ANSWER 6
C High level = number of units: 48 Low level = number of units: 23 Difference = 25 units Total cost 7,100 Total cost 5, 200 Difference in costs 1,900

Therefore variable cost per unit = 1,900 25 units = 76 Fixed costs = 7100 (76 48 units) = 3,452

C

ANSWER 12
C The employee took 45 hours to perform 99 operations. The standard time allowed per operation is 45 minutes, giving a standard time of (99 [45/60]) = 74.25 hours to perform 99 operations. The time saved is therefore (74.25-45) = 29.25 hours. The bonus payable will be: (time taken/time allowed) time saved hourly rate = (45/74.25) 29.25 8.20 = 145.36

The gross wage for that week will therefore be (45 hours

8.20) + 145.36 = 514.36

ANSWER 33
B

Average cost per kg

(48,000 30,000 42,000) - (1,200 1) 12,000 - 1,200

= $11 per kg

ANSWER 34
A

ANSWER 35
B Input Normal output Actual output Total = 4,000 litres = 4,000 0.95 = Finished goods WIP 3,800 2,900 800 _____ 3,700

Abnormal loss = 3,800 3,700 = 100 litres

ANSWER 36
C As the closing work-in-progress is 60% complete, the number of equivalent units is: 2,900 + 100 + 60% 800 = 3,480

ANSWER 37
D Abnormal loss is valued at the same cost as good output. Value = 100 ($3.32 + 2.20) = $552

ANSWER 38
C Value of closing work-in-progress = 800 $3.32 + 480 $2.20 = $3,712

ANSWER 39
A Output value = 2,900 $5.52 = $16,008

ANSWER 45
B The number of labour hours used to produce 5,000 units is 9,550, and these have cost $52,525. If we had paid the standard cost of $6 an hour, this would have cost $57,300, which gives us a favourable labour rate variance of $4,775.

ANSWER 46
C We should have used 10,000 hours to produce 5,000 units. Instead, we have only used 9,950 hours. This is a favourable hour saving of 450 hours, which at the standard hourly rate of $6, gives a favourable labour efficiency rate of $2,700.

ANSWER 47
B

ANSWER 48
B

OAR =

650,000 = 5.20 per labour hour 125,000

Actual overheads incurred Overheads absorbed

There is an under-absorption (adverse variance) of 665,000 665,000 = 28,000

ANSWER 49
A

ANSWER 50
A The question stated that there were just three possible outcomes for profit in a decision situation. The requirement asked for the most likely level of profits, that is the one of the three possibilities with the highest probability of occurring. The probability of a $28,500 profit was 0.40 ($11,400 / $28,500) and that of a $18,000 profit was 0.45 ($8,100 / $18,500).
