Answer:
$85 per machine hour
Explanation:
Actual Budgeted
Fixed costs $50,000 $47,960
Machine hours – Assembly 1,900 1,976
Variable costs – Assembly $121,000 $120,000
since the single rate method does not distinguish between fixed or variable costs, in order to determine the cost allocation rate we must add the fixed allocation rate and the variable allocation rate:
- variable allocation rate = $120,000 / 1976 machine hours = $60.73
- fixed allocation rate = $47,960 / 1976 = $24.27
total = $60.73 + $24.27 = $85 per machine hour

Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": use the indirect strategy.
Explanation:
While giving messages there are two main approaches: <em>the direct </em>and <em>indirect strategy</em>. The direct strategy is used when the main idea of the message is given at the beginning of the speechy to impact or shock the audience. Details of the idea are provided subsequently. The indirect strategy, instead, starts by providing the details to the audience to finally come up with a conclusion.
Thus, <em>while providing refusals, it is more appropriate to use the indirect strategy so customers will know the reason for the non-approval to confirm the negative news at the end.</em>

Answer:
$612
Explanation:
To compute the depreciation, first we have to compute the depreciation per hour which is given below:
= (Cost of diesel-powered tractor - estimated residual value) ÷ (useful operating life)
= ($186,240 - $5,700) ÷ (59,000 hours)
= ($180,540) ÷ (59,000 hours)
= $3.06 per hour
Now the depreciation would be
= Operated hours × depreciation per hour
= 200 units × $3.06
= $612
