Answer:

B) = $38.44

Explanation:

<em>Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers. Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.</em>

Activity rate is calculated as:

<em>Activity cost for the period / Total cost drivers for the period</em>

<u><em>Activity rate for supporting customers:</em></u>

<em>The appropriate cost driver to allocate supporting customer activity is the number of customers as given.  This is so because it is most likely that the number of customers served will be a major factor that influences the supporting customers activity costs. </em>

<u><em>Activity rate for supporting customers </em></u>

= Supporting customers overhead/total number of customers

= $34,600/(600+300)

= $38.44

Hi guys, i need urgently some help with this question
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Accounting rate of return, also known as the Average rate of return, or ARR is a financial ratio used in capital budgeting. The ratio does not take into account the concept of time value of money. ARR calculates the return, generated from net income of the proposed capital investment. The ARR is a percentage return. Say, if ARR = 7%, then it means that the project is expected to earn seven cents out of each dollar invested (yearly). If the ARR is equal to or greater than the required rate of return, the project is acceptable. If it is less than the desired rate, it should be rejected. When comparing investments, the higher the ARR, the more attractive the investment. More than half of large firms calculate ARR when appraising projects.

Fixed Overhead Spending and Volume Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $20,000  Favorable (F).

Explanation:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = $305,000 -  $300,000

                                                              = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Fixed Overheads at Actual Production  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = ($5.00 × 64,000) - $300,000

                                                              = $320,000 - $300,000

                                                              = $20,000  Favorable (F)

Two workers have the job of placing plastic labels on packages before the packages are shipped out. The first worker can place 1
monitta

Answer:

The correct answer is: The second worker.

Explanation:

Productivity is an economic term describing the relationship between outputs as compared to inputs needed to produce those outputs. It is a measure of efficiency. Typically inputs are raw materials, labor, and capital assets. Outputs are generally expressed as either revenue or total units of finished goods.

In the example, a form to measure each worker's productivity is comparing how many plastic labels they can place per hour. Thus:

  • Worker 1: <em>1000 per 1/2 hour (30 minutes) </em>
  • Worker 1: <em>2000 per 1 hour  </em>

  • Worker 2: <em>850 per 1/3 hour (20 minutes)</em>
  • Worker 2: <em>2550 per 1 hour </em>

Then, the second worker is more productive.
