Julio produces two types of calculator, standard and deluxe. The company is currently using a traditional costing system with ma

Julli [10]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

a)

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 313,020 / 58,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5.4 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Standard= 5.4*26,500= $143,100

Deluxe= 5.4*31,500= $170,100

b)

First, we need to calculate the allocation rates:

Material handling= 183,750 / 1,550= $118.55 per material moves

Setup= 179,180 / 660= $271.48 per setup

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Standard= 118.55*625 + 271.48*85= $97,169.55

Deluxe= 118.55*925 + 271.48*575= $265,759.75

Louise McIntyre's monthly gross income is $2,000. Her employer withholds $400 in federal, state, and local income taxes and $160

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a) 27.2%

b) No

Explanation:

Given:

Monthly gross income = $2,000

Federal, state, and local income taxes = $400

Social Security taxes per month = $160

IRA per month = $80

Monthly credit payments for Visa, = $35

Monthly credit payments for MasterCard, = $30

Monthly credit payments for Discover cards = $20

Automobile loan payment = $285

Now,

Net income of Louise = Gross income - Total Taxes - IRA

= $2,000 - ( $400 + $160 ) - $80

= $1,360

Total debt payments = Credit card payments + Automobile loan payment

= ( $35 + $30 + $20 ) + $285

= $370

Therefore,

Debt payments-to-income ratio = $\frac{\textup{Debt payments}}{\textup{Net income
}}$

= $\frac{\textup{370}}{\textup{1,360}}$

= 0.272

or

= 0.272 × 100% = 27.2%

(b) An individual should not spend more than 20% of their net income as debt to be within the means.

Since, the debt payments-to-income ratio exceeds 20 percent of her net income.

Hence, Louise is not living within her means

Jane Dough Pizza's manager is now getting detailed costs for offering delivery service and needs to properly categorize them as

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

variable costs.

fixed cost

variable costs.

fixed cost

Explanation:

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g, rent, mortgage payments

If production is zero or if production is a million, Mortgage payments do not change - it remains the same no matter the level of output.

Hourly wage costs and payments for production inputs are variable costs

Variable costs are costs that vary with production

If a producer decides not to produce any output, there would be no need to hire labour and thus no need to pay hourly wages.

If no pizzas are delivered, there would be no need for boxes. thus boxes of pizza is a variable cost

the salary of the programmer is not dependent on the level of output. thus it is a fixed cost

Question 16 of 25

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: B. Foreign cars become more expensive.

Explanation: The tariff slapped on imported goods such as cars and other foreign commodities will raise the overall cost of the product on the side of the seller and definitely the final selling price of such product to the consumers. This is used to raise revenue for the government and also to encourage the manufacture, adoption and support for locally manufactured products. Locally manufactured substitute will tend to be cheaper and the additional tariff may put importers and consumers off, and hence settle for cheaper locally made alternative.
