Answer:

$9,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the total fixed overhead variance is shown below:

= Actual fixed overhead costs - Budgeted fixed overhead

where,

Budgeted fixed overhead  is $360,000

And, the Actual fixed overhead cost is computed below:

= Actual fixed overhead × Actual production  ÷ budgeted production

= $360,000 × 11,700 units ÷ 12,000 units

= $351,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $351,000 - $360,000

= $9,000 unfavorable

Answer:

Free slack.

Explanation:

In project management, free slack refers to the amount of time that a certain task can be delayed and not affect the completion time of the general project. Slack time can be considered "just in case" time, because even though delays should be minimized, rarely you can eliminate them completely, and slack time gives you a little extra room for managing projects.

In this case, the free slack time is 10 days, and this delay will consume 9 of them.

Short-term interest rates are more volatile than long-term rates. Despite this, the rates of return of long-term bonds are more
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Short term interest rates are more volatile (or change more often) because the FED uses them to control inflation and the money supply. Generally, when the FED engages in either expansionary or contractionary monetary policies, they will use short term interest rates. Even if they change more often, their nominal rates are generally very low, and a small change does the job. So they change more often, but in a very small proportion.

On the other hand, long term securities yield much more volatile returns because they last much longer and any small change in interests rates will result in a larger proportional change of returns in the long run. The longer the bonds, the larger the effect of any change in the market rates.

oee [108]

Answer:

Estimated direct labor hours= 180,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Overhead for the year was estimated to be $900,000.

Smith has applied overhead of $73,000

It applies overhead based on direct labor hours and those equaled 14,600 in November.

We have to reverse engineer the allocation method for manufacturing overhead.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

73,000= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*14,600

$5= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $5 per direct labor hour

Now, we can determine the estimated direct labor hours:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

5= 900,000/ total amount of allocation base

5*X= 900,000

total amount of allocation base= 180,000

Estimated direct labor hours= 180,000
