Explanation:
* as the building is not related to the manufacturing process we cannot capitalized through inventory We will record as cost ofo the period therefore, depreciation expense
** the aplied overhead will be the amount of direct labor added during the period time 83%
85,500 x 83% = 85,500 * 0.83 = 70,965
*** we will have to add up the jobs cost to detemrinate how much of the work in process inventory becomes finished good
Job Materials // Labor // Overhead
A20 $ 37,740 $ 19,200 + 19,200 x 0.83
A21 $ 44,320 $ 23,600 + 23,600 x 0.83

Answer:
$41.56
Explanation:
Since Antiques' dividends have a negative growth rate, we must adjust the perpetuity growth formula to recognize that negative growth:
stock price = [dividend (1 + growth rate)] / (required rate of return - growth rate)
- dividend = $7
- growth rate = -5%
- required rate of return = 11%
stock price = [$7 (1 - 5%)] / (11% - -5%) = ($7 x 95%) / 16% = $6.65 / 16% = $41.56
