lyudmila [28]

Answer:

0.66

Explanation:

the fourfirm concentration ratio is the sum of the concentration ratio of the four largest firms in the industry.

The sales of the second largest firm = $35 million - ( $10 million + $4 million+ $2 million + $12 million ) = $7 million

concentration ratio of firm 1 = $10 million / $35 million = 0.29

concentration ratio of firm 2  = $7 million / $35 million = 0.2

concentration ratio of firm 3 = $4 million / $35 million = 0.11

concentration ratio of firm 4 = $2 million / $35 million = 0.06

Adding the ratios together = 0.66

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

For Machining department,

Manufacturing overhead rate:

= Estimated Overhead cost ÷ Amount of allocation base

= [$1,000,000 ÷ (130,000 + 70,000) machine hours]

= $1,000,000 ÷ 200,000 machine hours

= $5.00 per machine hour

For Finishing department,

Manufacturing overhead rate:

= Estimated Overhead cost ÷ Amount of allocation base

= [$100,000 ÷ (9,000 + 71,000) direct labor hours]

= $100,000 ÷ 80,000 direct labor hours
