Answer:

the amount invested in municipal bond is $8,000

the amount invested in certificated on deposits = $11,000 - $8,000

= $3,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Annual yield on municipal bond = 7% = 0.07

Annual yield on certificated of deposits = 9% = 0.09

Initial investment = $11,000

Annual income = $830

Now,

Let the amount invested in municipal bond be 'x'

Therefore,

the amount invested in certificated of deposits = $11,000 - x

Thus,

according to question

⇒ 0.07x + 0.09( $11,000 - x ) = $830

⇒ 0.07x + $990 - 0.09x = $830

⇒ -0.02x = $830 - $990

⇒ -0.02x = -$160

⇒ x = $8,000

Hence,

the amount invested in municipal bond is $8,000

the amount invested in certificated on deposits = $11,000 - $8,000

= $3,000

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

See explanations below.

Explanation:

1. Yes. Overhead should be applied to job W at year-end. Overhead is applied to every jobs whether or not they are completed at year end.

b. To calculate the amount of overhead to be applied to job W, we need to calculate first the overhead application rate based on direct labor cost through job V.

Direct labor cost. $8,000

Overhead applied $6,000

Overhead rate = [ Overhead applied / Direct labor cost ] × 100

= [6,000/8,000] × 100

= 75%

Overhead to be applied to job W

Direct labor cost $4,000

Overhead rate 75%

Overhead to be applied = $3,000

It therefore means that $3,000 should be applied to job W.

2. Because job W was not completed at the year end, it would then be included in the work in process inventory in the financial statements of Sigma Corporation at year end.
