= (35,000 hours + 20,000 hours + 15,000 hours + 30,000 hours) x $4 per machine hour = 100,000 machine hours x $4 per machine hour = $400,000
total fixed manufacturing overhead = $50,000 per quarter x 4 quarters = $200,000
Answer:
Fair Value method, and only a portion of Ima's 2004 dividends represent earnings after Pal's acquisition.
Explanation:
The part of the dividend that reduce the carrying value of the investment can be said to be a liquidating dividend. Liquidating dividend is said to have occurred when the payment made by the investee is higher than the income that was earned in the course of the period in which the shares of the investee was owned by the investor.
On the other hand, the cost method treats liquidating dividends as spend or reduction in the investment account and treats normal dividend as income. Hence it is impossible for the firm to use equity method.
This is because dividend are seen as a reduction in investment account under the equity method. This means that dividends received cannot be taken as income in this method, hence C and D are wrong.

Following are some types of account investments that are better for emergency funds and the return on these investment varies depending upon the risk born by the investors:
- Current Account Investments
- Commodity Investments
- Mutual Funds
If the inflation rate is below the return paid on the current account then it could be a better investment option as the money doesn't loose its value over time.
If the inflation rate is higher than the return paid on the current account then it is better to invest in commodities like gold, petroleum products, etc, that are often termed as speculative investments.
If the investor is risk seeking person, then it is better to invest in mutual funds as the return on such investments is higher because of the higher risk that the investor bears.
