material
Answer:
The actual price = $1.08
Explanation:
The standard material price can be worked out as follows:
Step 1: Work out the standard price of material using the material usage variance
Standard price = Material usage variance/(standard quantity of material - actual quantity)
Standard quantity of material = standard qty per unit × actual production
= 4 × 17,000 =68,000
Standard price = 2,800/(68,000-64,000)= $0.7
Step 2 : Work out the Actual material price using the material price variance
Material price variance = (Standard price - Actual price )× Actual quantity of material
6,400 = (y - 0.7) × 17,000
6400 = 17,000y - 11,900
17,000 y = 6,400 + 11,900
y = 18,300/17,000= 1.08
The actual price = $1.08

Answer:
$1,350,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the total manufacturing overhead costs
First step is to calculate the Variable overhead
Variable overhead= $720,000 + $180,000 +$150,000
Variable overhead=$1,050,000
Second step is to calculate Unitary variable overhead
Unitary variable overhead= $1,050,000/50,000
Unitary variable overhead= 21
Now let calculate the total manufacturing overhead costs
For 60,000 units:
Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs = 21*60,000 + 90,000
Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs= $1,350,000
Therefore the total manufacturing overhead costs is $1,350,000

Answer:
Total cost per unit using absorption costing = $34
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + Variable production overhead + Fixed production overhead
Fixed production overhead = Budgeted overhead/Budgeted production units
unit cost for 2,000 units
Fixed production overhead = $3,144,000/524,000= 6
Total cost = 6 + 11+ 17 = 34
Total cost per unit using absorption costing = $34

Firms HL and LL are identical except for their financial leverage ratios and the interest rates they pay on debt. Each has $23 million in invested capital, has $3.45 million of EBIT, and is in the 25% federal-plus-state tax bracket. Firm HL, however, has a debt-to-capital ratio of 50% and pays 12% interest on its debt, whereas LL has a 30% debt-to-capital ratio and pays only 10% interest on its debt. Neither firm uses preferred stock in its capital structure. Calculate the return on invested capital (ROIC) for each firm. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Answer:
ROIC for firm HL = 11.25%
ROIC for firm LL = 11.25%
Explanation:
Given:
EBIT = $3,450,000
Tax rate = 25%
Invested capital = $23,000,000
Note that the information above is the same for both firms HL and LL. This implies that their ROIC will be the same as calculated below:
ROIC = (EBIT * (100% - Tax rate)) / Invested capital ……………………. (1)
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
ROIC = ($3,450,000 * (100% - 25%)) / $23,000,000 = 0.1125, or 11.25%
Therefore, we have:
ROIC for firm HL = 11.25%
ROIC for firm LL = 11.25%
Break-Even Sales Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $1,350, the unit variable cost is $900, and the total fixed costs are $810,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $1,400. a. Compute the current break-even sales (units). fill in the blank 1 units b. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units), assuming that the unit selling price is increased and all costs remain constant.
Answer:
(A). 1,800 units
(B). 1,620 units
Explanation:
(A). We can calculate the break-even sales by using following formula,
Current break-even sale (Unit) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin/unit
Where, Fixed cost = $810,000
Contribution margin/unit = Unit sell price - Unit variable cost
= $1,350 - $900 = $450
By putting the above value in the formula, we get
Current break-even sale (Unit) = $810,000 ÷ $450
= 1,800units
(B). Similarly, we can calculate the anticipated break-even sales by using following formula:
Anticipated break-even sale(Unit) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin/unit
Where, Fixed cost = $810,000
Contribution margin/unit = Unit sell price - Unit variable cost
= $1,400 - $900 = $500
By putting the above value in the formula, we get
Anticipated break-even sale(Unit) = $810,000 ÷ $500
= 1,620units
