Explanation:

B7= 35,000/150,000= 0.23

K6= 75,000/150,000= 0.5

X9= 40,000/150,000= 0.27

Allocated cost:

B7= 0.23*600,000= 138,000

K6= 0.50*600,000= 300,000

X9= 0.27*600,000= 162,000

A new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Additional time costs $150 per hour. What are the average a

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

(a) 0; 0

(b) $150 per hour; $16.67 per hour

Explanation:

(a) Number of hours = 125

Marginal cost = 0 (since service is cost less upto 200 hours)

Average cost = 0

(b) Number of hours = 225

Marginal cost = $150 per hour

Total cost = $150 × (225 - 200)

= $150 × 25

= $3,750

Average cost = Total cost ÷ Number of hours

= $3,750 ÷ 225

= $16.67 per hour

Marginal cost = $150 per hour

Total cost = $150 × (325 - 200)

= $150 × 125

= $18,750

Average cost = Total cost ÷ Number of hours

= $18,750 ÷ 325

= $53.57 per hour
