Answer:

The answer is a. $10,225

Explanation:

The solution involves two steps. The first step is the calculation of net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) while the second step is the calculation of free cash flow.

Step 1 - Calculation of NOPAT

Sales                                            $185,250

Operating costs                          ($140,500)

Depreciation                                ($9,250)

Operating profit                           $35,500

Tax (35%)                                      ($12,425)

NOPAT                                          $23,075

Step 2 - Calculation of free cash flow

NOPAT                                          $23,075

Depreciation                                 $9,250

Changes in working capital         ($6,850)

Capital expenditure                      ($15,250)

Free cash flow                               $10,225

Question: What is the total overhead cost for an estimated activity level of 60,000 direct labor-hours

Answer: $410,000

Explanation:

The equation resulting from this regression analysis is:

Total overhead = Estimated fixed cost + Estimated variable cost per labor hour x Labor hours

= Intercept estimate + Coefficient estimate on independent variable x 60,000 DLH

= 110000 + 5 x 60000 DLH

= 110000 + 300000

= 410000
