Answer:

1.267 = Overhead Rate

Explanation:

<em>As general approach,</em> the manufacturing rate, along with any rate is done by dividing the cost by a cost driver.

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

In this case teh cost is the manufacturing overhead and the cost driver the direct materials cost:

\frac{1,270,000}{1,010,000}= $Overhead Rate

<em>Using Direct Materials cost, the rate would be:</em>

1.257425743= $Overhead Rate

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": to ask if the industry's growth and profit prospects are strongly attractive to potential entry candidates.

Explanation:

The worldwide economy has allowed firms to expand their operations benefiting them by exploring new markets and increasing their number of customers, thus, generating more revenue.

Your firm needs a computerized machine tool lathe which costs $54,000 and requires $12,400 in maintenance for each year of its 3
drek231 [11]

Answer:

$2467.49

Explanation:

As we know that MACRS 3-year class life category is: 33.33 percent, 44.44 percent, 14.82 percent, and 7.41 percent

We need to find the book value of the machine tool lathe, which is 3 years from now:

Book value = 54,000 - 54,000*33.33% - 54,000*44.44%  -  54,000*14.82 %

= $4,001.4

The tax will be based on the profit you have from selling the machine, so:

  • The profit = 12,400 - 4,001.4  = $8398.6

Therefore, our taxes are: $8398.6*0.35 = $2932.51

So, the after tax salvage value of the machine is the money you received on the sale minus the taxes you have to pay, that is:

  • After tax- Salvage Value = $5,400 - $2932.51= $2467.49

Hope it will find you well.
