Which of the following costs could contain both variable and a fixed cost element with respect to the total output of the compan

astraxan [27]

Answer:

b. manufacturing overhead costs.

Explanation:

Manufacturing overhead cost refers to all costs associated with production apart from direct labor or direct materials. They are the indirect costs incurred during the manufacturing process. Manufacturing overhead costs are the production costs that can not be traced directly to the produced items.

Examples of manufacturing overhead costs include depreciation, repairs and maintenance, insurance, and heating costs. Some aspects of the costs, such as depreciation, insurance, rents for the manufacturing space, are fixed costs. They do not vary with production. Other elements of manufacturing costs, such as power, repairs, and utilities, are variable costs.

A market research company employs a large number of typists to enter data into a computer database. The time it takes for potent

monitta

Answer:

4.75% of the candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system.

Explanation:

The relevant information to solve the problem is:

1. The time it takes to learn follows a Normal distribution

2. The mean is 90 minutes

3. The standard deviation is 18 minutes

4. The question is What proportion of candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system?

Then, you shall calculate the Z-score and use a standard distribution table to look up the Z-score and the corresponding probability.

Repeating myself from a recent answer, "there are two types of standard distribution tables: tables that show values that represent the AREA to the LEFT of the Z-score, and tables that show values that represent the AREA to the RIGHT of the Z-score".

1. First, calculate the Z-score:

$Z-score=\frac{x-mean}{standard\text{ }deviation}$

$x=2hours=120min$

$Z-score=\frac{120-90}{18}\approx 1.67$

2. Use the table that represents the area to the right of the mean to find the ratio of typists that have a Z-score greater than 1.67.

$Probability=0.0475=4.75\%$

Therefore, 4.75% of the candidates takes more than two hours to learn the computer system.

MissTica

Answer:

capitalize the new cost as an asset to be amortized over future periods expected to benefit

Explanation:

A capitalized cost is a cost which is added to the cost basis of a fixed asset on a company's balance sheet. This Capitalized costs are sustained from the purchase or construction of fixed assets. Example of such costs are costs of materials, sales taxes, labor, transportation, and interest incurred to finance the construction of the asset.

This is usually done for items that would be used over a long period of time, therefore the item is capitalized and amortized or depreciated over its future periods.
