Resling Travel offers helicopter service from suburban towns to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City. Each of

its 9 helicopters makes between 1,300 and 2,300 ​round-trips per year. The records indicate that a helicopter that has made 1,300 ​round-trips in the year incurs an average operating cost of ​$600 per​ round-trip, and one that has made 2,300 ​round-trips in the year incurs an average operating cost of ​$450 per​ round-trip.
Required:
1. Using the high-low method, estimate the linear relationship y =a + bX , where y is the total annual operating cost of a helicopter and X is the number of round-trips it makes to JFK airport during the year.
2. Give examples of costs that would be included in a and in b.
3. If Reisen Travel expects each helicopter to make, on average, 1,200 round-trips in the coming year, what should its estimated operating budget for the helicopter fleet be?

Answer:

1.  y = $255 + $0.15 X

2. <u>Examples of costs that would be included in a and in b.</u>

a - Fixed Cost

Example : Maintenance Cost over the period

b - Variable Cost

Example : Maintenance Cost after every flight

3. $435

Explanation:

<u>linear relationship</u>

Fist determine the high point and the low point

High : 2,300 ​round-trips

Low  : 1,300 ​round-trips

Then determine the variable cost

<em>Variable Cost = Difference between Overheads ÷ Deference in Independent variables </em>

                       = ($600 - $450) ÷ (2,300 - 1,300)

                       = $0.15 per  round-trip

Determine the fixed cost element

<em>Fixed Cost = Total Overheads - Variable cost at a point</em>

Choosing the Highest point this will be :

Fixed Cost = $600 - $0.15 × 2,300

                  = $255

Then the  linear relationship y =a + bX will be  :   y = $255 + $0.15 X

<u>Examples of costs that would be included in a and in b.</u>

a - Fixed Cost

Maintenance Cost over the period

b - Variable Cost

Maintenance Cost after every flight

<u>Operating budget for the helicopter fleet with  1,200 round-trips in the coming year</u>

y = $255 + $0.15 X

   = $255 + $0.15 × (1,200)

   = $435

Less Common shares 5,000

Common shares outstanding 295,000 shares

2. Calculation for the stated value of the common stock

Stated value of the common stock

$1,500,000/150,000

Stated value of the common stock = $10 per share

3. Calculation for What is the par value of the preferred stock

Par value of the preferred stock=$300,000/5,000

Par value of the preferred stock=$60 par value

4. Calculation for dividend rate on preferred stock

Dividend rate on preferred stock=$18,000/$300,000 = 6%

5. Calculation for what would be the balance in Retained Earnings

Balance in Retained Earnings= $2,050,000 -$36,000

Balance in Retained Earnings=$2,046,400

Context content and culture are
Black_prince [1.1K]

Complete Question:

Context, content and culture are:

O Important ethical concepts

O Important marketing concepts

O Corporate ethics policy

O Three dimensions of evaluating corporate gifts.

Answer:

Context, content and culture are:

O Three dimensions of evaluating corporate gifts.

Explanation:

Corporate gifts may turn out to be regarded as bribery if they are meant to induce the other party to alter their behaviors.  This is why in evaluating corporate gifts, the criteria have always included the context (the circumstances in which the gifts are given), the content (how much is given), and the culture (the accepted general practice in a particular industry, locality, or region).  Generally, corporate gifts are given either as means of showing appreciation, creating positive first impression, or returning some favors.

Bayest Manufacturing Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (b).

Explanation:

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

first we calculate the predetermined OH, then

Predetermined OH rate = Estimated Manufacturing OH Cost ÷ Estimated Direct Labor Hours

= $451,140 ÷ 61,800

= 7.3

So, Applied MOH = 60,500 × 7.3 = $441,650

So, Underapplied OH = Actual MOH - Applied MOH

= $532,000 - $441,650

= $90,350 (under applied)
