A balloon is to be used to carry meteorological instruments to an elevation of 18000 feet. The balloon is filled with helium at the ground level temperature and pressure ( 70 degrees Fahrenheit, 1 atm). The balloon material weighs .001 lb per square foot. If the instruments weigh 12 lbs, what should the diameter be of the spherical balloon ? Assume the temperature to drop 10 degrees Fahrenheit for every 4000 feet height.

The mean score on a science assessment for 59 male high school
students was 319.5 and the standard deviation 2.5. The mean test
score on the same test for 40 female high school students was 298.9

ABC Manufacturing Inc. ends the month with two jobs still in progress. Job 5 has $10,000 of materials, $2,000 of direct labor and $8,000 of manufacturing overhead allocated. Job 6 was $30,000 of materials, $2,000 of direct labor and $10,000 of manufacturing overhead allocated. The cost of goods sold for the month was $40,000 and of that 30% was overhead. There were no finished goods in stock as the month ends. If the manufacturing overhead is underallocated by $10,000, which of the following choices would be the correct way to prorate it, assuming the proration is based on the allocated overhead in the ending balances of work-in-process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold? (Round any allocation percentages to one decimal place, X.X%.)
A. Job 6 should be allocated another $6,000 of cost
B. Job 5 should be allocated another $6,000 of cost
C. Cost of goods sold should be reduced by $4,000
D. Cost of goods sold should be increased by $4,000

*Allocated on the basis of program revenues.
The head administrator of Jackson County Senior Services, Judith Miyama, considers last year’s net operating income of $43,800 to be unsatisfactory; therefore, she is considering the possibility of discontinuing the housekeeping program.
The depreciation in housekeeping is for a small van that is used to carry the housekeepers and their equipment from job to job. If the program were discontinued, the van would be donated to a charitable organization. None of the general administrative overhead would be avoided if the housekeeping program were dropped, but the liability insurance and the salary of the program administrator would be avoided.
Required:
1-a. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Housekeeping program?
1-b. Should the Housekeeping program be discontinued? yes or no?
2-a. Prepare a properly formatted segmented income statement.
|
2-b. Would a segmented income statement format be more useful to management in assessing the long-run financial viability of the various services? yes or no?
