Answer:

See the explanation section

Explanation:

Organizations calculate various costs with the help of the weighted average cost of capital. It is a significant cost measurement system through which organizations can calculate the cost of debt after tax, cost of new equities, cost of existing equities, and cost of preferred shares. WACC can be a benchmark for the organization. A firm needs to know those costs because it can make sure that whether those projects are running smoothly to continue or running worse to reject.

Another significant cost measurement method is the net present value. With the help of NPV, a business can make sure about a project to accept it or reject it.

Liula [17]

Incomplete question. However, I answered based on the information.

Explanation:

We can determine which Credit card is best in terms of its interest rate by comparing both rates monthly:

Credit card A

APR for the First 3 months:

4.1% / 360 days = 0.009% x 30 = 0.27% per month for the first 3 months.

APR for Next 9 months:

15.7% / 360 days = 0.04361% x 30 = 1.308% per month for the next 9 months.

Credit card B:

APR the First 3 months

4.2% / 360 days = 0.011% x 30 = 0.33% per month for the first 3 months

Next 9 months:

15.5% / 360 = 0.04305% x 30 = 1.291% per month for the next 9 months

Hence, we can conclude,

For the first 3 months, Credit Card A is best because it offers lower interest charges.

For the next 9 months, Credit Card B is best because it offers lower interest charges.

Explanation:

For determining the over applied or under applied, first, we have to compute the predetermined rate based on the direct material cost which is

= $700,000 ÷ $1,000,000

= $0.70

Now the applied overhead is

= $0.70 × $1,200,000
