Answer:

DL rate: $ 53.75

MH rate: $ 80.625‬

Explanation:

$\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate$

we haveto divide the expected overhead cost over the cost driver chose:

1,112,500 + 500,000 = 1,612,500 total overhead cost

11,000 + 19,000 = 30,000 direct labor hours

5,000 + 15,000 = 20,000 machien hours

DL rate: 1,612,500 / 30,000 = 53.75

MH rate: 1,612,500 / 20,000 = 80.625‬

Answer:

1. $53.75 per direct labor hour

2. $80.625 per machine hour

Explanation:

Total manufacturing overhead costs= $1112500+$500000 = $1612500

Total direct labor hours= 11000+19000=30000

Total machine hours= 5000+15000=20000

1. Company’s single plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours

= Estimated overhead costs/Estimated direct labor hours

=$1612500/30000 =$53.75 per direct labor hour

2. Company’s single plantwide overhead rate based on machine hours

= Estimated overhead costs/Estimated Machine hours

=$1612500/20000 =$80.625 per machine hour

When the price of candy bars is $1.00, the quantity demanded is 500 per day. When the price falls to $0.80, the quantity demande

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The demand for candy bars is inelastic

Explanation:

The midpoint rule calculate the price elasticity of demand as percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price:

<u>% change in quantity </u>

$\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{ \frac{Q_2 + Q_1}{2} } \times 100$

The quantity demanded increased from 500 to 600. We have

$Q_1 = 500 \: and \: Q_2 = 600$

$\implies \frac{600 - 500}{ \frac{600 + 500}{2} } \times 100 \\ = \frac{100}{ \frac{1100}{2} } \\ = \frac{100}{550} \\ = \frac{2}{11}$

<u>% change in price</u>

$\frac{P_2-P_1}{ \frac{P_2 + P_1}{2} } \times 100$

The price changed from 1 dollar to 0.8 dollars.

$\frac{0.8 - 1}{ \frac{0.8 + 1}{2} } = - \frac{2}{9}$

Price elasticity if demand is

$\frac{ \frac{2}{11} \%}{ - \frac{2}{9} \%} = - \frac{9}{11} = - 0.82$

The negative sign tells us that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded.

Since 0.82 is less than 1, the demand for candy bars is inelastic

Ksju [112]

Answer:

22.85

Explanation:

Present value (PV): $500,000

Rate: 6.5% per annual

Payment (PMT) : $40,000 per year

We can use excel to calculate the maximum number of whole payments that can be withdrawn before the account is exhausted

=NPER(rate, PMT, -PV,,1) = NPER (6.5%,40000,-500000,,1) = 22.85
