Answer:

The answer is A. $ 6

Loss: $(22)

If beet juice is processed into sugar and sold:

Selling price: $78

Costs: $56+ $18+ 32= $106

Loss:($28)

Therefore there is an additional $6 loss.

ollegr [7]

Answer:

Production department $440,000

Sales department $143,000

Explanation:

The allocation of the total cost to the operating departments is proportional to the number of employees. In other words, as the number of employees increases, so does the allocated cost and vice versa.

Hence,

Cost allocated to the production department

= 40/(40 + 13) × $583,000

= 40/53 × $583,000

= $440,000

Cost allocated to the sales department

= 13/(40 + 13) × $583,000

= 13/53 × $583,000

= $143,000

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Given:

Projects done by first worker per day = 1.5

Projects by second worker per day = 2

Projects by third worker per day = 3

Projects by fourth worker per day = 1.5

Actual projects completed per day = 2

Now,

Capacity utilization = \frac{\textup{Actual work done per day}}{\textup{Maximum capacity per day&#10;}}

or

Capacity utilization = \frac{\textup{2}}{\textup{1.5+2+3+1.5}}

or

Capacity utilization = \frac{\textup{2}}{\textup{8}}

or

Capacity utilization = 0.25

= 25%
