The area of a patio is 5 5/8 square yards and its length is 1 1/2 yards. What is the patios width in yards?

8 0

The formula to find the area of a rectangle is
Area=length*width
( area equals length times width)

So you substitute the values in the problem into the equation above.
5 5/8=1 1/2* w

Then you can solve the equation by dividing the 5 5/8 by the 1 1/2, cancelling out 1 1/2 and leaving the w by itself on one half of the equal sign
You are left with
3 3/4 = w

The width of the patio in yards is 3 3/4.
(Just ask if you have more questions or I didn't explain something clearly)

Area = length x width
if the area is 5 5/8, and the length is 1 1/2, all you have to do to find the width is divide the area by the length.
5 5/8 / 1 1/2 = 3 3/4 yards

hope this helped!!

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Schell has a total of $39,060 in overhead.

Direct labor hours:

Standard= 400

Deluxe= 200

Machine hours:

Standard= 4,150

Deluxe= 3,000

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

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

1) Direct labor hours as allocation rate

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 39,060/600= $65.1 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate to each product line:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Standard= 65.1*400= $26,040

Deluxe= 65.1*200= $13,020

2) Machine hour as allocation rate:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 39,060/7,150= $5.46 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate to each product line:

Standard= 5.46* 4,150= $22,659

Deluxe= 5.46*3,000= $16,380

Tolton, Inc. is just shy of hitting its operating income target. The manager, K.T. Tolton, decides to purchase inferior material

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Net income increase - $4,890

Explanation:

The computation of the effect on net income is shown below:

= Number of pounds of inferior product × (standard price for the materials - inferior product price per pound)

= 3,000 pounds × ($13 - $11.37)

= 3,000 pounds × $1.63

= $4,890 increase

For determining the effect we took the difference of the prices and then multiply it with the number of pounds of the inferior product

Riggs Company purchases sails and produces sailboats. It currently produces 1,300 sailboats per year, operating at normal capaci

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The president of Riggs has missed something.

She should make the Sail instead of buying because its cheaper to manufacture than purchasing it outside.

Explanation:

Cost of Manufacturing the Sails:

Direct materials $93

Direct Labor $83

Total $173

The president of Riggs has included the $90 overhead based on $78,000 of annual fixed overhead that is allocated using normal capacity in the cost of manufacturing the sail which is incorrect.

Riggs Company is operating at 80 % of full capacity, hence utelizing the 20% excess capacity would not expand its fixed costs.

Thus said the current fixed cost are irrelevent for this decison and would be incurred whether or not Riggs Company utilizes the excess capacity

Conclusion:

The cost of making the sail is $173 which is lower than the cost of buying them at $ 258.

I would advise The president of Riggs to make the sail by utilizing the excess capacity since its cheaper than purchasing it outside.
