Allocation of Service Departments' Direct Costs:

                               Repairs        HR           IT          M1         M2           Total    

Direct costs          $36,000  $55,600  $81,000                              $172,600

Step allocation:

HR direct costs        5,560   -55,600      11,120    19,460    19,460              0

IT costs                            0              0   -92,120    20,471     71,649              0

Repairs costs        -41,560              0             0    16,624    24,936              0

Total costs allocated      0              0             0 $56,555 $116,045 $172,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Usage data:

                      Repairs     HR       IT     M1      M2

Repairs                            0%     0%   40%   60%

HR                     10%       __     20%   35%   35%

IT                        0%       10%    __     20%   70%

HR Costs = $55,600:

Repairs = $5,560 ($55,600 * 10%)

IT = $11,120 ($55,600 * 20%)

M1 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

M2 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

IT costs = $92,120:

Repairs = $0 ($92,120 * 0%)

M1 = $20,471 ($92,120 * 20/90)

m2 = $71,649 ($92,120 * 70/90)

Repair costs = $41,560:

M1 = $16,624 ($41,560 * 40%)

M2 = $24,936 ($41,560 * 60%)

Answer:

HR allocation:

$3,960 = 0.10 × $39,600

$7,920 = 0.20 × $39,600

$13,860 = 0.35 × $39,600

$13,860 = 0.35 × $39,600

 

IT allocation:

$52,920 cost of IT is $45,000 (direct cost) + $7,920 (allocated from HR)

 

$11,760 = 0.2 × $52,920

(0.2 + 0.7)  

$41,160 = 0.7 × $52,920

(0.2 + 0.7)

 

Repairs allocation:

$23,960 cost of Repair is $20,000 (direct cost) + $3,960 (allocated from HR)

$9,584 = 0.40 × $23,960

$14,376 = 0.60 × $23,960

True [87]

Answer:

Net Income $23,588

Retained Earnings $140,088

Explanation:

To calculate the value of the retained earning at the end of the next year it's necessary to find the income of the current year and then deduct the dividends paid during the year, the remaining value adds to the retained earnings.

This value that we get of retained earnings at the end of the year, it's the value missing at the end of the year to explain the accounting equation of Assets = Liabilitites + Equity

Based on the current economic expansion (beginning in mid-2009), what percentage of earners are actually losing income?
steposvetlana [31]

Based on the current economic expansion (beginning in mid-2009), the bottom 90% of earners are actually losing income.

Generation Z refers to the generation born between 1997 and 2012, following the millennial generation. Gen Z will soon be the largest cohort of consumers. Brands wanting to participate in this opportunity should understand their own trends and digital expectations. Economics is the social field that studies how communities use scarce resources to meet their insatiable needs.

Three factors have contributed to the rapid growth of the world population over the last 200 years: Decreased mortality due to economic concomitant increases in fertility; better treatment of the disease reduces child mortality.

Stretch goals expect group members to _____.
rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is work outside their own comfort group as they attempt to understand others’ perspectives.

Explanation:

Stretch goals tend to be a form of job enrichment, where individuals are challenged to perform better than their most recent performance achievement. In the context of group assignment, individuals are challenged to try things outside of their comfort zone. Stretch goals aren’t related to actual physical exercise, thus making answer (B) wrong, and automatically disqualifying answer (D). Nor does it require members to (A) take a break in order to avoid topic-fatigue.
