Answer: e. the lowest variable cost per unit that can reasonably be expected.

Explanation:

The lowest variable cost per unit that can reasonably be expected will be used in the computation of the best-case analysis of a project.

ASHA 777 [7]

The adjustment for noncollectable accounts on December 31, 2018:

Debit Bad Debts Expense $13,800

Credit Allowance for Doubtful Account $13,800

Explanation:

In Pave Construction, 2018 is the first year of operations. The company provides services on account of $152,000.

By the end of 2018, cash collections on these accounts total $106,000.

At the end of 2018, Accounts Receivable (the uncollected accounts) has debit balance of $46,000 ($152,000 - $106,000 = $46,000)

Pave estimates that 30% of the uncollected accounts will be bad debts

Bad Debts Expense = 30% x $46,000 = $13,800

The adjusting entry to record the bad debts expense will be:

Debit Bad Debts Expense $13,800

Credit Allowance for Doubtful Account $13,800

The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:

Direct method is a method of cost allocation in which support departments costs are charged directly to the production departments without charging to the other support department.

Based on the above definition, we therefore have:

a. Allocation of Maintenance Department Cost

Total budgeted maintenance-hours of production departments A and B = Budgeted maintenance-hours of production department A + Budgeted maintenance-hours of production department B = 600 + 400 = 1,000

a-1. Maintenance Department Cost allocated to production department A = Maintenance Department Cost * (Budgeted maintenance-hours of production department A / Total budgeted maintenance-hours of production departments A and B) = $320,000 * (600 / 1,000) = $192,000

a-2. Maintenance Department Cost allocated to production department B = Maintenance Department Cost * (Budgeted maintenance-hours of production department B / Total budgeted maintenance-hours of production departments A and B) = $320,000 * (400 / 1,000) = $128,000

b. Allocation of Personnel Department Cost

Total number of employees of production departments A and B = Number of employees of production departments A + Number of employees of production departments B = 160 + 480 = 640

b-1. Personnel Department Cost allocated to production department A = Personnel Department Cost * (Number of employees of production department A / Total Number of employees of production departments A and B) = $80,000 * (160 / 640) = $20,000

b-2. Personnel Department Cost allocated to production department B = Personnel Department Cost * (Number of employees of production department B / Total Number of employees of production departments A and B) = $80,000 * (480 / 640) = $60,000
