ipn [44]

Answer:

b. $303,000

Explanation:

The activity rate

1. Machining = $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

$=\frac{180000}{9000}$

= $ 20 per machine hour

2. Machine set up = $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

$=\frac{125000}{250}$

= $ 500 per set up

3. Product design = $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

$=\frac{44000}{2}$

= $ 22000 per product

4. Order size = $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

$=\frac{260000}{10000}$

= $ 26 per direct labor hour

Now the ABC cost (Product T05P)

1. Machining = $\text{machine hours} \times \text{activity rate}$

= 4000 x 20

= $ 80,000

2. Machine set ups = $\text{no. of set ups} \times \text{activity rate}$

= 90 x 500

= $ 45,000

3. Product design = $\text{no. of products} \times \text{activity rate}$

= 1 x 22000

= $ 22,000

4. Order size = $\text{direct labor hours} \times \text{activity rate}$

= 6000 x 26

= $ 156,000

Therefore, the total manufacturing overhead cost assigned to product T05P = 80000 + 45000 + 22000 + 156000

= $ 303,000

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: Baby Boomer.

Explanation:

To begin with, the term<em> ''baby boomer''</em> refers to the demographic cohort regarding the generation of people born in the period called ''baby boom'', that occured in some was after the Second World War and comprehends the years between 1946 until 1964. Moreover, the main characteristic of this period was that around 76 million babies were born in America and that an excessive consumerism began to spread.

To continue, the action that Christie advocates is very common to a person of the baby boom generation due to the fact that those people born and grew in times that there was no internet and therefore they tend to give no importance to the online ads and stuff like that.

Is the cost of equity calculated from the CAPM model, pre -tax or post-tax?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The existence of pre-tax cost of debt and post-tax cost of debt is due to the acknoledgement of the tax benefit from issuing debt.There is no tax benefit from paying divdends,so it makes no sense talking about pre-tax,post-tax cost of equity for a firm.When you think about cash flow to equity you can only assume that the taxes owed by the company have already been paid.Now, the taxation over the income of the shareholder is a whole different issue that does not take place in this discussion,since it is not taken in consideration either in cost of equity or cost of debt.
