Answer: $22,500
Explanation:
First calculate the rate of allocation based on sales to determine how much of Department T's sales should be attributed to Advertising.
The Rate of Allocation based on Sales = Advertising Expense/Total sales
= 50,000/475,000
= 0.105263
= 10.5263%
This 10.5% can then be used to find out how much of Advertising to apportion to Department T based on department sales,
= Department sales * Allocation rate
= 213,750 * 10.5263%
= $22,500
$22,500 should be allocated to Department T.
Answer:
The total contribution margin for the firm is: $209,095
Explanation:
The contribution margin is calculated by using following formula:
Contribution margin = Total sales – Total variable costs
In International Imports,
Total sales = $674,500
Total variable costs = cost of goods sold + total variable selling and administrative expense = $404,700 + $60,705 = $465,405
Contribution margin = $674,500 - $465,405 = $209,095

Solution:
Inventory 21,320 debit
A/P 21,320 credit
--to record purchase from Game Girl --
Inventory 360 debit
Cash 360 credit
--to record the freight-in--
A/P 1,560 debit
Inventory 1,560 credit
--to record returned goods to GameGirl--
A/P 19,760 debit
Inventory 395 credit
Cash 19,365 credit
--to record payment to GameGirl--
accounts receivables 17,360 debit
sales revenues 17,360 credit
COGS 8,406 debit
8,406 credit
--to record sale and subsequent cost of the sale--
total amount of the purchase in dollars:
82 game devices x 260 dollars each = 21,320
six returned devices:
6 x 260 = 1,560
invoice balance: 21,320 - 1,560 = 19,760
discount because payment within the first ten days:
19,760 x 2% = 395
final value: 19,760 - 395 = 19,365
sale of 62 devices at 280 = 17,360
We are given the skills of each worker:
Sasha is very good at producing computer-generated graphics
Maurice is skilled at designing logos with pen and paper
To address the immediate problem, Hector's action should be to assign Maurice to do the design in a paper then pass it to Sasha for generating it on the computer. It could also be that if a client requests a paper design, Maurice does it and for computer-generated designs, Sasha will do it.
The corrective action that he should do is let Sasha and Maurice attend trainings for their weaknesses. <span />
