Answer:

Fogerty Company

1. Computation of the activity rate for each activity cost pool:

a. Machine setups = Total machine setups overhead costs/total machine setups

= $28,980/252 = $115 per machine set up

b. Special processing = Total special processing overhead costs/total machine hours

= $92,000/4,600 = $20 per machine hour

c. General factory = $89,000/65,000 = $1.369 per unit produced

2. Determination of the unit product cost of each product using ABC system:

                                           Hubs              Sprockets

Total production costs   $825,640         $1,101,340

Units produced                 15,000               50,000

Unit product cost =          $55.04               $22.03

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

(Activity Measure)               Costs

Machine setups

 (number of setups)         $ 28,980        140              112            252

Special processing

 (machine-hours)             $ 92,000   4,600                 0          4,600

General factory

(organization-sustaining) $ 89,000         NA               NA            NA

Direct labor-hours per unit                   0.60             0.20

Total units produced                          15,000           50,000       65,000

Direct materials required per unit         $39                $18

Direct labor wage rate per hour            $12                 $12

b) Total direct labor-hours                 9,000            10,000        19,000

c) Activity rate for each activity cost pool:

1. Machine setups = Total machine setups overhead costs/total machine setups

= $28,980/252 = $115 per machine set up

2. Special processing = Total special processing overhead costs/total machine hours

= $92,000/4,600 = $20 per machine hour

3. General factory = Total general factory overhead costs divided by total units produced

= $89,000/65,000 = $1.3692 per unit produced

d) Overhead Allocation:

                                          Hubs             Sprockets          Total

Machine setups               $16,100            $12,880        $28,980

Special processing          96,000                 0                96,000

General factory                20,540             68,460          89,000

Total overhead costs   $132,640            $81,340      $213,980

e) Total costs per product

                                          Hubs               Sprockets             Total

Direct materials costs     $585,000         $900,000         $1,485,000

Direct labor costs            $108,000          $120,000           $228,000

Total overhead costs      $132,640             $81,340            $213,980

Total production costs   $825,640         $1,101,340         $1,926,980

Units produced                 15,000               50,000

Unit product cost =          $55.04               $22.03

f) Activity based costing system (ABC) is a costing technique that accumulates according to activity pools and allocates costs based on the activities carried out.  For example, the general factory overhead costs, could be allocated based on direct labour hours, machine hours, or total units of production.  It calculates the allocation rate based on the accepted activity pool.

A homeowner from State A hired a contractor from State B to build a vacation home for her in State C. The parties signe
scZoUnD [109]

The following facts is most relevant to the court's decision on the homeowner's motion :<u> The contractor removed the case to the </u><u>federal court</u><u> for State A.</u>

<u />

<u>INTERPRETATION-</u>

The commencement of the action in State A is most relevant. When a case is removed from state court to federal court, venue is set in the federal district court that embraces the state court in which the action was pending, making the federal district court of State A the only appropriate venue choice.

Thus, (C) is the correct answer because the most (indeed, only) relevant fact is the fact that the action was commenced in a court of State A.

In answer choice (B)

Unlike cases commenced in federal court, in cases removed to federal court, the residence of the defendant contractor.

In answer choices (A) and (D)

The place where a substantial part of events relating to the claim occurred are irrelevant.

Therefore we can conclude that the correct choice is C.

Your question is incomplete, but most probably your full question was:

A homeowner from State A hired a contractor from State B to build a vacation home for her in State C:

A. The parties signed the contract in State A.

B. The contractor breached the contract, and the homeowner sued the contractor in a court of State A, seeking damages of $100,000.

C. The contractor removed the case to the federal court for State A.

D. The homeowner promptly moved to remand the case to state court, arguing that venue was improper.

Which of the following facts is most relevant to the court's decision on the homeowner's motion?

You're trying to save to buy a new $196,000 Ferrari. You have $46,000 today that can be invested at your bank. The bank pays 5.4
katovenus [111]

Answer:

It will take 27.56 years to gain $196,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value (FV)= $196,000

Present value (PV)= $46,000

Interest rate= 5.4% = 0.054

<u>To calculate the time required to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:</u>

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)  

n= ln(196,000/46,000) / ln(1.054)

n= 27.56

It will take 27.56 years to gain $196,000.

Consider Frank’s decision to go to college. If he goes to college, he will spend $21,000 on tuition, $1,800 on books, and $11,
alex41 [277]

Answer:

b. $42,600

Explanation:

First, we calculate the total cost of college:

21000+1800+11000=33800

Now, we calculate the net income she would receive, if she didn't go to the college:

16000-7200=8800

Finally, the opportunity cost of going to college is the result of adding the total cost of college plus the net income that she would receive if she works instead of going to college.

33800+8800=42600

Your seller wants to net $100,000 after the 5% commission is paid. Assuming no closing costs, at what price does the home need t
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The home needs to sell for $105,263.16 for the seller to receive net of $100,000.00

Explanation:

The amount that the home needs to sell can derived from the net to seller's formula given as: Net to seller = Sale Price * (100% - commission rate)

Net to seller=$100000

Sale price is unknown

commission rate is 5%

$100000=sale price*(100%-5%)

$100000=sale price *95%

sale price =$100000/95%

sale price =$105263.16

For the seller to receive $100000 after 5% commission the property must e sold for $105,263.16
