You deposit $4000 into a savings account. the account earns 2.75% simple interest. how long will it take to earn $220 in interes
Dovator [93]
Simple interest means that you only need to find the interest once and then keep adding it on every year. In this case, the interest would be 2.75% of $4000 every year, which is 110. 

In 2 years, you'll have 220 because every year you gain 110 in interest.

erica [24]

Answer:

Direct Material Cost

= Cost of hardware + cost of wood

= 42,300 + 121,200

= $‭163,500‬

Direct labor

= Wages of Assembly workers + Finishing workers

= 87,400 + 74,100

= $‭161,500‬

Manufacturing Overhead

= Depreciation + Factory prop. taxes + Factory rent + Glue + Production Supervisor salary + Utilities for factory + Wages for maintenance workers

= 32,000 + 15,500 + 50,000 + 3,030 + 41,200 + 27,800 + 33,200

= $‭202,730‬

Prime Cost

= Direct labor + Direct material

= 161,500 + 163,500

= $‭325,000‬

Conversion Cost

= Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead

= 161,500 + 202,730

= $‭364,230‬

Total Period Cost

= Advertising + Sales Manager's salary

= 25,600 + 41,500

= $‭67,100‬
