Answer:
$432,000 Setting up equipment ⇒ based on setup hours
$1,440,000 Other overhead ⇒ based on oven hours
product units produced setup hours oven hours
Fudge 8,000 6,400 1,600
Cookies 445,000 1,600 8,000
1) Activity rate:
- a) setup hours = total setup costs / total setup hours = $432,000 / 8,000 hours = $54 per setup hour
- b) oven hours = total other overhead costs / total oven hours = $1,440,000 / 9,600 hours = $150 per oven hour
2) total overhead assigned to fudge = (6,400 setup hours x $54 per setup hour) + (1,600 oven hours x $150 per oven hour) = $345,600 + $240,000 = $585,600
Answer:
A residential property is greatly diminished in value because of the constant noise of jets taking off from a recently expanded municipal airport. In order to be compensated for this loss, the owner could:
B.bring a suit alleging inverse condemnation
Explanation:
A law suit is a claim or legal problem taken to a court of law by an individual or organization rather than the authorities for a legal decision to be made. In the case above, the residential property diminished in value after constant noise of jets taking off from a recently expanded municipal airport. The loss in value is as a result of the recently expanded municipal airport and the property owner wants to be compensated for this loss.
In law, there are different terminologies and phrases that have specific meaning, some of them are as follows;
1. Inverse condemnation
Inverse condemnation is a case where a government entity takes private property or influences the value of that private property in one way or another then fails to compensate. In our case, this law suit can apply since the municipal airport is under the jurisdiction of the government and there action of expanding the airport caused a decline in value of neighboring residential property thus they should compensate the owner for this loss. The owner can bring a suit alleging inverse compensation.
Answer:
c) $110,000
Explanation:
The computation of the borrowing amount is shown below:
= Value of home × given percentage - current mortgage amount
= $200,000 × 80% - $50,000
= $160,000 - $50,000
= $110,000
For computing the accurate value, we have to deduct the current mortgage amount from the net value of home.
Since only 80% is related to the home value so we take only 80% and rest 20% would be ignored.
