Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The high-low method involves taking the highest level of activity and the lowest level of activity and comparing the total costs at each level.

Mountain has recorded the following for the past nine months:

January:

Number of Cavities= 375

Total cost= $5,300

February:

Number of Cavities  500

TC= 5,850

March

Number of Cavities 350

TC= 5,200

April

Number of Cavities 600

TC=6,250

May

Number of Cavities 325

TC= 5,150

June

Number of Cavities 475

TC= 5,700

July

Number of Cavities 525

TC= 6,100

August

Number of Cavities  575

TC= 6,300

September

Number of Cavities  450

TC= 5,550

A) Variable cost= (Highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (Highest activity units - lowest activity units)

Variable cost= (6300 - 5150) / (600 - 325)= 4.18 per unit

Fixed cost= HACost - (variable cost per unit * HAUnits)= 6300 - (4.18*600)= 3792

Fixed cost= LACost - (variable cost per unit* LAUnits)= 5150 - (4.18*325)= 3792

B)  Q= 400

Total cost= 3792 + 4.18*400= $5464

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Intragroup.

Explanation:

A manager can be defined as an individual who is saddled with the responsibility of providing guidance, support, supervision, administrative control, as well as acting as a role model or example to the employees working in an organization by being morally upright.

Generally, managers are typically involved in taking up leadership roles and as such are expected to be build a strong relationship between their employees or subordinates by creating a fair ground for effective communication and sharing of resources and information. Also, they are required to engage their staff members (entire workforce) in the most efficient and effective manner.

A functional (departmental) organizational structure is a type of structure used to organize staffs by dividing them into various departments based on their skill set, roles or functions and knowledge.

These departments which are vertically structured may include, finance, IT, sales and marketing, research and development, customer service etc. Also, the various departments are headed by a functional manager who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing, managing and reporting to the executive management.

In this scenario, two managers in the same department of a company disagree on whether to outsource the development of a new product or staff it internally. Thus, this is an example of intragroup conflict because its happening within the same department of an organization having common goals and interests.

An intragroup conflict can be defined as a type of conflict that arises between individuals belonging to the same team or group.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

C. The termination of the firm's legal existence.

Explanation:

General partners are individuals, two or more , who come together to own a business and controls daily activities of the business. Each member has unlimited liability and their action can legally bind the activities of the business. They share profit and losses equally.

According to fact pattern 27-3, if the partners agree to dissolve one of their business line- equity lending as in the case above and the company's assets are shared among the partners, it would result in the termination of the firm's legal existence.

Once there is a breach by any of the partners as contained in the partnership agreement and the partner's asset shared, that is dissolution. The partnership business has therefore been terminated legally and cease to exit.
