A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/11/M/J/18
Question 22 from 9706/11/M/J/18

Explanation

Piece rate wages require clarifying the bonus per excess unit Steps:

  • Basic pay per worker: 40 hours × 50/hour=50/hour = 50/hour=2,000; for 20 workers = $40,000.
  • Excess units per worker: 145 - 120 = 25; total excess = 20 × 25 = 500 units.
  • Piece rate: 20% of 50/hour=50/hour = 50/hour=10, but ambiguous if $10 per unit, per hour equivalent, or prorated by time per unit (standard 40/120 = 1/3 hour/unit).
  • Total wages = basic + piece bonus, but piece application unclear (e.g., 10/unityields10/unit yields 10/unityields5,000 bonus, total $45,000; not in options).
