Answer:

1. Overheads rate per activity

Setup = $4,100 per setup

Machining = $120 per machine hour

Engineering = $60 per engineering hour

Packing = $0.30 per packing order

2. Cost per unit

Deluxe = $162.60

Normal = $53.675

Explanation:

As for the provided information:

We have,

Different activities as follows:

Setups = $2,050,000

Total setups = 300 + 200 = 500

Rate = $2,050,000/500 = $4,100 per setup

Machining = $48,000,000

Total machine hours = 100,000 + 300,000 = 400,000

Machine hour rate = $48,000,000/400,000 = $120 per machine hour

Engineering = $9,000,000

Total engineering hours = 50,000 + 100,000 = 150,000

Rate per hour = $9,000,000/150,000 = $60 per hour

Packing = $150,000

Packing orders = 100,000 + 400,000 = 500,000

Rate per hour = $150,000/500,000 = $0.30 per order

2. Calculating per product cost

Particulars              Deluxe                 Normal

Setup Cost

In 3:2 ratio            $1,230,000              $820,000

Machining Cost

In 1:3 ratio             $12,000,000          $36,000,000

Engineering cost

In 1:2 ratio            $3,000,000               $6,000,000

Packing Cost

In 1:4 Ratio             $30,000                  $120,000

Therefore total cost for each printer

                              $16,260,000           $42,940,000

Number of units         100,000              800,000

<u>Cost per unit               $162.60             $53.675</u>

lesya692 [45]

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You plan on saving for a large home improvement project using the following cash flows: $50,000 today, $25,000 next year, and $10,000 the following year. The account earns a 10% return per year.

We need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 50,000*1.10^2= 60,500

FV= 25,000*1.1= 27,500

FV= 10,000

Total= $98,000
