Answer:

We will be considering design A.

Explanation:

By applying B/C analysis following interpretation take place:

For Design A:

Investment (I) = USD 400,000

Cost (C) = USD 50,000 (P/A) which is (8%,15)

we will get USD 427,974

For Design B:

Investment (I)= USD 300,000

Cost (C) = USD 80,000 (P/A) which is (8%,15)

we will get USD 684,758

  • We will select the most effective alternative based on their least cost which is (I+C) or their modified benefit to cost ratio. Using the modified B/C ratio which is:

B/C modified:

= (Cost of A- Cost of B) ) / (Investment of A - Investment of B)  

= (427,974 - 684,758))/(400,000-300,000)

= 2.56 Answer

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$20,880

Explanation:

Under the direct method we ignore services that are provided to the other service departments.

In order to allocate the building operation costs to Operating department A, we need to determine what percentage of the building space taken up by Operating departments is used by Operation Department A.

There is a total of 50000 square feet and Operating Department A occupies 60%(30000/50000 of that.

So Operating Department A will get 60% of the building costs

  i.e., 60% × 34800 = 20,880
