You and your friends hike a total of 8 miles to the nearest campsite (Activity A). Upon arriving you break off into teams. One t

eam will set up tents and hammocks for everyone to sleep in (Activity B). At the same time, another team will get wood for a fire (Activity C). Once they have the wood, that same team then proceeds to start the fire (Activity D). The third team will walk to find water (Activity E) and once they find it they will to collect water and bring it back to camp (Activity F). Once the fire is ready and the water is brought back to camp the two groups- the one collecting firewood and the one collecting water- will then purify the water (Activity G). Once the camp is set up and the water is purified everyone will come together and cook dinner around the campfire (Activity H). Once dinner is prepared and eaten half of the group stays behind to put out the fire (Activity I) and half of the group walks away from the campsite to dispose of the food waste (Activity J). After disposing of the food waste the second half of the group returns to the camp (Activity K). Once everyone is at the campsite the day of camping ends

Answer:

a. The critical path is 16 minutes.

b. The length of time to complete the entire process = 23 minutes.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                    to complete         to Complete          to Complete

A Hike to the campsite       3                          5                          8

B Set up campsite               2                          4                          5

D Start a fire                         1                          2                          3

E Find water                        0.5                       1                           3

F Collect water & bring it

back to camp                       1                          2                          4

G Purify the water               1                          2                          4

H Cook and eat dinner       1                          3                          4

I Put out fire                         1                          2                         4

J Dispose of food waste    0.5                      2                          3

K Return from food

 waste disposal                0.25                     1                           2

Total time                         12.25                  27                          45

Critical path: Activity A - Activity B

                     Activity A - Activity C 3 - Activity D 2 - Activity E 1 - Activity F 2

Activity G 2 - Activity H 3 - Activity I and J 2 - Activity K 1

= 3 + 2 + 1 + 2+ 2 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 16 minutes

Length of time to complete the entire process = 27 - 4 = 23

The critical path identifies the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time required to complete them from start to finish.

A company purchased a plant asset for $53,000. It has a salvage value of $3,000 and annual depreciation expense of $5,000. It ca
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The remaining useful life of the asset is = 10 - 3 = 7 years

Explanation:

The straight line method of depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense through out the useful life of the asset. The formula for depreciation expense under this method is,

Depreciation expense = (Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated useful life of the asset

Plugging in the values for depreciation expense per year, cost and salvage value, we can calculate the total expected life of the asset.

5000 = (53000 - 3000) / estimated useful life of the asset

estimated useful life of the asset = 50000 / 5000

estimated useful life of the asset = 10 years

As the accumulated depreciation  balance is of 15000, the depreciation for 15000/5000 = 3years has been charged.

The remaining useful life of the asset is = 10 - 3 = 7 years

Fickel Company has two manufacturing departments—Assembly and Testing & Packaging. The predetermined overhead rates in Assem
Archy [21]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The predetermined overhead rates:

Assembly= $22 per direct labor-hour

Testing & Packaging= $18.00 per direct labor-hour

The company’s direct labor wage rate is $24.00 per hour.

Job N-60:

Assembly:

Direct materials $390

Direct labor $228

Testing & Packaging:

Direct materials $45

Direct labor $132

1) To calculate the total manufacturing cost, first, we need to allocate overhead. To do that, we need direct labor hours for each department.

<u>Assembly:</u>

Direct labor hours= 228/24= 9.5

<u>Testing:</u>

Direct labor hour= 132/24= 5.5

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 22*9.5 + 18*5.5= $308

Total manufacturing cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead

Total manufacturing cost= (390 + 45) + (228 + 132) + (308)= $1,103

2) Unitary cost= 1,103/10= $110.3

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Profit of $8,500

Explanation:

Strike Price = $90,000

Premium = $1,500

Break even point = Strike price - Premium

Break even point = $90,000 - $150

Break even point = $88500

Profit = Break even point - Share price

Profit = $88,500 - $80,000

Profit = $8,500
