For this 2 page response paper (double spaced) please answer the following questions thoroughly:

During the 1950s we see (especially on TV) a postwar effort to reconstruct family life after a major world war. Images of the nuclear family dominate these shows. We see women as homemakers who are not challenging their prescribed gender roles. Sexuality does not exist on these shows.

In contrast, we also have film images such as Doris Day. As discussed Day does challenge the image of the woman in the home(we see Day as an independent, single, successful woman) but she upholds proper images regarding sexuality and sexual behavior.

Another film image and icon of the time is the very famous Marilyn Monroe. After reading the bios and watching clips on Monroe, Barbie and Beauty Pageants (all very popular things in the 50s) please answer the following:

What messages are inherent in beauty pageants, barbie and even icons such Marilyn Monroe in terms of beauty and sexuality in the 1950s? Please discuss all three. How are they able to remain popular during conservative times in the popular culture? How do they uphold some of the messages that dominate the time?
What do they say about race and class?

Finlon Upholstery Inc. uses a job-order costing system to accumulate manufacturing costs. The company\’s work-in-process on December 31, 2001, consisted of one job (no. 2077), which was carried on the year-end balance sheet at $156,800. There was no finished-goods inventory on this date.

Finlon applies manufacturing overhead to production on the basis of direct-labor cost. (The budgeted direct-labor cost is the company\’s practical capacity, in terms of direct-labor hours multiplied by the budgeted direct-labor rate.) Budgeted totals for 2002 for direct labor and manufacturing overhead are $4,200,000 and $5,460,000, respectively. Actual results for the year are as follows:

Actual Results
Direct Materials Used$5,600,000.00
Direct Labor$4,350,000.00
Indirect Material Used$65,000.00
Indirect Labor$2,860,000.00
Factory Depreciation$1,740,000.00
Factory Insurance$59,000.00
Factory Utilities$830,000.00
Selling and Administrative Expenses$2,160,000.00
Total$17,664,000.00
Job no. 2077 was completed in January 2002, and there was no work in process at year-end. All jobs produced during 2002 were sold with the exception of Job no. 2143, which contained direct-material costs of $156,000 and direct-labor charges of $85,000. The company charges any under- or over-applied overhead to the cost of goods sold category.

Using the above information, do the following:

Calculate the companys predetermined overhead application rate.
Calculate the additions to the work-in-process inventory account for the direct material used, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.
Calculate the finished-goods inventory for the 12/31/02 balance sheet.
Calculate the over-applied or under-applied overhead at year-end.
Explain if it is appropriate to include selling and administrative expenses in the cost of goods sold category.
Perform your calculations in an Excel spreadsheet and copy the calculations into a Word document.

Write a 1-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M1_A3.doc

Your paper has three parts, a summary, a reaction, and an integration of the text, articles and class discussion. This paper should consist of a summary of the article you have chosen, your reaction to the article and a section on how the article connects to similar issues raised in your text, articles read for class and class discussion. Think about using the extensive reference lists at the end of each chapter as possible sources for your articles. The summary should consist of the major points made in the article and a summary should always be in your own words. Your reaction section should include not only whether you agree or dont agree with the major points of the article but also why; that is, you should explain the reasons for your reaction. The summary would ordinarily be approximately 1 12 pages, and the reaction and integration of the text, articles, and class discussion 1 page each.

The article is
