How will the difference between the world price and the domestic price of a good encourage exports and imports?
On May 23, 2024
If an economy is open to international trade, differences between the world price and the domestic price of a good will encourage exports and imports. If the world price is above the domestic price for a good, the good will be exported. If the world price is below the domestic price, the good will be imported. The country with the lower costs of production will be the exporter and the country with the higher costs of production will be the importer.

Canel Incorporated makes a single product--an electrical motor used in many long-haul trucks. The company has a standard cost system in which it applies overhead to this product based on the standard machine-hours allowed for the actual output of the period. Data concerning the most recent year appear below:
Required:
a. Determine the fixed overhead budget variance for the year.
b. Determine the fixed overhead volume variance for the year.
Required:a. Determine the fixed overhead budget variance for the year.
b. Determine the fixed overhead volume variance for the year.

a. Budget variance = Actual fixed overhead − Budgeted fixed overhead
= $182,965 − $163,965 = $19,000 Unfavorable
b. Fixed component of the predetermined overhead rate = $163,965/25,500 machine-hours
= $6.43 per machine-hour
Volume variance = Budgeted fixed overhead − Fixed overhead applied to work in process
= $163,965 − ($6.43 per machine-hour × 22,100 machine-hours)
= $163,965 − ($142,103)
= $21,862 Unfavorable
= $182,965 − $163,965 = $19,000 Unfavorable
b. Fixed component of the predetermined overhead rate = $163,965/25,500 machine-hours
= $6.43 per machine-hour
Volume variance = Budgeted fixed overhead − Fixed overhead applied to work in process
= $163,965 − ($6.43 per machine-hour × 22,100 machine-hours)
= $163,965 − ($142,103)
= $21,862 Unfavorable

Describe what kinds of task groups might influence policy.
On May 21, 2024
Task groups that might influence policy can vary widely depending on the specific issue at hand. For example, a task group of environmental scientists and researchers might influence environmental policy by providing data and analysis on the impact of certain policies on the environment. Similarly, a task group of healthcare professionals and economists might influence healthcare policy by providing insights into the cost and effectiveness of different healthcare interventions. In the realm of education, a task group of educators and child development experts might influence education policy by offering recommendations on curriculum and teaching methods. Ultimately, any group of experts or stakeholders with relevant knowledge and expertise in a particular area can potentially influence policy through their recommendations and advocacy efforts.
