Answer:
The Darwin Company
Calculation of Manufacturing Overhead costs:
= $17,200
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Depreciation on factory equipment $4,700
Indirect labor 5,900
Factory rent 4,200
Factory utilities 1,200
Indirect materials used 1,200
Total Manufacturing overhead costs = $17,200
b) Darwin's manufacturing overhead costs will include only the above listed costs. Sales commissions, direct materials, direct labor, and office salaries expense do not form part of the manufacturing overhead costs. The manufacturing overhead costs are neither direct materials or labor costs or selling and administration costs.
Answer: The supply of vegetables has shifted to the left along an inelastic demand curve
Explanation: The quantity of vegetables sold has been reduced by 20 percent, which simply means the aggregate market supply curve has experienced a drop/decrease and that is usually indicated by a complete shift of the supply curve to the left.
Furthermore, we can determine easily if the demand is elastic or inelastic, since the question has stated the percentage change in quantity demanded as 20% and the percentage change in price as 30%.
The coefficient of elasticity is calculated as
E = %change in quantity demanded/%change in price
E = 20/30
E =0.66
Since the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1, then it means demand is inelastic.
Answer:
a. 10,000 units
Explanation:
The computations of units completed are shown below:
= Beginning work in process units + units started - closing work in process units
= 3,000 units + 11,000 units - 4,000 units
= 10,000 units
For this question, we ignored the equivalent units as the question has asked about the completed units only
So, all other information is irrelevant
Two constraints to maximizing profit are cost of production and consumer demand.
Consumer demand is essential for revenue. Competition and budget can affect demand and put constraints to profit maximization. Cost of production can constraint profits maximization too because the higher the cost of raw material, the higher the cost of production will be, which in turn will affect the price of the product. This increase in price can also affect the demand.
The answer is then D.
Answer:
Total material price variance= $380 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Material A:
Purchase= 1,000 units
Purchase price= $2.1
Standard price= $2
Material B:
Purchase= 2,400 units
Purchase price= $2.8
Standard price= $3
<u>To calculate the total material price variance, we need to use the following formula on each material:</u>
<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
Total material price variance= -100 + 480
Total material price variance= $380 favorable
