Answer:
Allocation rate Machining= $50 per machine hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated Machining cost= $4,000,000
Estimated Number of machine hours= 80,000
<u>To calculate the allocation rate for the Machining department, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Allocation rate Machining= total estimated costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Allocation rate Machining= 4,000,000 / 80,000
Allocation rate Machining= $50 per machine hour
Answer:
Future value (FV) = $57,908
Present value (PV) = $8,860
Number of years (n) = 18 years
Interest rate = ?
FV = PV(1 + r)n
$57,908 = $8,860(1 + r)18
$57,908 = $8,860(1 + r)18
<u>$57,908</u> = (1 + r)18
$8,860
6.535891648 = (1 + r)18
18√6.535891648 = 1 + r
1.10993 - 1 = r
r = 0.10992 = 10.99%
Explanation:
In this case, we will apply the future value of a lump sum (single investment) formula. The present value, future value and number of years are given with the exception of interest rate. Thus, interest rate is made the subject of the formula.

Explanation:
Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is a very useful tool in Economics to ascertain if goods are compliments or Substitutes.
Cross Price Elasticity of Demand (CPSD) measures the change in demand in one good due to a change in price is the other good.
If the CPSD is negative then the goods are Compliments meaning that they are used together which is why when the price of one good goes down, the demand of the compliment goes up because more of the original good will be bought due to the lower price.
If the CPSD is Positive, it means that they are Substitutes and a Decrease in price in one good leads to a decrease in demand for the other good because people will demand less of it and switch to the former (now cheaper) good.
The formula is,
= % change in Quantity Demanded of Product A /% change in Price of Product B
a. Splishy splashies and Flopsicles
CPSD = -18%/-1%
= 18%
The CPSD for both these products is 18% which is a positive figure. This means that they are Substitutes and <u>should not be marketed together. </u>
b. Splishy Splashies and Flopsicles
CPSD = 3%/-1%
= -3%
With the CPSD being a negative figure here, these goods are Compliments.
Splishy Splashies and Flopsicles <u>should be Marketed together</u> as they compliment each other.
