Answer:
1. Overhead incurred during the year;
= Depreciation on manufacturing plant and equipment + Property taxes on plant + Plant Janitors wages
= 485,000 + 19,000 + 9,500
= $513,500
2. The under or over allocation depends on how much manufacturing overhead was allocated to jobs for the year.
= Actual machine hours * Overhead rate
Overhead rate = Manufacturing overhead cost / Allocated Machine hours
= 570,000 / 71,250
= $8
Allocated Manufacturing Overhead = 57,000 * 8
= $456,000
The allocated manufacturing overhead is more than the actual overhead. This means that it is Underallocated and the company did not budget enough for the overheads.
Underallocation = 513,500 - 456,000
= $57,500
Answer:
B. shifts rightward, and the point at which the PPF touches the good-X axis has to be something more than 40 units of good X and the point at which the PPF touches the good-Y axis has to be something more than 60 units
Explanation:
PPF is the graphical representation of two goods combinations which an economy can produce given resources & technology.
It is downward sloping because of two goods inverse relation given same resources & technology.
The points at which PPF touches both axis represents maximum amount of that axis good which can be produced by given resources & technology , Points on PPF reflect full efficient utilisation of resources. Points inside PPF reflect underutilisation of resources. Points outside PPF reflect unattainable combinations outside economy's productive capacity, given resources & technology unless either of them grow.
Resource increase usable for production of both goods: shifts the PPF outwards/ rightwards & the maximum potential production of both goods increases. PPF touching axis points increases from pervious at each axis - more than 40 at good X axis, more than 60 at Y axis.
Operational Planning
Writing employee schedules and a list of things to do for the chef and other kitchen staff are the part of operational planning. Operational planning is the procedure of preparation of strategic goals of an organization. The operation plan gives the strategies of resource allocation to achieve goals. Therefore, writing the employee schedules and the things kitchen staff should be a part of operational planning.
