Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Although no revenue or cost can be totally controlled, a cost or revenue is a controllable item when a manager has significant influence over the amount of a cost or revenue. It is uncontrollable if this is not the case. A manager's ability to influence costs and revenues depends on two factors: (1) the manager's level of authority, and (2) the time period involved. Costs and revenue contracts, the economic costs of disposing of fixed assets, and the economy are three conditions that are likely to affect the period of time during which an item is not controllable.
