Answer:

The endowment fund is not satisfied with the advisor's performance

Explanation:

Judging from a nominal interest rate perspective where return expected of an investment comprises of real rate of return and an extra return which is a compensation for inflation rate in the economy,the endowment fund is not satisfied with performance of the advisor.

The satisfactory rate of return that would be expected of the advisor is computed below:

nominal interest rate=real rate+inflation rate

real rate is 8.2%

inflation rate is 2.9%

nominal interest rate=8.2%+2.9%

                                  =11.10%

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

3. one case of 24 sodas @ $ 18.50

Explanation:

The question requires that the hosts need to have enough to have two sodas each. The number of guests being 10, the requirement is to have 20 sodas.

Now comparing the various pack sizes available:

1. 20 sodas $ 1.50 per bottle, Total cost $ 30, per serving cost $1.50

2. 4 6 packs @ $ 5 each. Total cost $20, Per serving cost $0.83

3. 24 soda case @ $18.5. Total cost $ 18.50, Per Serving costs $ 0.77

4, 2 x 24 soda cases @ 18.50. Total Cost $ 37.00 Per serving costs $ 0.77

The per serving costs are the same in 3 & 4 above, however, since the requirement is to have 20 sodas and the overall costs as well as the per serving costs is the best in option 3, this is the preferred option.

Freytag Corporation's variable overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor-hours. The company has established the following
Aleks04 [339]

Solution

Given :

Standard direct labor hours = 4.6 hours per unit

Standard variable overhead rate = $ 4.60 per hour

Actual direct labor hours worked = 9400

Actual variable overhead incurred = $ 44,940

Number of units of N06C = 2100 units

Therefore, output absorbed, V.OH = SHAO x budget OH/hr

                                                    = (2100 units x 4.6 per unit) x $ 4.60 per hour

                                                    = $ 44,436

The Input Absorbed V.OH = actual hours x budgeted OH/hour

                                            = 9400 x $ 4.60 per hour

                                            = $ 43,240

Therefore, the variable overhead rate variance is = $ 43,240 - $ 44,436

                                                                                  = $ 1196 (U)
