Geschke Corporation, which produces commercial safes, has provided the following data: Budgeted production 8,500 safes
Standard machine-hours per safe 9.1 machine-hours
Standard supplies cost $1.70 per machine-hour
Actual production 8,700 safes
Actual machine-hours 79,100 machine-hours
Actual supplies cost $123,642

Supplies cost is an element of variable manufacturing overhead. The variable overhead rate variance for supplies is closest to:

a. $10,947 U
b. $119 U
c. $119 F
d. $10,947 F

There are three factors that can affect the shape of the treasury yield curve (r* t , ip t , and mrp t ) and five factors that can affect the shape of the corporate yield curve (r* t , ip t , mrp t , drp t , and lp t ). the yield curve reflects the aggregation of the impacts from these factors. suppose the real risk-free rate and inflation rate are expected to remain at their current levels throughout the foreseeable future. consider all factors that affect the yield curve. then identify which of the following shapes that the us treasury yield curve can take. check all that apply. a. downward-sloping yield curveb. upward-sloping yield curvec. inverted yield curve
