STANDARD COSTING (VARIANCES) 1.1 Material costs variance = (Standard quantity x Standard Price) – (Actual quantity x Actual price) MCV = (SQ × SP) – (AQ × AP) 1.2 Material price variance = Actual quantity × (Standard price – Actual price) MPV = AQ × (SP – AP) 1.3 Material usage variance = Standard price (Standard quantity – Actual quantity) MUV = SP × (SQ –AQ) 1.4 Material cost variance = Material usage variance + Material price variance MCV = MUV + MPV 1.

Activity based costing (ABC) is a relative new way to allocate costs to specific processes and services. This system assures that the costs are accurately distributed to the products or services that generated them. ABC illustrates costs more accurately‚ giving management insight to the cost associated with certain business activities. ABC extends the decision-making skills of management by expanding on traditional costing (job order costing/process order costing) techniques. However‚ since ABC ’s

1i) Demand function for air travel between the U.S. and Europe has been estimated to be: ln Q = 2.737 - 1.247 ln P +1.905 ln I where Q denotes number of passengers (in thousands) per year‚ P the (average) ticket price and I the U.S. national income. Determine the price elasticity and income elasticity of demand (8 points). From Lecture Module 3 Equation 4 we learned the alternative formulation of elasticity. Alternative formulation of elasticity EP = dQ/dP * P/Q = dlnQ/dlnP Natural log:

Objectives and background In an experiment‚ limiting reactant affect the “amount of the product.” In the other way‚ the product this reaction produce dependent on the limiting reactant. For example‚ 1000kg O2 and 1 gram H2 to form water. In this case‚ the 1 gram of H2 will be the limiting reactant. Same thing in displacement reactant. If one of the reactants is (Mole) less than the other one‚ then that reactants becomes the limiting reactants. Once the limiting reactants will completely be ran out of

Consider a monopolist where the market demand curve for the produce is given by P = 520 – 2Q. This monopolist has marginal costs that can be expressed as MC = 100 + 2Q and total costs that can be expressed as TC = 100Q + Q2 + 50. a. Given the above information‚ what is this monopolist’s profit maximizing price and output if it charges a single price? Answer: MR
