A company had a standard sales price of $1.79 per unit and expected to sell 10,000 units. Due to a downturn in the economy, the product was marked down to $1.59 per unit and the company only sold 9,500 units. Calculate the sales price variance.

Sales price variance = $1,900.

Explanation:

We know,

Sales price variance = (Standard sales price - Actual sales price) × Actual sales quantity

Given,

Standard sales price = $1.79 per unit.

Actual sales price = $1.59 per unit.

Actual sales quantity = 9,500 units.

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Sales price variance = (Standard sales price - Actual sales price) × Actual sales quantity

or, Sales price variance = ($1.79 -  $1.59) × 9,500

or, Sales price variance = $0.2 × 9,500

or, Sales price variance = $1,900.

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'

the correct answer is - no.
