Answer:

use-and-file rating law

Explanation:

File-and-use rating laws are insurance rules that allow an insurance company to use new rates before they are approved by the state. File-and-use rating laws allow the insurer to use new rates immediately, with the risk that any rate change will be mitigated if the insurance regulator determines the change is not appropriate.

aev [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: underapplied by $2,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Martinez Manufacturing applies overhead based on direct labor hours.

The company estimates that their overhead for the year will be $180,000 and that they will use 72,000 direct labor hours.

During the year, Martinez Manufacturing used 75,000 direct labor hours and actual overhead costs were $190,000

We need to calculate if the overhead was under or over applied and in what amount.

Predetermined overhead rate= total estimated manufacturing overhead for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined overhead rate= 180000/72000= $2.5 an hour

Now, we can calculate the amount of overhead allocated:

Overhead allocated= 75000 hours*2.5= $187,500

Over/under applied= actual overhead - allocated overhead= 190,000 - 185,500= $2,500 underapplied

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

White Division Gross Profit  = $72,200

Grey Division Gross Profit =  $247,700

Explanation:

                                                     White Division    Grey division

Sales (net)                                      $270,000            $540,000

Less: Cost of goods sold              <u> $135,000  </u>          <u>$202,500</u>

Gross Margin                                 $135,000             $337,500

Less: Salary Expenses                   $37,800              $64,800

Rent                                                 <u>$25,000</u>              <u>$25,000</u>

Gross Profit                                   <u> $72,200 </u>             <u>$247,700</u>

The White Division occupies 25,000 square feet in the plant. The Grey Division occupies 25,000 square feet. Hence, the rent expenses will be shared equally. Rent = $50,000 hence, both division will pay $25,000 each              for rent
