Resource Room prints custom training material for corporations. The business was started January 1, 2017. The company uses a nor

mal-costing system. It has two direct-cost pools, materials and labor, and one indirect-cost pool, overhead. Overhead is charged to printing jobs on the basis of direct labor cost. The following information is available for 2017.
Budgeted direct labor costs……………$190,000
Budgeted overhead costs………………$266,000
Costs of actual material used………….$158,000
Actual direct labor costs…………………..$175,000
Actual overhead costs…………………….$247,200

There were two jobs in process on December 31, 2017: Job 11 and Job 12. Costs added to each job as of December 31 are as follows:

Direct Material Direct Labour
Job 11 $4,720 $5,700
Job 12 $5,090 $6,900

Resource Room has no finished-goods inventories because all printing jobs are transferred to cost of goods sold when completed.

Required:
a. Compute the overhead allocation rate.
b. Calculate the balance in ending work in process and cost of goods sold before any adjustments for under- or overallocated overhead.
c. Calculate under- or overallocated overhead.
d. Calculate the ending balances in work in process and cost of goods sold if the under- or overallocated overhead amount is as follows:

i. Written off to cost of goods sold
ii. Prorated using the overhead allocated in 2017 (before proration) in the ending balances of cost of goods sold and work-in-process control accounts

g. Which of the methods in requirement 4 would you choose? Explain.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

A 7.5% increase in the quantity demanded

Explanation:

If the price elasticity of demand (PED) is 0.75, that means that for every 1% change in the price of a product, the quantity demanded for the product will inversely change by 0.75%. If the price increases, the quantity demanded decreases, and vice versa.

If Sony lowers the price of its TVs by 10%, and the PED = 0.75, then the quantity demanded will increase by = 10% x 0.75 = 7.5%

What will most likely cause a lender to deny credit?
8090 [49]

Answer:

A historic credit score of 300

Explanation:

A credit score is a numeric record that expresses the reliability of a borrower to repay loans. The credit score or credit rating is determined by, among other things, credit history, income level, and the individual's income to debt ratio.

Credit scores range between 300 and 850. 300 is the lowest and the poorest score. A score of 300 indicates that the borrower has a bad history of debt repayment. They are always late on repayments,  miss on installments, or have defaulted on loans. Lenders consider such persons as high-risk borrowers and are likely to deny them credit facilities.
