Answer:

$34.46

Explanation:

In this Question there is Highest value of 10% and the probability of 90%.

we will use following formula to calculate the highest value of the stock

z value = ( x - mean ) / Standard deviation

where

x = the highest value

z score value at 10% = 1.28

Placing value in the formula

1.28 = ( x - $29.51 ) / $3.87

1.28 x $3.87 = x - $29.51

$4.9536 = x - $29.51

x = $4.9536 + $29.51

x = 34.4636

EMD Corporation manufactures two products, Product S and Product W. Product W is of fairly recent origin, having been developed
Julli [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.

Direct labour hours work during the period:

Product S=72,400 units×1 hour=72,400 hours

Product W=18,100 units × 3 hours=54,300 hours

Total labour hours=126,700 hour

Predetermined overhead rate=$958,396/126,700  =7.56 per hour

2.

Unit product cost of S = Direct Material cost + Direct labour cost + Overhead = 12+16+7.56*1 = $35.56

Unit product cost of W = Direct Material cost + Direct labour cost + Overhead = 34+13+7.56*3 = $69.68
