Answer:
Gordon Company
Overhead Cost = $150,000 + ($52 x Direct Labor Hours)
Budgeted overhead cost For next month = $150,000 + ($52 x 8000)
=$ 150,000+ 416,000
Budgeted overhead cost For next month= $ 566,000
Budgeted overhead cost For next quarter =$150,000 + ($52 x 23,000)
=$ 150,000+ 1196,000
Budgeted overhead cost For next quarter = $ 1346,000
Budgeted overhead cost For next year =$150,000 + ($52 x 99,000)
= =$ 150,000+ 5148,000
Budgeted overhead cost For next year= $ 5298,000

Explanation:
the MACRS 5 year depreciation:
- $375,000 x 20% = $75,000
- $375,000 x 32% = $120,000
- $375,000 x 19.2% = $72,000
- $375,000 x 11.52% = $43,200
- $19,800, since salvage value at year 5 is $45,000
- $0 x 5.76% = $0
salvage value $45,000
total initial investment = $375,000, discount rate = 11%
- cash flow year 1 = {($142,000 - $15,000 - $75,000) x (1 - 34%)} + $75,000 = $109,320
- cash flow year 2 = {($142,000 - $2,000 - $120,000) x (1 - 34%)} + $120,000 = $133,200
- cash flow year 3 = {($142,000 - $2,000 - $72,000) x (1 - 34%)} + $72,000 = $116,880
- cash flow year 4 = {($142,000 - $2,000 - $43,200) x (1 - 34%)} + $43,200 = $107,088
- cash flow year 5 = {($142,000 - $2,000 - $19,800) x (1 - 34%)} + $19,800 + $45,000 = $144,132
the NPV of the project = -$375,000 + $109,320/1.11 + $133,200/1.11² + $116,880/1.11³ + $107,088/1.11⁴ + $144,132/1.11⁵ = $73,133.75
