The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated machine hours)

= ($157,400) ÷ (4,570 machine hours)

A 3-year insurance policy costing $1,164 is taken out november 1, 1995. the property was sold on may 15, 1996, and the day of cl
Debora [2.8K]

To solve: If we assume there are 30 days in the month then the policy was held by the original owner from November 1st – May 15th which is 195 days. Assuming there are 30 days in the month there are 360 days in the year and that is equal to 1,080 for the insurance policy. If we divide the price of the policy, $1,164 by the amount of days the policy will be held for 1,080 then the policy is worth $1.08 a day. Next, take the amount of days the original owner held the policy and multiply it by the amount per day the policy costs (195)($1.08) = $210.60 Then, we need to subtract $210.60 from the full cost of the policy ($1,164 - $210.60) = $953.40 The buyer should pay the seller $953.40 at closing.

What was the major financial change between post-World War II borrowers and borrowers after 1970?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
<span>Two oil shocks, an expansive monetary policy, and growing competition as Europe and Japan recovered from the devastation of World War II.
By the end of the decade, the country went into what came to be called
stagflation, a combination of no growth and rising inflation. In effect, the country had the worst of both worlds.
President Carter’s appointment of Paul Volcker as Federal Reserve Chair started the path to change. He restricted the money supply in a war that drove up unemployment but eventually tamed inflation.
The Reagan presidency started with cuts in spending and income taxes in what was called a ‘supply-side experiment.’
The intent was to stimulate saving, work, and investment. The emphasis that the supply-side approach put on incentives is now a more prominent part of economic thinking, but the experiment itself led to larger fiscal deficits.</span>
