Answer:

Increase in operating income by $5,000

Explanation:

Firstly, we shall compute the additional cost of this order,

Variable Cost = Direct material + Direct Labor + Variable factory overhead

= $25 + $20 + $15 = $60

Note: Fixed cost will not form part of this decision, as the company has additional capacity lying idle, thus no additional fixed cost will be incurred, and the fixed cost allocated i.e. $12 per unit is not relevant, as is just allocation and not incurred, it is a kind of sunk cost allocated.

Relevant cost = $60 per unit

Selling price per unit = $70 per unit

Contribution to profit = $70 - $60 = $10 per unit

Total increase in operating income = $10 \times 500 = $5,000

Thus operating income will increase by this amount.

Increase in operating income by $5,000

a $104,000 selling price with $24,000 down at 6.5% for 25 years results in a monthly payment of: multiple choice $545.61 $554.71
stellarik [79]

The monthly payments, given the selling price, the down payment, and the rate is, D. $540.17

<h3>How to find the monthly payment?</h3>

First, find the loan amount:

= Selling price - down payment

= 104, 000 - 24, 000

= $80, 000

The monthly payment is an annuity because it is constant. To find this annuity, find the monthly periodic rate and the number of monthly periods:

Monthly rate :

= 6.5% / 12

= 6.5%/12

The number of periods is:

= 25 x 12

= 300 months

Then put this into an annuity calculator to find the monthly payment to be:

= Loan amount / Annuity factor

= 80, 000 / 148.1

= $540.17

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Allocated overhead= $216,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $225,000

Estimated machine-hours= 25,000

At standard, each unit of finished product requires 3 machine-hours. Units of product completed 8,000 units

<u>To allocate overhead, we need to use the standard number of machine-hours that would take to produce 8,000 units.</u>

First, we need to determine the estimated overhead rate:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 225,000/25,000= &9 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated overhead= 9*(8,000*3)= $216,000
