Answer:

Hi you haven't provided the options to the question so I will just give the answer in my own words and you can check with the options.

Answer is ASSIGNABLE VARIATION.

Explanation:

Variation is a lack of consistency. It can introduce waste and errors into a process, for example, a manufacturing process.

There are two sources of variation which are:

1. Natural variations: are random variations that are expected and are a part of almost every production process which results from a number of chance causes.

2. Assignable variations: are trend factors that can be traced to a specific reason, such as machine tear, fatigued workers or untrained workers, flawed principles, equipment that is not properly adjusted or calibrated, or raw material problems.

According to the question, a machine was not properly set-up/calibrated which caused a wide variation of quality of the products it produced. Since the cause (improper setup/calibration) can be traced to a specific reason, therefore, the type of variation is an example of ASSIGNABLE VARIATIONS.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The correct answer is $60,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Expenditure for Jan.1 = $334,000

Time period ( Jan.1 - Dec.31 ) = 12 months

So, average expenditure = $334,000

Similarly, Expenditure for Sep.1 = $498,000

Time period ( Sep.1 - Dec.31 ) = 4 months

So, average expenditure = $498,000 × 4÷12 = $166,000

Now, Expenditure for Dec.31 = $498,000

Time period ( Dec.31 - Dec.31 ) = 0 months

So, average expenditure = $498,000 × 0÷ 12 = 0

So, capitalized interest = ( average expenditure Jan.1 + average expenditure Sep.1 + average expenditure Dec.31) × 12%

= ($334,000 + $166,000 + $0) × 12%

= $500,000 × 12%

= $60,000

Brian invests $11,500, at 6% interest, compounded semiannually for 2 years. Manually calculate the compound amount (in $) for hi
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The important thing to remember here is that the interest is compounded semi annually, which means twice a year. When the 1st interest is compounded, the second interest is calculated on that new amount.

(11,500 + (11,500×6%)) = $ 12,190

(12,190 + (12190×6%)) = $ 12921.40
