Answer:

Correct Answer:

The correct sequence of crossing include:

<em>First, the Analyst takes the flashlight and crosses the bridge with the Associate. This takes 2 minutes. </em>The Analyst then returns across the bridge with the flashlight taking 1 more minute (3 minutes passed so far). The Analyst gives the flashlight to the VP and the VP and MD cross together taking 10 minutes (13 minutes passed so far).

The VP gives the flashlight to the Associate, who recrosses the bridge taking 2 minutes (15 minutes passed so far). The Analyst and Associate now cross the bridge together taking 2 more minutes.<em> Now, all are across the bridge at the meeting in exactly 17 minutes.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The above is the only logical way through which all of them could be able to cross the bridge while still arriving to the meeting at/on the exact time.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Net Present Value = $59,632.78

Explanation:

<em>The net present value NPV) of a project is the present value of cash inflow less the present value of cash outflow of the project. </em>

<em>NPV = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow </em>

Present value of cash inflow:

65,000 × (1.09375)^(-1) + 98000 ×(1.09375)^(-2)+ 126,000 ×(1.09375)^(-3)+  132,000 × (1.09375)^(-4)= 326882.7792

PV of annual maintenance cost :

=1,500 × (1- 1.09375^(-4))/0.09375

=4819.84773

NPV = 26882.7792  - 4819.84773 - (255,000+12250)

= 59,632.78

aev [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: underapplied by $2,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Martinez Manufacturing applies overhead based on direct labor hours.

The company estimates that their overhead for the year will be $180,000 and that they will use 72,000 direct labor hours.

During the year, Martinez Manufacturing used 75,000 direct labor hours and actual overhead costs were $190,000

We need to calculate if the overhead was under or over applied and in what amount.

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

Predetermined overhead rate= 180000/72000= $2.5 an hour

Now, we can calculate the amount of overhead allocated:

Overhead allocated= 75000 hours*2.5= $187,500

Over/under applied= actual overhead - allocated overhead= 190,000 - 185,500= $2,500 underapplied
