Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Total Overhead Cost = $477,000

Number of Units of Product XY = 72,000

Number of Units of Product M = 108,000

Total overhead allocated to Product XY using the current system:

= (Total Overhead Cost ÷ Number of units produced in total) × Number of Units of Product XY

= ($477,000 ÷ 180,000) × 72,000

= $2.65 × 72,000

= $190,800

For the purchase​ option:

Buying price= ​$22 per unit.

For the make​ option:

Weekly rental payment of ​$30,800

The firm also has to hire five operators to help make product A. Each operator works eight hours per​ day, five days per week at the rate of ​$14 per hour.

The material cost for the make option is ​$15 per unit of product A.

A) We need to find the number of units that makes the unitary fixed costs= $7

Weekly rental= 30800

Direct labor= ($14*8 hours*5workes)*5 days= 2800

Total fixed costs= $33,600

Unitary fixed costs= total fixed costs/ Q

7=33600/Q

Q= 4800 units

B) Now Q= 6600

Buy= 6600*22= $145,200

Make= 6600*15 + 33600= $132,600

Depreciation expense for 2022 =$3, 300

Explanation:

Using  Straight line depreciation

We have that our Annual depreciation= Purchase price - salvage value / useful life.

$22,500 - $2,700 / 6

=19,800/6

$3, 300

Depreciation expense for 2021  ( from October to December )

$3,300 x 3/ 12= $9,900/12

Your younger sister, Linda, will start college in five years. She has just informed your parents that she wants to go to Hampton
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The answer $6,964.4726324 per year  

Explanation: The following elements are to be considered in this case:

- The total amount required for Linda's education is $132,000 ($33,000*4)

-Parents had already started investing $5,300 per year for the past five years. This is a stream of even cash flows, at an interest rate. Considering we are at the point before our parents decided to invest the $5,300 and we want to determine the future value of this fixed payments, we will consider the formula below:

Future Value FV = Cash flow per period C * ([1 + i]^n - 1 )/i where  i is the interest rate and n the number of times or periods

FV= $5,300 * ([1 + 0.11]^5 - 1 )/0.11

FV= $5,300 * 6.22780141

FV= $33,007.347473

Considering they will continue to save $5,300 for five more years, we can adjust the above formula and obtain the future value of the fixed payment of $5,300 over a period of 10 years

FV= $5,300 * ([1 + 0.11]^10 - 1 )/0.11

FV= $5,300 * 16.722008965

FV= $88,626.647515

This implies our parents will have the above amount when Linda is to start college and will require an additional $43,373.35248 ($132,000 - $88,626.647515 ) to have the entire fees at hand.

Now, we have to determine how much should be saved every year for the next five years (when Linda starts school) in order to obtain the amount left to complete Linda's fees.

Considering the formula above, it should be noted that we alraedy know the future value, the interest and the number of years involved. So to get the cash flow or amount to be saved per period,

- Cash Flow per period C = Future value FV/  ([1 + i]^n - 1 )/i

 C = $43,373.35248 /  ([1 + 0.11]^5 - 1 )/0.11

 C = $43.373.35248 / 6.22780141

 C = $6,964.4726324

Thus, in addition to the $5,300 currently being saved by our parents, they will have to save an additional $6,964.4726324 per year so as to obtain the total amount for Linda fees of $132,000 which will be divided into $33,000 per year.
