The Valenti Company uses flexible budgeting for cost control. Valenti produced 10,800 units of product during October, incurring

indirect material costs of $13,000. Its master budget reflected indirect material costs of $180,000 at a production volume of 144,000 units. What was the flexible budget variance for the indirect material costs in October?

Answer:

$500 favorable

Explanation:

Given;

Number of units produced  = 10,800 units

Actual indirect material costs = $13,000

Reflected indirect material costs for 144,000 units  = $180,000

Now,

Per unit reflected indirect material costs = $180,000 ÷ 144,000

= $1.25 per unit

Therefore,

Budgeted indirect material cost for actual units produced

= $1.25 × 10,800

= $13,500

since,

the budgeted cost for indirect material cost for actual units produced is more than the actual indirect material cost, therefore

the indirect material costs in October is favorable

amount = Budgeted cost - Actual cost

= $13,500 - $13,000 = $500 favorable

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

a. 2 years

b. 1 year

c. 12 times

Explanation:

Interest period is the duration of the deposit. It is the length of time the money would remain in deposit. This is 2 years according to the question

Compounding period = number of times interest would be paid. In the question, this is a year. So interest would be paid every year

The compounding frequency - it is the number of times the deposit would be compounded. It is 12 months

The future value of the deposit can be determined using this formula :  

FV = P (1 + r/m)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

Louis owns a stock that has an average geometric return of10.50 percent and an average arithmetic return of 11.00 percent over t
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Average annual rate of return should Louis expect to earn over the next four years is 10.7%

Explanation:

The formula we are going o use is:

Expected\ Return=\{(\frac{R-1}{N-1})*i_{g}\}+\{(\frac{N-R}{N-1})*i_{a}\}

Where:

R is the number of years over which Louis expect to earn.

N is the number of years of average arithmetic return.

i_{g} is the average geometric return=10.50%=0.105.

i_{a} is the average arithmetic return =11%=0.11.

Solution:

Expected\ Return=\{(\frac{R-1}{N-1})*i_{g}\}+\{(\frac{N-R}{N-1})*i_{a}\}\\Expected\ Return=\{(\frac{4-1}{6-1})*0.105\}+\{(\frac{6-4}{6-1})*0.11\}\\Expected\ Return=0.107

Average annual rate of return should Louis expect to earn over the next four years is 10.7%

= $37.29 per order

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Overhead costs:

Wages and salaries 220,000

Other expenses 150,000

Total $510,000

Distribution of resource consumption:

Filling Orders Activity Cost Pools

                                    Filling Orders  Customer Support  Other  Total

Wages and salaries             35%                      55%              10%     100%

Other expenses                  35%                       50%              15%     100%

Filling orders 3,500 orders

Customer support 15 customers

Overhead Allocation:

                              Filling Orders  Customer    Other        Total

                                                       Support

Wages and salaries $77,000        $121,000      $22,000     $220,000

Other expenses        53,500           75,000        22,500        150,000

Total                       $130,500       $196,000      $44,500     $370,000

Activity rate for filling orders = $130,500/3,500 = $37.29 per order

ABC or Activity Based Costing technique uses activity pools to accumulate and distribute overhead costs so that costs can be allocated based on the level of activity undertaken for each activity pool.

Highly Suspect Corp. has current liabilities of $401,000, a quick ratio of 1.50, inventory turnover of 3.70, and a current ratio
Scrat [10]

Answer:

$3,115,770

Explanation:

Given:

Current ratio = 3.60

Current liabilities = $401, 000

Quick ratio = 1.50

Inventory turnover = 3.70

Current ratio is calculated by dividing your current assets by your current liabilities.

                     Current\ ratio = \frac{Current\ Assets}{Current\ Liabilities}

                                     3.60 = \frac{Current\ Assets}{401, 000}

                     Current Assets = 3.60 × 401,000

                                               = $1,443,600

                    Quick\ ratio = \frac{(Current\ Assets\ -\  Inventory)}{Current Liabilities}

                    1.50 = \frac{1,443,600\ -\  Inventory}{401,000}

                    1.50 × 401,000 = 1,443,600 - Inventory

                    601,500 = 1,443,600 - Inventory

                    Inventory = 1,443,600 - 601,500

                                     = $842,100

                    Inventory\ Turnover = \frac{Cost\ of\ Goods\ Sold}{Inventory}

                    3.70 = \frac{Cost\ of\ Goods\ Sold}{842,100}

                    Cost of Goods Sold = 3.70 × 842,100

                                                      = $3,115,770
