Tuscaloosa National Bank has two service departments, the Human Resources (HR) Department and the Computing Department. The bank has two other departments that directly service customers, the Deposit Department and the Loan Department. The usage of the two service departments’ output for the year is as follows:
   

User of Service Provider of Service
HR Computing
HR 0 10 %
Computing 10 % 0
Deposit 60 % 50 %
Loan 30 % 40 %

  
The budgeted costs in the two service departments for the year are as follows:

HR $ 569,000
Computing 798,500

  
Required:
Use the reciprocal-services method to allocate the budgeted costs of the HR and Computing departments to the Deposit and Loan departments. (Do not round your intermediate calculations and round final answers to the nearest dollar amount.)

Noodles and Company tested consumer reaction to two spaghetti sauces. Each of 70 judges rated both sauces on a scale of 1 (worst) to 10 (best) using several taste criteria. To correct for possible bias in tasting order, half the judges tasted Sauce A first, while the other half tasted Sauce B first. Actual results are shown below for “overall liking.”

On 3 June 2016, Premier Company bought an equipment at $5,000,000. The useful life of the equipment was estimated to be five years, with a residual value of $500,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation method with half-year convention and adjusts its accounts annually with the year-end on 31 December. Consider the following as two independent assumptions:

(a) Assuming that on 8 May 2019, the company sold the equipment for $1,900,000, receiving $600,000 cash and a two-year, 10% note receivable for the remaining balance. Prepare the journal entries to record the disposal of the equipment on 8 May 2019.

(b) Assuming that on 1 January 2021, the company had added a new component of $300,000 in the equipment to enhance the speed. The company revised the estimated useful life of the equipment from five years to seven years with residual value of $400,000.

(i) Compute the book value of the equipment at 1 January 2021 after upgrade.

(ii) Prepare the journal entries to record the depreciation expense for 2021.

Is there a difference in the mean ratings between the two brands of coffee (use an alpha .05)?

You must use all five steps in hypothesis testing:

  1. Restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations.
  2. Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.
  3. Determine the cutoff sample score on the comparison distribution at which the null hypothesis should be rejected.
  4. Determine your sample’s score on the comparison distribution.
  5. Decide whether to reject the null hypothesis.
