Answer:

A). The price of gasoline increased in coastal cities since gasoline was harder to find.

Explanation:

As per the principles of demand and supply, a decrease in supply while demand remains constant will cause the price to increase. In Georgia, the supply of gasoline was interrupted by the storm's effect. There was little gasoline coming in, leading to a shortage. After Electricity went off, gasoline demand must have gone high as people needed fuel for generators.

Gasoline has no close substitutes, especially when used as fuel for cars and generators. A shortage results in the scramble for the little available products. Sellers hike prices to maximize profits, and buyers are willing to pay more to get the scarce gasoline, thereby increasing its prices.

Pinnocle Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system: Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Product margin= $9,607.5

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the allocation rates:

Assembly= 1,533,840 / 77,000= $19.92 per machine-hour

Processing orders= 91,065 / 1,950= $46.7 per order

Inspection= 139,788 / 1,980= $70.6 per inspection-hour

Now, we need to allocate overhead:

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

Assembly= 19.92*660= 13,147.2

Processing orders= 46.7*50= 2,335

Inspection= 70.6*10= 706

Total= $16,188.2

Finally, the product margin for product S78N:

Product margin= 430* (124.3 - 51.25 - 13.06) - 16,188.2

Product margin= $9,607.5
