Answer:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $32 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

At the beginning of the current year, management estimated that $672,000 in overhead costs would be incurred and the company would produce and sell 2,000 units of the flexible model and 10,000 units of the rigid model.

The flexible model requires 3.0 hour(s) of direct labor time per unit, and the rigid model requires 1.50 hour(s).

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

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 672,000/(2000*3 + 10000*1.5)= $32 per direct labor hour

A landowner owned a large piece of property containing an inn and a bakery. She entered into a contract to sell the property to
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The most likely result at trial is that the landowner's claim for specific performance will be successful, and she will be awarded the entire price of contract.

Explanation:

When there isn't a statute, the buyer bears the risk of loss when property subject to a contract for sale is destroyed without fault of any party prior to the date specified for closing. Unless the contract specifies otherwise, the buyer must pay the contract price even if the property is damaged by fire.

The inn was burned down in this case after the landowner and the buyer signed a contract for the sale of the property, but before the closing date. The contract appears to be silent on the risk of loss, and no appropriate statute exists. As a result of the common law rule, the buyer bears the risk of loss. Therefore, the landowner has the right to particular execution of the contract, which implies that the entire stipulated contract price must be paid by the buyer.

Regardless of the property's drop in worth owing to the fire, the $1 million contract price must be paid by the buyer because he bears the risk of loss.

Therefore, the most likely result at trial is that the landowner's claim for specific performance will be successful, and she will be awarded the entire price of contract.

High-Low Method
frozen [14]

Answer:

Requirement 1

<em>High Point = March</em>

<em>Low Point = January</em>

Requirement 2

<em>Variable rate for tanning $0.41 per tanning appointment </em>

<em>Fixed cost per month $1,457</em>

Requirement 3

<em>Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level</em>

Requirement 4

<em>Total predicted cost for September $ 2,482</em>

<em>Total fixed cost for September $1,457</em>

<em>Total predicted variable cost for September $1,025</em>

Explanation:

Requirement 1

High Point = March

Low Point = January

Requirement 2

<em>Variable Cost = Difference in Overhead Cost (High - Low)/ Difference in Activity (High - Low)</em>

                       = $2,810 - $1,744 / 3,300 - 700

                       = $1,066/ 2,600

                       = $0.41

<em>Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.</em>

Lets Select, January 700 $1,744

Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.

                                       =  $1,744 - $0.41 × 700

                                       =  $1,457

Requirement 3

Cost formula for tanning services

<em>Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost</em>

thus,

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

Requirement 4

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

                 =  $1,457 + $0.41 × 2,500

                 = $ 2,482
