Answer:

$160 overapplied

Explanation:

Icy Mocha company estimates it's factory overhead costs to be $35,000 and machine hours to be 5,000 for a period of one year.

The actual number of hours worked on job 333 and 334 equals a total of 4,980

The actual factory overhead costs are $34,700

The first step is to calculate the predetermined overhead rate

= Overhead costs/machine hours

= $35,000/5,000

= $7

The amount of either over or underapplied factory costs can be calculated as follows

= predetermined overhead rate×actual number of hours worked

= $7×4,980

= $34,860

The amount is then subtracted from the actual overhead costs

= $34,700-$34860

= -$160

= $160 overapplied

Hence the amount of overapplied factory overhead is $160

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Job 334 total cost:    $  8,400

Unit cost: 8,400 / 200 = $  42

Explanation:

Total cost: Material + Labor + Overhead

Material: 5,000

Labor:     2,400

<u></u>

<u>Overhead:</u>

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

We distribute the expected cost over the expected base:

expected cost: 100,000

cost driver: 40,000 labor hours

cost per hour: 100,000 / 40,000 = <u>2.5 predetermined overhead</u>

Now we multiply this rate by the hours of the job to know Applied Overhead:

job labor hours x overhead rate:

Job #334 had 2,400 labor cost / $6 rate per hour = 400 hours

400 x 2.5 = 1,000

Total cost: 5,000 + 2,400 + 1,000 = 8,400

VikaD [51]
Opportunity cost of going to college is actually the salary forgone. 
With a yearly salary of $15,000 and a rent of $12000 yearly (parents would not let you live at home), we are left with $15000 - $12000 = $3000 per year 
For 4 years, the opportunity cost will be 4 x $3000 = $12000

dsp73

Answer:

C. Shut down the presses printing my book

Explanation:

Since the average variable cost of producing the book is above the demand curve, the best course of action is to shut down the printing (production) of more books. The author would lose less money by shutting down operations rather than continuing production at a variable cost higher than the demand he's receiving for the books.

In economics, when profit is less than the average variable cost, firms are advised to stop production in the short run and incur economic loss on fixed inputs. This is because with continued operations, total revenue would not only be lower than total cost, but rather, would also be less than total variable cost.
