Answer:
FALSE
Explanation:
It is False that the difference between operations and projects is that operations end when their objectives have been reached, whereas projects do not.
The reverse is true because projects are time-bound and they come to an end when their objectives have been achieved, but company operations are expected to continue as a going concern.
A project is an activity to meet the creation of a unique product or service, an thereafter terminates while operations are day to day routine activities that are expected to continue

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
Answer:
C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250
Explanation:
On April 1 2016, the following journal entry will be recorded in respect of the premium paid on a one year insurance policy:
Debit Credit
Prepaid Insurance $3,000
Cash $3,000
The year end given in this question is December 31, 2016 and the insurance premium is for one year and since the insurance premium is paid on April 1, 2016, therefore, only expense in respect of 9 months i.e. from April 1, 2016 to the December 31, 2016 will be recognised in this year. Remaining expense of three months will be recognised in the Year ended December 31,2017.
The following Journal entry will be recorded in respect of insurance expense in accounts on December 31, 2016.
Debit Credit
Insurance expense(3,000*9/12) 2,250
Prepaid Insurance 2,250
So the answer will be C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250
