Answer: 8%

Explanation:

The Annual Percentage Rate or APR for short is calculated by dividing the finance cost by the total amount borrowed in the following manner,

APR = Finance Charge / Amount borrowed.

To calculate the Finance charge we add the interest and the service charge.

Finance charge = 25 + 15

= $40

Back to the APR formula we will have,

APR = Finance Charge / Amount borrowed

APR = 40/500

= 0.08

APR is 8%.

Naily [24]

Answer:

A) affinity pattern

Explanation:

Affinity patterns show associations that occur among objects in the real world. These objects that show affinity patterns or association patterns are not complementary to each other and sometimes may not even be related to each other.

In this case, the fact that it is raining is probably what causes the 85% in cab service usage. If we analyze them separately, cab service and rain have nothing to do with each other, but when it rains more cabs are used.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

a) Sales volume variance = $1496000 unfavorable

flexible-budget variance = $192000 favorable

b) For direct materials

Price variance = `$135000 unfavorable

efficiency variances = $527920 favorable

For direct manufacturing labor

Price variance = `$36600 unfavorable

efficiency variances = $914815 favorable

Explanation:

a) Sales volume variance = (Actual units sold - Budgeted units sold) x Budgeted price per unit = (4800 - 7000) × $680 = $1496000 unfavorable

flexible-budget variance =  (Actual price - Budgeted price) x Actual units sold= ($720 - $680) × 4800 = $192000 favorable

b) For direct materials

Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual quantity of units purchased = ($5.95/ pound - $8/pound) × 66000 pound= `$135000 unfavorable

efficiency variances = (Actual unit - Standard unit) x Standard cost per unit = (66000 pound - 10 pound) × $8 per pound= $527920 favorable

For direct manufacturing labor

Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual hours = ($48/hour - $50/hour) × 18300 hours = `$36600 unfavorable

efficiency variances = (Actual hours - Standard hours) x Standard cost per hour= (18300 hour - 3.7 hour) × $50/hour = $914815 favorable

Answer: Out of all the options shown above the one that best represents the annualized ROI is answer choice C) 30%. To solve this you first need to determine the data that will be needed to solve it. In this case the initial investment which is 10,000, the total profit: 25,000, and finally the total number of years: 5. Then we simply use the following formula: Return on Investment = (Gain from Investment - Cost of Investment)/ cost of investment. You then multiply the result by 100% and finally divide by the number of years which in this case is 5.

I hope it helps, Regards.
