julsineya [31]

Answer:

CC100  has $31.25 per hour

CC11O has $250 per hour

CC120 has $62.5 per hour

CC190 has $62.5 per hour

Explanation:

The IDC rate for each department would be the department IDC allocated divided by operating hours as shown below:

CC100

IDC rate=$25,000/800=$31.25 per hour

CC110

IDC rate=$50,000/200=$250 per hour

CC120

IDC rate=$75,000/1200=$62.5 per hour

CC190

IDC rate=$100,000/1600=$62.5 per hour

Judging from the IDC rates of the departments,department CCC110 seems to have the highest IDC rate per hour,which implies that each hour is charged with $250 against the CC100 where each operating hours is just $31.25.

The higher the IDC rate in a department the higher the cost of the output of that department since the cost has to be recovered from output.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Shortages of building materials and a slower recovery from the storm

Explanation:

From the question we are informed about an instance, whereby a hurricane hits Alabama, causing widespread damage to houses and businesses. The governor of Alabama places price ceilings on all building materials to keep the prices reasonable. In this case,what most likely result is Shortages of building materials and a slower recovery from the storm.

From law of demand, which expressed that provided other factors remain equal, when price of a good goes higher, then there would be less demand of that good from

people and vice versa. higher price brings lower the quantity demanded, and lower price brings higher the quantity demanded, therefore in the case, above as the price of ceilings on all building materials so that price becomes reasonable people demand more and it leads to Shortages of building materials
