Spin Cycle Architecture uses three activity pools to apply overhead to its projects. Each activity has a cost driver used to all

ocate the overhead costs to the projects. The activities and related overhead costs are as follows: initial concept formation $52,960; design $420,000; and construction oversight $118,650. The cost drivers and estimated use are as follows.
Activities Cost Drivers Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per Activity
Initial concept formation Number of project changes 16
Design Square feet 140,000
Construction oversight Number of months 105

Required:
a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each activity.
b. Classify each of these activities as unit-level, batch-level, product-level, or facility-level.

Answer:

a. predetermined overhead rate for each activity

initial concept formation  = $3,310 per Project Change

design  = $3 per Square feet

construction oversight  = $1,130 per Month

b. Classification

unit-level activities :

design

batch level activities :

initial concept formation

Product level activities :

design<em> </em>

Facility level activities :

initial concept formation

construction oversight

Explanation:

This question requires application of Activity Based Costing (ABC) method of allocating overheads.

For each overhead a rate is determined as follows :

<em>initial concept formation </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Number of Project Changes

                                                  = $52,960/ 16

                                                  = $3,310 per Project Change

<em>design </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Square feet

                                                  = $420,000/ 140,000

                                                  = $3 per Square feet

<em>construction oversight </em>

Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead Cost / Number of Months

                                                  = $118,650/ 105

                                                  = $1,130 per Month

<em>Classification</em>

The way the activity is to be absorbed in costing determine its classification

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Beginning capital balance(Sam)  $58000

+ Currnt year income ( $40000 / 2 = $20000) $20000

[Devide by 2 because they share income]

- Sam's withdrawal  ($15000)

Sam's capital balance = 58000+20000-15000 = $63000

Three-year Treasury securities currently yield 6%, while 4-year Treasury securities currently yield 6.5%. Assume that the expect
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is 8%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Let 1 year Treasury securities = t

So, Four year Treasury = [(Yield of 3 years Treasury × No. of year) + ( t × No. of  year)] ÷ Number of year

So, by putting the value, we get

6.5% = [(6% × 3) + ( t × 1)] ÷ 4

[(6% × 3) + t] = 6.5% ×4

t = 8%

So, the rate on 1-year Treasury securities three years from now is 8%.

vlada-n [284]

Answer: When you encounter an organization where employees are quite intense, focused, and determined to win, you have encountered an organization with a(n) <u>Mercenary</u> culture.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mercenary is one who always works for money not for achieving any organizational goal. Mercenary culture is one in which employees have the same thinking. Employees are not friends with each other. It is the culture in which everyone thinks of his benefit. People are more determined to win even if they have to sacrifice their ethics.

So this type of culture is not very successful in the long run. Because everybody works for his or her advantage. For an organization to be successful everyone has to work together keeping in mind the benefit of other employees also.
