Explanation:
Indirect costs are costs that are not directly attributable objectively to a good, project, facility or service. Indirect costs are either fixed or variable. Fixed indirect costs are costs that do not change as the units/volumes of production change, while variable indirect costs are costs that change with change in production units. Indirect cost can also be classified as either recurring or fixed. Recurring indirect costs are those that are repeated in nature, example is salaries of laborers, while fixed indirect can be cost of transportation. In this example, executive salaries, utilities and insurance are not directly attributable to a specific project at hand; the executives do not partake in the project hands-on, insurance and utilities such as electricity rent are not project-specific and it is financially infeasible to do so.
On the other hand, direct costs are costs that are directly attributable to the object, and it is financially feasible to do so, hence travel cost, labor, consultant and subcontractors costs, and material costs are all directly linked to the project (object).
Applied overhead goes on the credit side of the Manufacturing overhead of $120,700 was applied to production using the company's predetermined overhead rate
Answer:
A.) Firm B must have a higher ROE than first A.
Explanation:
Debt ratio is defined as percentage of a company's assets that is made up of debt and so it is calculated as a ratio of debt to assets of a company.
Interest expense is the amount that is paid to service a loan.
This implies that company B has higher loan portfolio than Company A.
Considering the accounting formula
Equity= Asset- Debt
So an increase in debt will result in a decrease in equity.
Return on equity= Net income/Equity
It follows that as debt increases and equity reduces, the ROE will increase since a shrink in the ROE denominator (Equity) will lead to an increase in the ratio.

The answer is D. All of the above
Explanation:
The Capital structure of most companies comprise equity, debt and/or preference shares. All these that made up capital structure has cost or let's say return. We have cost of capital, cost of debt, cost of preference shares.
Therefore, weighted average cost of capital is average of the cost of each financing component(cost of capital, cost of debt and cost of preference shares), weighted by the proportion of each component
All the options relates to the weighted average cost of capital(WACC).
D. There is a maximum yearly contribution limit
