Komok [63]

Answer: Option(b) is the correct option.

Explanation:

According to the question,we are provided with investment value which is $148,000.

  • Therefore, Net present value (NPV)of Children Clothing will be calculated as :-

        $121,000 - $148,000  = - $27,000

Thus, a negative value of NPV of children clothing is      obtained which is not an acceptable value option.

  • Now ,Net present value(NPV) of Exclusive gift is as follows:-

$178,000 - $148,000= $30,000

As the obtained NPV value for exclusive gift option is $30,000 which is a positive value, it can be accepted

  • Now, calculation of NPV of decorator items is as follows:-

 $145,000 - $148,000= - $3,000

Net present value of decorator items is obtained as -$3,000 which is a negative value.Thus, it is not acceptable.

Therefore, the correct option is option(b) because it as positive value of NPV and decorator items and children clothing as negative NPV value which makes them unacceptable .

Purchase price= $2.1

Standard price= $2

Material B:

Purchase= 2,400 units

Purchase price= $2.8

<u></u>

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

<u>Material A:</u>

Direct material price variance= (2 -2.1)*1,000

Direct material price variance= $100 unfavorable

<u>Material B:</u>

Direct material price variance= (3 - 2.8)*2,400

Direct material price variance= $480 favorable
