Deadweight losses occur when the quantity of an output produced is: ... Less than or greater than the competitive equilibrium quantity. Such that the marginal benefit of the output is just equal to the marginal cost.
Answer:
$6,900
Explanation:
When you use the incremental cost allocation method, you must rank cost activities and how they will be allocated. In this case, department 2 is the primary user, and therefore, rental costs must be allocated first to them. Rental costs will be allocated at a $25/hour rate.
Since department 1 is the next user, 100 hours will be allocated using the same rate as department 2, but the next 200 hours will be allocated at the lower $22/hour rate. Total rental cost allocation to department 1 = (100 x $25) + (200 x $22) = $2,500 + $4,400 = $6,900
