<h2>segment and company financial goals are congruent.</h2>

Explanation:

I think the options are missed and hence given below for your reference:

a) decision-making is made by the top executives.

b) investments made by each segment are minimized.

c) identification of operating segments that should be closed.

d) segment and company financial goals are congruent.

Let us understand the meaning:

Congruent: It means two or more things coincides when superimposed.

Financial goals: The target which needs to be achieved in the current financial year.

Segments: Segment speaks about the location, product or service provided by the company.

Financial goals are necessary so that it would be easy to organize and work towards the specific goal.

For the business goal to be achieved, every organization should frame financial targets or goals.

So the important goal is to achieve segment and company financial goals and they become congruent when achieved.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

$18.60

Explanation:

Target cost:

= Sales revenue - Profit

= (No. of units sold × Selling price per unit) - (Investment require × desired return on investment)

= (20,000 × $21) - ($400,000 × 0.12)

= $420,000 - $48,000

= $372,000

Target cost per unit:

= Target cost ÷ Number of units

= $372,000 ÷ 20,000

= $18.60

Therefore, the target cost per unit is closest to $18.60.

Question not complete

Direct Labour Cost is missing

Direct Labor Cost ----- $50,000.00 $270,000.00

Answer:

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $12.2 per labour hour

b. Total Manufacturing Cost = $644

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate to be used in each department.

Given

Cutting Department

The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $264,000

Machine Hours = 48,000

Finishing Department

The Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours.

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $366,000

Direct Labour Cost = $270,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $264,000/48,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $366,000/$270,000

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 1.36

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 136% direct labour cost

The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours

Given

Machine hours = 80 machine hours

Overhead Rate = $5.5 per machine hours ------ Calculated

The Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours.

Given

Direct Labour Cost = 150

Overhead Rate = 136% labour cost ------ Calculated

Overhead Applied (Cutting Department) = 80 * 5.5

Overhead Applied = 440

Overhead Applied (Finishing Department) = 136% * 150

Overhead Applied = $204

Total Overhead Applied = $440 + $204

Total = $644

c. Yes

If they use a plantwide rate based on direct labor cost and if the jobs has longer machine hours and small amount of labor cost they will be charged less overhead cost.
