A manufacturing company has a standard costing system based on standard direct labor-hours (DLHs) as the measure of activity. Data from the company's flexible budget for manufacturing overhead are given below: Denominator level of activity 3,700DLHs
Overhead costs at the denominator activity level:
Variable overhead cost$28,490
Fixed overhead cost$47,545
The following data pertain to operations for the most recent period:

Actual hours 3,900DLHs
Standard hours allowed for the actual output 3,850DLHs
Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost$29,445
Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead cost$47,995
The fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance for the period is closest to:

A. $643 U
B. $2,570 F

Let's consider a hypothetical airline, mudlarks airlines. on one of its flights, precious records show that about 15% of people who had tickets for the flights did not take the flight. there are 120 seats on the plane. 1. how many tickets should mudlarks airlines sell for this flight? 2. as an added consideration, suppose that tickets on this flight cost a flat rate of $250. in addition, mudlarks airlines must give any traveler who purchased a seat for the flight, but who cannot travel due to overbooking, a $400 certificate for their trouble. does this change your answer in question one? now, suppose that mudlarks airlines forms a partnership itch another airline, puffin air. their agreement allocates 100 seats on the flight to mudlarks airlines and another 20 seats to puffin air. the 2 airlines sell tickets for the flight independently of each other. 3. assuming the same 15% no show percent for each airline, how many tickets should each sell?
