Answer:
$20,880
Explanation:
Under the direct method we ignore services that are provided to the other service departments.
In order to allocate the building operation costs to Operating department A, we need to determine what percentage of the building space taken up by Operating departments is used by Operation Department A.
There is a total of 50000 square feet and Operating Department A occupies 60%(30000/50000 of that.
So Operating Department A will get 60% of the building costs
i.e., 60% × 34800 = 20,880
Net operating income was $24000
Fixed expenses=$96000
Sales=$300000
cost per unit=$20
unit sales=$15000 units
CM=$120,000
CM per unit=$8
BE units=FC/CM per unit=96000/8=12,000 units
