Mike has one hour to spend at the gym where he will jog, play handball and cycle. jogging uses 10 calories per minute, handball

slega [8]

Let
x = minutes used for jogging
y = minutes used for handball
z = minutes used for cycling

Th total time spent is 1 hour (60 minutes), therefore
x + y + z = 60

Because Mike jogs as long as he cycles, therefore
x = z
Therefore
2x + y = 60
or
y = 60 - 2x (1)

Jogging consumes 10 calories/min, handball consumes 9 calories/min and cycling consumes 12 calories/min.
The calories consumed in 60 minutes is 580, therefore
10 x + 9y + 12z = 580
Because x = z,
22x + 9y = 580 (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
22x + 9(60 - 2x) = 580
22x + 540 - 18x = 580
4x = 40
x = 10
y = 60 - 2x = 40
z = x = 10

Answer:
10 minutes of jogging
40 minutes of handball
10 minutes of cycling.

Alais is a clothing fashion designer known for her French style of elaborate heirloom smocking combined with industrial elements

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The answer is: Alais will prevail because of material breach of the contract

Explanation:

Material breach in contract law refers to one party failing to perform under the contract significantly enough so that the aggrieved party has the right to sue for breach of contract.

In this case when Rutherford failed to perform, Alais sustained enough "damage" that enables her to sue Rutherford. She probably was no longer able to finish her job in time.

Vijay Company reports the following information regarding its production costs. Direct materials $9.60 per unit Direct labor $19

solong [7]

Answer:

Unitary cost= $46.4 per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $9.60 per unit

Direct labor $19.60 per unit

Overhead costs for the year:

Variable overhead $9.60 per unit

Fixed overhead $121,600

Units produced 16,000 units

Under absorption costing, the fixed overhead is allocated to the cost of the product. Therefore, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead.

Unitary fixed overhead= 121,600/16,000= $7.6

Now, we can calculate the unitary cost of production:

Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + total overhead

Unitary cost= 9.6 + 19.6 + 9.6 + 7.6= $46.4 per unit

Alles Company uses a job costing system that applies factory overhead on the basis of direct labor dollars. No job was in proces

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(a)

For Job G15:

Direct labor = $20,000

Overhead applied = 16,000

Overhead rate = $\frac{16,000}{20,000}\times 100$

= 0.8 × 100

= 80%

Overhead applied = Direct labor × 80%

= $20,000 × 80%

= $16,000

Overhead is applied on direct labor. Hence, rate is 80%.

Overhead for Job B10 = Direct labor × 80%

= $54,000 × 80%

= $43,200

Therefore,

Total overhead applied = $43,200 + 45,750 + 16,000

= $104,950

(b) Hence,

Overapplied overhead for February:

= Total overhead applied - Actual Overhead

= $104,950 - $68,500

= $36,450

liraira [26]

Answer:

No answer is correct.

If we use the values set by the IRS for 2019, the total travel costs deduction = $290.58.

If we use the 2018 value, the total travel costs deduction = $273.05

Explanation:

The new mileage reduction set by the IRS for 2019 is 58 cents (up from 54.5 cents) per mile. Since Jermaine had to travel 3 times during the year and drove for 167 miles, his total deduction should be:

total travel costs deduction = 3 x 167 x $0.58 = $290.58

If we use the 2018 deduction rates, Jermaine's total travel deduction will be:

total travel costs deduction = 3 x 167 x $0.545 = $273.05
