Answer:

The monthly withdrawal is $701.10  

Explanation:

The monthly withdrawal can be computed with PMT formula using excel spreadsheet.

The formula is PMT(rate,nper,-pv)

The fv and type are both taken as zero.

However, the rate of 5.5 % given in the question is a yearly rate,but the requirement of the question is monthly withdrawal, hence the rate is divided by 12 months to reflect a monthly rate i.e 5.5%/12

Besides, the nper should  also to be adapted to show that the withdrawal is to be made every month for 18 years, hence nper is 12*18

The computation of the pmt based on the above highlighted points is found in the attached.

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

we will distribute the expected cost of overhead  ovwer the cost driver. In this case, machine hours:

255,000 / 100,000 = 2.55

Then we multiply thew rate by the amount of actual hours:

105,000 x 2.55 = 267,760

We compare with the appleid overhead:

267,760 - 270,000 = -2,250

= 405000 × 115%

= 405000 × 1.15

= $465750

c. If the firm chooses total hours worked as the cost driver, the indirect costs be allocated to the two units as:

Government = 400,000

Corporate unit = 800,000
