Schwering Corporation uses activity-based costing to assign overhead costs to products. Overhead costs have already been allocat

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

1)

Order Filling, $136,040

Orders (Order Filling)

Product D7 3,040

Product U1 760

To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Order Filling= 136,040/3,800

Order Filling= $35.8 per order

2)

Overhead costs:

Machining, $81,600

Order Filling, $161,500

Activity data appear below:

MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling)

Product D7 13,200 4,000

Product U1 26,800 1,000

First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:

Machining= 81,600/40,000= $2.04 per machine hour

Order Filling= 161,500/5,000= $32.3 per order

Now, we can allocate overhead to product U1:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product U1= 2.04*26,800 + 32.3*1,000= $86,972

3)

Wall Mirrors Specialty Windows

Total expected units produced 7,700 1,450

Expected direct labor-hours per unit 14 7

The total materials handling cost for the year is expected to be $17,153.10.

Total direct labor hours, and predetermined overhead rate:

Total direct labor hours= 14*7,700 + 7*1,450= 117,950

Material Handling activity rate= 17,153.1/117,950= $0.145 per direct labor hour

Now, we allocate overhead:

Wall Mirrors= 0.15*107,800= $16,170

dedylja [7]

Answer:

D) declaring victory too soon

Explanation:

John Kotter in this theory of leadership explains the concept and importance of change. He basically believes that the company shall be currently functional.

By the term currently functional he means that the company shall be updated and working on with the current market trend. This means the company shall not be resistant to change and that the management shall take a note of it.

Further in the moving scenario there is no freezing point - the company shall constantly work on the new things which it can improve and excel.

Thus, final confirmation cannot be made soon as towards the change made.

Assume that investors can borrow and lend at risk-free rate of 5%. The optimal tangent portfolio on the efficient frontier has a

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

B. Portfolio B with E(R)=13% and STD=18%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

Reward to risk ratio = (15% - 5%) ÷ 20% = 0.5

The porfolio should be in line i.e.

= 0.05 + 0.5 × standard deviation

For portfolio A

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 25

= 17.5%

For portfolio C

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 1

= 5.5%

Portfolio B, the std is 18%

So,

= 0.05 + 0.5 × 18%

= 14%
