Answer:

$12.40

Explanation:

Activity Estimated Indirect Allocation Base Estimated Q. of

Activity Costs Allocation Base

Materials handling $7,700 Number of parts 7,350 parts

Assembling $10,500 Number of parts 7,350 parts

Packaging $2,410 Number of units 1,470 bookshelves

The direct materials cost per bookshelf is $39. What is the cost of materials handling and assembling per bookshelf?

materials handling cost per part = $7,700 / 7,350 parts = $1.05

assembling cost per part = $10,500 / 7,350 parts = $1.43

total cost per part = $2.48

cost per bookshelf = 5 x $2.48 = $12.40

You have $12,500 you want to invest for the next 30 years. You are offered an investment plan that will pay you 7 percent per ye

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Balance after 30 years = $151,018.50

Explanation:

In order to calculate this, we will calculate the future value on an amount invested, gaining interest over the years of investment, and this is given by:

$FV = PV (1 + r)^{t}$

where:

FV = future value

PV = present value

r = interest rate

t = time in years.

Hence the future value is calculated as follows:

1. For the first 10 years at 7% interest:

7% interest = 7/100 = 0.07

$FV = 12,500 (1 + 0.07)^{10}$

$FV = 12,500 (1.07)^{10}\\FV = 12,500 * 1.967 = 24,589.392$

2. For the last 20 years at 9.5%(0.095) interest:

Note that for the remaining 20 years, the present value (PV) used = 24,589.392, as ending balance after the first 10 years

$FV = 24,589.392 (1 + 0.095)^{20}$

$FV = 24,589.392 (1.095)^{20}\\FV= 24,589.392 * 6.1416\\FV = 151,018.496$

Total Future value earned = $151,018.50
