Answer:

$90,000

Explanation:

We could allocate assembly overhead on the basis of the parts used in the assembly process:

wheels ⇒ 300,000 x 2 parts = 600,000 parts

<u>seats ⇒ 600,000 x 3 parts = 1,800,000 parts</u>

total parts assembled     2,400,000 parts

overhead costs per part assembled = $360,000 / 2,400,000 parts = $0.15 per part

so the overhead allocated to wheels should be = 600,000 parts x $0.15 per part = $90,000

Answer: ∑Tₓ = 201.222

time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

Explanation:

Given that,

total time required to four units is 600 hours,

Learning curve applied is 75% and from the learning curve coefficient table, total time factor to complete four units at 75% learning curve is 2.946

so

∑Tₙ = T₁ × total time factor

{ ∑Tₙ is total time required to complete all the units which is 600 hrs, T₁ is Time for first unit, total time factor = 2.946 }

we substitute

∑T₄ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

600 = ∑T₁ × 2.946

∑T₁  = 600/2.946

∑T₁  = 203.666 minutes

Now to get the total time required to complete 6 units, we say:

∑T₆ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

Note that total time factor at this point changes;

( from the learning curve coefficient table, total time factor to complete 6 units at 75% learning curve is 3.934)

so we substitute

∑T₆ = 203.666 × 3.934

∑T₆ = 801.222

Now to find how long should it take them to finish the last two units, we say

∑Tₓ = ∑T₆ - ∑T₄

∑Tₓ = 801.222 - 600

∑Tₓ = 201.222

Therefore time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

Recommend ways to deal with the following personalities in the workplace"
Roman55 [17]
1) Know the complaint. Ask what they think is the best solution to resolve the problem. Weigh the pros and cons of their suggestions. If more pros than cons, implement their suggestions. If more cons than pros, ask them to suggest other ways of solving their complaints.
2) Narrow down the choices. Give them shorter time to think and hold them to their decision.
3) Let them share their expertise with others. 
4) Let them share their ideas more. Let them be more involve in team activities so that they will feel that they belong.
5) Give them projects that they can kickstart. That way they will have a way to channel their aggressiveness. Let them be part of team building activities to help them adjust with other people's personalities.

Think of the market for loanable funds. A policy that induces people to save more or that reduces the governmet's budget deficit
Lisa [10]

Answer:

shifts the supply of loanable funds and reduces interest rates.

Explanation:

The supply and demand curves of money (loanable funds) work in the same way as every other good or service. When the supply of a good or service increases, the supply curve shifts to the right, increasing total quantity supplied and decreasing equilibrium price. When we are talking about loans, the equilibrium price is the interest rate.

= Book value of mailing + net working capital - Long term debt

= $25,955 + $92,535  $65,077

= $53,413

Hence, the book value of the shareholder equity is $53,413
