Answer:

1) Job-order costing

2)$ 7.2 per direct labor hour

3)$ 7.941 per direct labor hour

4)Cost of installation= $ 4108.23

Explanation:

In job order costing the cost accounting procedures are designed to assign costs to each job. Then the costs assigned to each job are averaged over the units of production in the job to obtain an average cost per unit.

A process costing system accumulates all production costs for a large number of units of outputs and then these costs are averaged over all the units.

1) As each job is different, requiring different materials and labor for installing the systems Job-order costing will be used.

2) If normal costing is used then the  Overhead cost are $50,328

Number of direct labor hours are 6,990

The overhead rate=Overhead costs/ Number of direct labor hours

The overhead rate=$50,328/6,990= $ 7.2 per direct labor hour

3) The average actual wage rate = Actual Overhead costs / Number of direct labor hours

The average actual wage rate = $48,043.05/ 6,050=$ 7.941 per direct labor hour

4) Direct materials=$3,540

Direct labor hours= 30

Actual Direct Labor rate =  ($66,550/6,050 )= $ 11

Direct Labor = ($66,550/6,050 )*30 =11*30=$ 330

Overheads 30 *7.941= $ 238.23

Cost of installation= $3,540 +$ 330+$ 238.23= $ 4108.23

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

A, independence

Explanation:

Motivation can be defined as the stimulation of individuals to achieve a certain goal.

It can also be said to be the a force that drives the wants, needs, etc of an individual. Motivation have various influencing factors as well as several modes.

Factors that influences motivation include; valence, instrumentality, expectancy, etc.

Modes of motivation include; intrinsic, extrinsic, introjected and identified motivation.

From the above question, independence isn't a factor that influences motivation. This is because independence, according to the dictionary, can be said to be a state of freedom from something.

Freedom does not motivate a person to achieve anything as there will be no pressure or driving force or even an individual to encourage. This makes goals impossible to difficult to achieve.

Cheers.
