Labor rate variance is the difference between the actual labor rate and the applied overhead rate (standard rate multiplied by the number of actual hours worked). Consider this and respond to the following: • "Our workers are all under labor contracts. Therefore‚ our labor rate variance is bound to be zero." Do you agree or disagree that the labor rate variance will be zero if all workers are under labor contracts? Explain giving reasons. The concept of labor rate variance and its application

Refraction of light in water Refraction is the change in direction of a wave due to a change in its transmission medium. Due to change of medium‚ the phase velocity of the wave is changed but its frequency remains constant. This is most commonly observed when a wave passes from one medium to another at any angle other than 90° or 0°. Refraction of light is the most commonly observed phenomenon‚ When light travels from air into water‚ it slows down‚ causing it to change direction slightly. This
