Answer:
Standard Overhead rate is $1.25 per Direct labor hours
Explanation:
Total variable cost (2000 unit * $2.50) = $5,000
Total fixed cost = <u>$5,000</u>
Estimated Overhead cost = <u>$10,000</u>
<u />
Estimated Direct labor hour = 2000 unit * 4 hours = 8,000 hours
Standard Overhead rate = Estimated overhead cost / Estimated Direct labor hour
Standard Overhead rate = $10,000 / 8,000 hours
Standard Overhead rate = $1.25 per Direct labor hours
Answer:
the present value of the annuity = $4,523,638
Explanation:
this is an ordinary annuity:
annual payment = $9,420,713 / 20 = $471,035.65
number of periods = 19 periods
interest rate = 8%
therefore, the present value annuity factor = 9.6036
the present value of the annuity = $471,035.65 x 9.6036 = $4,523,637.97 ≈ $4,523,638
Answer:
The map of the current process is found in the attached
The minimum cycle time is 1 min 40 seconds
The longest cycle time is 2 min 35 seconds
The new minimum cycle is 1 min 15 seconds
The new longest cycle time is 2 mins
The potential problem that could surface from splitting the process is that once the customer has finished paying the customer has to wait for about 30 to 55 seconds before the second attendant finishes with packaging,hence ,a queue would likely be formed awaiting the second attendant.
The problem could be solved by ensuring the taking money and packaging takes the same time.
Explanation:
Minimum cycle time=20+55+25=100 seconds=1 minute 40 seconds
The longest cycle time=30+90+35=155 seconds=2 min 35 seconds
The new minimum cycle time=20+55=75 seconds=1 min 15 seconds
Taking customer's money also happened in the first 35 seconds of the 55 seconds above.
The new longest cycle time=30+90=120 seconds=2 mins
Answer:
The net realizable value of the accounts receivable immediately after the writing-off the uncollectible is $26,900
Explanation:
The formula to compute the net realizable value of accounts receivable is:
Net realizable value = Balance of accounts receivable - Balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
= $30,600 - $3,700
= $26,900
The amount of uncollectible which is written off will not be deducted from the balance of accounts receivable as this amount is already included in Allowance for doubtful account.
