Companies can improve job cost accuracy by using ________. a. a plantwide overhead rate direct-labor hours b. to apply overhead
Alex787 [66]

Answer: c. multiple predetermined overhead costs

Explanation:

Companies can improve job cost accuracy by using ________.

(A) a plantwide overhead rate

(B) direct-labor hours to apply overhead

(C) multiple predetermined overhead rates

(D) number of units in the job to apply overhead

By applying multiple predetermined overhead costs, companies can improve job cost accuracy. This is because it provides more accurate product costs. It is usually employed in large companies. Here, each department engaged in production runs its own predetermined overhead rate. Though while more complex, is known to be more accurate since it reflects the differences across the various production departments in how overhead costs are incurred, hence, job accuracy is improved significantly.

Granfield Company has a piece of manufacturing equipment with a book value of $44,000 and a remaining useful life of four years.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$26,000

Explanation:

The calculation of Net increase or decrease in income on replacement is shown below:-

Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years = Variable manufacturing costs × Life

= $19,800 × 4

= $79,200

Net Investment to be made in New machine = Initial investment of new machine - Traded in value of old machine

= $128,000 - $22,800

= $105,200

Net financial disadvantage of replacement = Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years - Net Investment to be made in New machine

= $79,200 - $105,200

= $26,000

So, for computing the net financial disadvantage of replacement we simply applied the above formula.

just olya [345]

Answer:

% of completion= 33.7% for 2021

% of completion = 55.4% for 2022

% of completion = 100% for 2023

Gross profit/loss  =   $696,770 for 2021

Gross profit/loss =  -$141,660  for 2022

Gross profit/loss = -$400,000  for 2023

Explanation: 

See the table below

Year          Actual cost       Total incurred cost       Total estimated cost

2021        $2,070,000        $2,070,000                  $6,140,000

2022       $2,620,000        $4,690,000                  $8,470,000

2023       $3,920,000        $8,610,000                    $8,610,000

Percentage of completion is calculated using the formula;

% of completion =  Total incurred cost /Total estimated cost *100

For 2021:

% of completion = $2,070,000 /$6,140,000 *100

                           =0.337 *100

                            =33.7%

For 2022:

% of completion = $4,690,000 /$8,470,000 *100

                           =0.554 *100

                           = 55.4%

For 2023:

% of completion = $8,610,000 / $8,610,000 *100

                            =1 * 100

                             = 100%

A streaming music site changed its format to focus on previously unreleased music from rising artists. the site manager now want
pishuonlain [190]

Answer : The p-value of 0.0743 is greater than alpha at 0.05; so we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no significant difference in the number of unique users before and after a change in policy.

In this question, the manager wants to know if the number of users has changed.

So, the null and alternate hypotheses are:

Null Hypothesis: {H_{0}}: \mu = 131,520

Alternate Hypothesis : {H_{1}}: \mu \not\equiv 131,520

Type of test : Two-tailed test

The level of significance is 95%

We can calculate alpha (α) as follows:

\alpha = 1- Confidence Level

\alpha = 1- 0.95
\alpha = 0.05

The p value = 0.0743.

We use the following rules to arrive at a conclusion when p-values and alpha is given:

If p-value < \alpha, reject the null hypothesis

If p-value \geq \alpha, we don't reject the null hypothesis.

Since the p-value is greater than alpha, we don't reject the null hypothesis.
