Crimson Tide Company uses a job-order costing system. At Crimson Tide, overhead costs are applied to jobs on the basis of machine-hours.

For the current year, Crimson Tide estimated that its machines would work for a total of 26,000 machine-hours. Tide also estimated for the current year that it would incur $124,800 in manufacturing overhead cost.

The following transactions occurred during the year:

a. Raw materials requisitioned for use in production, $300,000 (80% direct and 20% indirect).

b. The following costs were incurred for employee services:

c. Total insurance costs were $21,000 Note: Of the total insurance cost, 90% relates to factory operations, and 10% relates to selling and administrative activities.

d. In the factory only, heat, power, and water costs incurred in the factory totalled $60,000.

e. Total depreciation recorded for the year was  $71,000 Note: Of the total depreciation recorded 85% relates to factory operations, and 15% relates to selling and administrative activities.

f. Advertising costs incurred was $61,000.

g. According to their job cost sheets, goods that cost $491,000 to manufacture were transferred to the finished goods warehouse.

h. Sales for the year totaled $722,000. The total cost to manufacture these goods according to their job cost sheets was $486,000.

i. The company actually used 51,000 machine-hours during the year.

Required:

1. Determine the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year. (Round predetermined overhead rate to 2 decimal places.).

2. Prepare an income statement for the year. (Hint: No calculations are required to determine the cost of goods sold before any adjustment for underapplied or overapplied overhead.) (Round predetermined overhead rate to 2 decimal places.)

Assume that you purchased a share of the Company at the beginning of 2018 for $54.58. One year later the stock was worth $53.53, but during 2018 you received a cash dividend of $2.32

Calculate the following:

1. Income

2. Capital gain (loss)

3. Total return – a. in dollars; b. as a percent

heat transfer question, show equations, assumptions, calculations and steps clearly. will give thumbs up rating if solved correctly in 50 minutes

part a:

What is the Lumped Capacitance Method, what does it assume, and for which criteria is it valid?

part b:

When part of a system is perfectly insulated, how do we translate this mathematically as a boundary condition?

part c:

State three important assumptions that must be respected for the thermal resistance concept to be valid in a plane wall.

Give an example of a program that uses the nongeneric version of a class from the STL and the equivalent program that uses the generic version. How do the two implementations differ? Why is having the syntax of generics better?

Consider the natural join of the relation R(A,B) and S(A,C) on attribute A. Neither relations have any indexes built on them. Assume that R and S have 80,000 and 20,000 blocks, respectively. The cost of a join is the number of its block I/Os accesses. If the algorithms need to sort the relations, they must use two-pass multi-way merge sort.

QUESTION:

Assume that there are 10 blocks available in the main memory. What is the fastest join algorithm for computing the join of R and S? What is the cost of this algorithm?

Recursion is a technique for breaking down a complex problem into smaller pieces and then combining the results to obtain the desired answer. The most common example of recursion is calculating factorials. Describe another problem that can be solved using recursion and outline the approach using Java or Pseudo-Code. Discuss the Big-Oh run time performance of your example. (Make sure to use your own words – do not cut and paste someone else's solution.)

1. Why do you think the narrator’s mother wanted to live the “American Dream” and leave her family and home in China?

2 Why is so much pressure put on the narrator? 3 Do we also put to much pressure on our kids?

Gilbert Moss and Angela Pasaic spent several summers during their college years working at archaeological sites in the Southwest. While at those digs, they learned how to make ceramic tiles from local artisans. After college they made use of their college experiences to start a tile manufacturing firm called Mossaic Tiles, Ltd. They opened their plant in New Mexico, where they would have convenient access to a special clay they intend to use to make a clay derivative for their tiles. Their manufacturing operation consists of a few relatively simple but precarious steps, including molding the tiles, baking, and glazing. Gilbert and Angela plan to produce two basic types of tile for use in home bathrooms, kitchens, sunrooms, and laundry rooms. The two types of tile are a larger, single-colored tile and a smaller, patterned tile. In the manufacturing process, the color or pattern is added before a tile is glazed. Either a single color is sprayed over the top of a baked set of tiles or a stenciled pattern is sprayed on the top of a baked set of tiles. The tiles are produced in batches of 100. The first step is to pour the clay derivative into specially constructed molds. It takes 18 minutes to mold a batch of 100 larger tiles and 15 minutes to build a mold for a batch of 100 smaller tiles. The company has 60 hours available each week for molding. After the tiles are molded, they are baked in a kiln: 0.27 hour for a batch of 100 larger tiles and 0.58 hour for a batch of 100 smaller tiles. The company has 105 hours available each week for baking. After baking, the tiles are either colored or patterned and glazed. This process takes 0.16 hour for a batch of 100 larger tiles and 0.20 hour for a batch of 100 smaller tiles. Forty hours are available each week for the glazing process. Each batch of 100 large tiles requires 32.8 pounds of the clay derivative to produce, whereas each batch of smaller tiles requires 20 pounds. The company has 6,000 pounds of the clay derivative available each week. Mossaic Tiles earns a profit of $190 for each batch of 100 of the larger tiles and $240 for each batch of 100 smaller patterned tiles. Angela and Gilbert want to know how many batches of each type of tile to produce each week to maximize profit. In addition, they have some questions about resource usage they would like answered.

k. The kiln for glazing had to be shut down for 3 hours, reducing the available kiln hours from 40 to 37. What effect will this have on the solution? l. What are the reduced costs for larger and smaller tiles? Explain.

I don’t know how to do part l

2. Find the optimal allocation of demand to production facilities for the data given in the following table. (Hint: Use the model for allocating demand to existing facilities. First, formulate the problem and then use Excel Solver to find the optimal results.)

Write an inline assembly program that initializes a 100 byte area of memory to 0xFF using the STOS instruction with REP using DWORD transfers.

C program:

1, Make two parallel arrays, one to keep track of food names and another to keep track of the food prices. There will be a total of 10 items, with a total of about 100 characters for each food name title (i think we can use malloc for the strings and allocate it accordingly)

Basically it will be something like a menu:

1, we will enter the food information

2, it will list all the food names and prices

3,then it will show a total value of the food inventory

Thanks!

To clarify, this is basically an inventory tracking. The user is the one inputting the food names, like for example the user inputs Donut and the price for Donut $3.00 that would be tracked, then the user enters 9 more items+ their prices(this is where the parallel array comes in). giving us 10 food items in the inventory.

How do you simplify the following boolean expressions:

Y₃= X3' X2 X1 X0' + X3' X2 X1 X0 + X3 X2 X1 X0' +X3X2X1X0

Y2 = X3' X2 X1' X0' + X3' X2 X1' X0 + X3 X2 X1' X0' + X3 X2 X1' X0 +  X3 X2' X1' X0' + X3 X2' X1' X0 + X3 X2' X1 X0' + X3 X2' X1 X0

Y1 = X3' X2' X1 X0' + X3' X2' X1 X0 + X3' X2 X1 X0' + X3' X2 X1 X0 +  X3 X2' X1' X0' + X3 X2' X1' X0 + X3 X2 X1' X0' + X3 X2 X1' X0

Y0 = X3' X2' X1' X0 + X3' X2' X1 X0 + X3' X2 X1' X0 + X3' X2 X1 X0 +  X3 X2' X1' X0 + X3 X2' X1 X0 + X3 X2 X1' X0 + X3 X2 X1 X0
