<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
  Breakeven point = Fixed cost divide by Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Sales minus Variable cost.
Fixed cost
Particular           Amount
Salaries                  $5000
Utilities                   $1100
Depreciation  	$1200
Maintenance  	$780
Total Fixed cost = $8,080.
Variable cost =Maid services plus Other cost = $7 plus $13 = $20
Contribution = $40 minus $20 = $20.
Breakeven point in number = $8080 divide 20 = 404 rented rooms per month.
Breakeven point in $ = Breakeven point rented rooms × rent cost.
=> 404 rooms multiply $40 = $16,160.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
3. Rental costs of $5,000 per month plus $.30 per machine hour of use
Explanation:
Mixed cost is the one which has both the factors, variable and fixed.
Sometimes, the segregation is also difficult, when the total cost is given.
In the chosen option also, there is a fixed cost involved that is monthly expense of $5,000.
Further for each hour of machine used the cost increases and is $0.30 per hour. 
That is variable as the total will depend upon the number of hours the machine is used.
All the other three are either completely fixed like salary, and depreciation, or either completely variable like electricity cost.

Decision grids are valuable tools because they help us:
- Evaluate and prioritize a list of options
- Make the best choices at the least cost
- Make wise decisions in a range of contexts
- Consider the cost and benefits of a decision
- Reduce subjectivity to help make sound conclusions
- See what we gain and lose by choosing between alternatives
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The company report on its balance sheet at December 31, 2010, as accounts receivable before the allowance for doubtful account is $590,000
Explanation:
The computation of the accounts receivable before the allowance is shown below:
= Beginning account receivable balance + bad debt expense -  uncollectible accounts receivable
= $540,000 + $90,000 - $40,000
= $590,000
The bad debt is an expense so it will be added whereas the account receivable which is not yet collected should be deducted in the computation part.
