Daniel [21]

Answer:

a)J = 450,000 +(20% * C)

b)C =250000+ (50%*J )

c)J = 450000 + {20%* [250000+(50%*J)}

Explanation:

a)J = 450,000 +(20% * C)

This represent the total cost of Janitorial Department due to the fact that 450000 is a direct cost of janitorial department plus 20% of total cost of Cafeteria department allocated to Janitorial department.

b)C =250,000+ (50%*J )

This represent the total cost of cafeteria Department due to the fact that 250,000 is a direct cost of cafeteria department plus 50% of total cost of Janitorial department allocated to cafeteria department.

Substituting the value of C determined in part b in part a

J = 450,000 + {20%* [250,000+(50%*J)}

Therefore in place of C in equation 1 ,the value of c determined in equation 2 is thereby substituted .

KiRa [710]

Answer:

$8.20/Direct Labor hours

Explanation:

Cost of performing engine repair work = Shop and repair equipment depreciation + Shop supervisor salaries + Shop property taxes + Shop supplies

Cost of performing engine repair work = $40,000 + $133,000 + $22,000 + $10,000

Cost of performing engine repair work = $205,000

Direct Labor Hours = Direct Labor/Direct Labor rate

Direct Labor Hours = 500,000/$20 per hour

Direct Labor Hours = 25,000 hours

Predetermined shop overhead rate per direct labor hour = $205,000 / 25,000 Hours = $8.20/Direct Labor hours

Answer:

Since the calculated value of F= 5.733 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis and conclude all three means are not equal.

The results of excel are:

Anova: Single Factor

SUMMARY

Groups Count Sum Average Variance

Column 1 5 54 10.8 1.2

Column 2 5 40 8 2

Column 3 5 42 8.4 2.8

1) Let the null and alternate hypotheses be

H0: u1=u2=u3 i.e all the three means are equal and

Ha: Not all three means are equal

2) The significance level is set at ∝ =0.05

3)The test statistic to use is

F= sb²/ sw²

which has F distribution with v1= k-1 →3-1=2 and v2= n-k →15-3=12 degrees of freedom

After calculations the following table is obtained.

4) The critical region is F ≥ F(0.05, 2,12) = 3.885

5) Since the calculated value of F= 5.733 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis and conclude all three means are not equal.
