$ 12180Explanation:Given data in the problem:Variable cost for each connector = $ 145 Fixed cost per month = $ 7500Predicted production and sales = 100 connectorsActual production and sales = 84 connectorsTotal cost of the connectors = $ 21000Now, The total flexible budget cost for 84 connectors is calculated as:= 84 × variable costorThe total flexible budget cost for 84 connectors = 84 × $ 145orThe total flexible budget cost for 84 connectors = $ 12180
Option D. All of the above.Explanation:The reason is that time and motion studies is basically about scientific engineering and is helpful in increasing the efficiency. Hence is can be used for setting direct labor standards.Furthermore, continuous improvement model would be used for looking at processes that will be helpful in increasing the efficiency.
