Answer:
so savings = $2200
bonds = $4400
and mutual fund = $3400
Explanation:
given data
received bonus = $10,000
savings account paying = 4.5% per year
bonds paying = 5%
mutual fund that returned = 4%
income from these investments = $455
to find out
How much did the worker place in the government bonds
solution
we consider amount invested for 4.5 % is = x
and hen his investment in bonds is = 2x for 5%
and rest is 10000- x - 2x
that is = (10000- 3x ) for 4%
so
interest equation will be here
0.045 x + 0.05 (2x) + 0.04 (10000-3x) = 455
solve we get
x = 2200
so savings = $2200
bonds = $4400
and mutual fund = $3400

Answer:
$12,280,000.
Explanation:
All the direct costs involved in the manufacturing of a product except fixed cost is called prime cost e.g direct material, direct labor etc.
Direct Material = $4,200,000
Direct labor = $8,080,000
Total Prime cost = Direct material + Direct labor = $4,200,000 + $8,080,000 = $12,280,000
Overhead costs are not classified as the prime cost because these are indirect costs.
