Answer:

Original Cost = $26.10

Annual Amortization (Old) = $26.10 / 9 years

Annual Amortization (Old) = $2.9 million

Amortization till Date (2017 - 2021) = $2.9*4 = $11.6 million

Unamortized Value = $26.10 million - $11.6 million

Unamortized Value = $14.5 million

Remaining Life = 6 - 4

Remaining Life = 2 Years

New Amortization = Unamortized Value/Remaining Life

New Amortization =  $14.5/2

New Amortization = $7.25 million

                    Journal Entry

Amortization Expense Debit - $7.25 million

      Patent Credit -  $7.25 million

EastWind [94]

Answer:

B) MBO

Explanation:

An MBO is a secondary vocational education program carried out in the Netherlands. It lasts for four years and its courses go from assistant training, basic vocational training, professional training and finally middle-management training. It is basically the dutch equivalent of technical college, since you start the MBO when you are around 18 years old. After you complete your MBO you can continue your college education.

The MBO covers a lot of professions but it is basically hands on training, since between 20 -60% of the time is practical training (they work as someone else's assistant or trainee).

Isabella is her boss's trainee and since she is about to graduate, she must start training 2 new assistants.

Airida [17]

Answer:

$94.10 per unit

Explanation:

Total direct labor-hours 10,000

Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $33,000

Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $2.50

Job K332:

Number of units in the job 70

Total direct labor-hours 140

Direct materials $455

Direct labor cost $5,320

total variable overhead = $2.50 x 140 = $350

prorated fixed overhead = (total fixed overhead / total direct labor hours) x direct labor hours used = ($33,000 / 10,000) x 140 = $462

total product cost = direct labor + direct materials + variable overhead + prorated fixed overhead = $5,320 + $455 + $350 + $462 = $6,587

product cost per unit = $6,587 / 70 units = $94.10 per unit
