<u></u>

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

<u>Department D:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,197,000 / 1,496,250

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $0.8 per direct labor dollar

<u>Department E:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,500,000 / 125,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $12 per direct labor hour

<u>Department K:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 720,000 / 120,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $6 per machine hour

Anna [14]

Answer:

b. Sales promotion

Explanation:

Sale promotions are activities that a company engages in to persuade a potential customer to buy its products. Sale promotions  are short-term tactics to boost sales.  Although a business may get long-term customers through sales promotions, there are designed to entice new customers in the short-run.

Sales promotions encourage customers to switch brands or try out a different product. They are ideal when introducing new products in the market. Howerver, they are costly, and sometimes have a short term effect on sales.

This case uses a free sample technique ( free dog biscuits) as the promotion method. Other ways of conducting sales promotions include discount vouchers, free money coupons, and competitions.

Discuss how either good or poor quality affects you personally as a customer. Give specific examples and describe an experience
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Quality is the perhaps the most desired thing in a good or service, however, sometimes, as customers, we have to compromise on quality for a cheaper price.

Personally, I look for quality when I buy a laptop. I have had four laptos in my life. Two of those laptops were HP, and the two other were Lenovo.

I had a good experience with my first HP laptop, so I bought another one years later. That second HP had many technical issues only a few months after the purchase, and a year later I ended up buyina new Lenovo laptop.

That first Lenovo lasted for over 4 years until I replaced it for a new one.

In this case, the lack of quality I have personally experienced with HP has made me ditch the brand altogether.

= 15.25% × 12  months

= 183.00%

The effective annual rate is

= (1 + 15.25% ÷ 12)^12 - 1

= 449.15%
