Answer:

The amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department is $159,900 to mixing and $86,100 to bottling

Explanation:

In order to determine the amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department we would have to calculate first the percentage of area for each deparment as follows:

Particular      Area in square feet         %

mixing                  27,235                          65

bottling                14,665                           35

Total Area           41,900                          100

Therefore, if the maintentance cost is $246,000, the amount of maintenance costs allocated to each operating department is as follows:

Particular                %                   Allocation of expense

mixing                  65                          159,900=246,000×65/100

bottling                35                           86,100=246,000×35/100

                           100                          246,000

You recently purchased a stock that is expected to earn 10 percent in a booming economy, 4 percent in a normal economy, and lose
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

b. 3.70 percent

Explanation:

Expected rate of return of a stock, given probabilities,  is calculated by summing up the product of probability of each state occurring by the expected return of the stock should that happen.

Expected rate of return = SUM (probability *return)

Boom;(probability* return) = (0.15* 0.10) = 0.015 or 1.5%

Normal ;(probability* return) = (0.70* 0.04) = 0.028 or 2.8%

Recession ; (probability* return) = (0.15* -0.04) = -0.006 or -0.6%

Next, sum up the expected return for each state of the economy to find the expected rate of return on this stock;

= 1.5% + 2.8% -0.6%

= 3.7%

Therefore, the correct answer is choice B.

The W. J. Clinton Company issued 750 shares of $1 stated value common stock in exchange for land from the Whitewater Investment
MrMuchimi

Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows:

Land  Dr $70,000

Additional paid in capital  $5,000

             To Common stock $75,000

(Being the common stock is issued in exchanged for cash)

The computation of the additional paid in capital is shown below:

= Common stock - the appraised value of land

where,

The common stock = 750 shares × $100 = $75,000

And, the  appraised value of land is $70,000

So, the remaining balance is

= $75,000 - $70,000

= $5,000

The $5,000 would be recorded as an additional paid in capital

Zhang Industries budgets production of 400 units in June and 410 units in July. Each finished unit requires 5 pounds of raw mate
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $12,060.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Production in June = 400 units

Production in July = 410 units

Each unit required = 5 pounds

Cost per pound = $6

So, June required raw material = 400 units × 5 pounds = 2000 pounds

For July required raw material = 410 units × 5 pounds × 20% = 410 pounds

So, required total raw material for June = 2000 pounds + 410 pounds - 400 pounds ( already in inventory)

= 2010 pounds

So, the total cost required for raw material in June = 2010 pounds × $6

= $12,060

Hence, the budgeted cost of purchases for raw material K for June is $12,060.

A watch manufacturer incurs a variable cost of $10 per watch and fixed costs of $400,000. To earn a 25 percent markup on selling
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

$22.50 per unit

Explanation:

Mark -up is the percentage of cost that is earned as profit.

Using mark-up,

Selling price = Total cost + total profit

Total cot = Fixed cost + variable cost

Total costs = $400,000 +  (10× 50,000)

                   = $900,000

Sales revenue = 125%× 900,000

                       = 1,125,000

Selling price per unit = Sales revenue/units

                       =1,125,000/50,000

                     = $22.50 per unit
