The correct answer is 2.2 hours.
I<span>f Eva uses the earliest due date priority rule, the order of the dresses will be as follows: W (1 hour processing time, 1 hour due); Y (2 hrs processing time, 3 hrs due); V (3 hrs processing time, 5 hrs due); Z (5 hrs processing time, 7 hrs due); X (4 hrs processing time, 9 hrs due).</span>
It's easier to do the next step using real numbers. For example, if it's 11am now and W is due in 1 hour, then W is due at noon. If Y is due in 3 hours, then Y is due at 2pm, etc. Then, you need to use the processing time to see how long it will take to make the dresses. For example, since W takes one hour to process, it will be done by noon, its due date.
This means that W and Y will be altered on time, V will be 1 hour late, Z will be 4 hours late, and X will be 6 hours late. To find the average tardiness, add these extra hours (1+4+6) = 11, and divide by the total number of dresses (even the ones that weren't late) 5: 11/5 = 2.2 hours.

Answer:
Retained Earnings increased $28,650 in 2016.
Explanation:
The total increase in Retained Earnings account = Net income = $80,000;
The total decrease in Retained Earnings account = Dividend paid to common shares + Dividend paid to preferred shares = Dividend per common share x Number of common share outstanding + % dividend on preferred stock x par value of preferred stock x number of preferred stock outstanding = 0.75 x 65,000 + 2% x (130,000 / 13,000) x 13,000 = $51,350;
So, Net effect on Retained Earnings Account = $80,000 - $51,350 = $28,650 ( increase).
