Answer: $22,500

Explanation:

First calculate the rate of allocation based on sales to determine how much of Department T's sales should be attributed to Advertising.

The Rate of Allocation based on Sales = Advertising Expense/Total sales

= 50,000/475,000

= 0.105263

= 10.5263%

This 10.5% can then be used to find out how much of Advertising to apportion to Department T based on department sales,

= Department sales * Allocation rate

= 213,750 * 10.5263%

= $22,500

$22,500 should be allocated to Department T.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

annual interest rate = 9.336%, monthly 0.778%

Explanation:

Dealer A: down payment of $2,000 + 36 monthly payments of $564.05

Dealer B: down payment of $4,000 + 36 monthly payments of $500.14

we must find the interest rate at which both dealers' offers have the same present value:

$2,000 + PV monthly payments A = $4,000 + PV monthly payments B

PV monthly payments A = payment A x {1/r - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶}  

PV monthly payments B = payment B x {1/r - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶}  

we must use trial and error:

for r = 0.8% monthly, annually = 9.6%

PV monthly payments A = $564.05 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $17,582.76

PV monthly payments B = $500.14 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $15,590.54

the difference between them = $17,582.76 - $15,590.54 = $1,992.22 ≤ $2,000, so r must be a little lower

for r = 0.78% monthly, annually = 9.36%

PV monthly payments A = $564.05 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $17,644.46

PV monthly payments B = $500.14 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $15,645.24

the difference between them = $17,644.16 - $15,645.24 = $1,998.92 ≤ $2,000, so r must be a little lower

for r = 0.77% monthly, annually = 9.24%

PV monthly payments A = $564.05 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $17,675.42

PV monthly payments B = $500.14 x {1/0.008 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $15,672.70

the difference between them = $17,675.42 - $15,672.70 = $2,002.72 ≥ $2,000, so r must be a little higher

we continue until we find that r = 0.778% monthly, annually 9.336%

PV monthly payments A = $564.05 x {1/0.00778 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $17,650.64

PV monthly payments B = $500.14 x {1/0.00778 - 1 /[r x (1 + r)³⁶} = $15,650.70

the difference between them = $17,650.64 - $15,650.70 = $2,000.06 ≈ $2,000, so that is our r
