Answer:

The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).

Explanation:

Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability

=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%

probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2

0.67          20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243

0.33          -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786

Total=242.239371%

Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)

=15.56%(Approx).

Bauer Manufacturing uses departmental cost driver rates to allocate manufacturing overhead costs to proudcts. Mnaufacturing over
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

2040.

Explanation:

To reach the total manufacturing cost we need to calculate machining and assembling overhead rate first, in order to calculate the rate we need to divide manufacturing overhead cost on number of hours

Machining OH rate = 280000 / 50000 = 5.60  

Assembling OH rate = 360000/40000 = 9.00

 

manufacturing cost:    

                    machine Assembly Total  

Material  425                175             600  

labor               275                300             575  

Overhead                                                 865  

(50*5.60)       280

(65*9)             585            

Total cost                                               2040
