Answer:

B. Each​ product, or​ job, uses the department to a different extent.

Explanation:

Departmental overhead rates uses a standard charge that is based on produced units attributed to a department.

Costs are applied with high precision.

When this model is used, the standard rate is multiplied by the number of units produced in the department, so there is no over allocation of resources.

Lena [83]

Answer:

The budgeted production of Product A for the year would be is 20,400 units

Explanation:

Since in the question, the ending inventory is 20% higher than beginning inventory.

So,

Let us assume the beginning inventory is based on 100. So, for ending inventory it would be 100 + 20 = 120

Now,

Method 1 : Ending inventory = 2,000 × 120 ÷ 100

                                        = 2,400

Method 2 : Ending inventory = 2000 + 2000 × 20%

                                 = 2000 + 400

                                 = 2400 units

In both the methods, the answer is same

After considering the ending inventory, the budgeted could be calculated by using the equation which is shown below:

= Ending inventory + Forecast sales - beginning inventory

=  2,400 + 20,000 - 2,000

= 20,400 units

Thus, budgeted production of Product A for the year would be is 20,400 units.

Fixed vs Variable cost preference. Bates operates a kiosk at a local mall, selling duck calls for $30 each. The variable cost to
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Option 2 should be selected

Explanation:

Using a rational approach which option most benefit and have a minimum cost. We will use the break-even level here to decide which option should be selected.

Option 1

Price per call = $30

Variable cost per call = $18

Contribution = Sales  - Variable cost = $30 - $18 = $12

Fixed Cost = $15,000

Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution per call = $15,000 / $12 = 1,250 calls

Option 2

Price per call = $30

Variable cost per call = $18 + ( $30 x 10% ) = $18 + $3 = $21

Contribution = Sales  - Variable cost = $30 - $21 = $9

Fixed Cost = $9,000

Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution per call = $9,000 / $9 = 1,000 calls

Difference  = 1,250 calls - 1,000 calls = 250 calls

Option 2  is better option because it take 250 less calls to reach at break-even in the month. It should be selected.
