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

19. An investor has purchased a property that is giving him a 10% rate of return. Potential gross rents total $10,000.00 a month
gogolik [260]

Answer:

the market value of the property is $628,300

Explanation:

The computation of the market value of the property is shown below;

Gross rent $10,000 × 12= $120,000

Now

= $120,000 ×  .92 (occupancy rate)

= $110,400

After that

= $110,400 - $47,570

= $62,830

And ,finally the market value of the property is

= $62,830 ÷ 0.10  

= $628,300

hence, the market value of the property is $628,300
