Explanation:
Guitars produced each month = 100
considered good enough to sell = 82%
Remaining are scrapped = 18 %
Selling price of each guitar = $260
Each guitar requires = 10 labor hours
Each employee works an average = 160 hours per month
Labor is paid = $11 per hour
materials cost = $40 per guitar
overhead = $4,200
Therefore,
Number of guitars are good enough to sell = 82% of 100
= 82 guitars
Value of output = Number of guitars sell × Selling price of each guitar
= 82 × $260
= $21,320
Input in labor hours = Guitars produced each month × Labor hour employed in each guitar
= 100 × 10
= 1,000 hours
Labor productivity =
=
= 21.32 per hour
Answer:
13.7%
Explanation:
The weight to be placed on preferred while computing the company's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the market value of the preferred stock divided by the market value of the company as a whole.
market of preferred stock=5,000*$26=$130,000
Market value of the company=market value of common stock+market value of preferred stock+market value of bond
common stock market value=12,000*$39=$468,000
market value of bond=$400,000*87%=$348,000
Weight of preferred stock=$130,000
/($130,000
+$468,000+$348,000)=0.137420719
=13.7%
Answer:
Overhead= $6,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Job 403:
Direct material= $40,000
Total manufacturing costs = $50,000
Boxer applies overhead at 150% of direct labor cost.
Total manufacturing costs= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
50,000= 40,000 + (direct labor + allocated overhead)
(direct labor + allocated overhead)= $10,000
<u>We know that overhead is 50% higher than direct labor. In 100%, direct labor would de 40% and overhead 60%.</u>
direct labor=10,000*0.4= $4,000
Overhead= 10,000*0.6= $6,000
