9) the management of pundt corporation would like to investigate the possibility of
basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. the company's controller
has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. in this example,
the allocation base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for
the upcoming year is 15,000 machine-hours. in addition, capacity is 19,000
machine-hours and the actual level of activity for the year is 15,100 machine-hours. all
of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and is $45,600 per year. for simplicity, it is
assumed that this is the estimated manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the
manufacturing overhead at capacity. it is further assumed that this is also the actual
amount of manufacturing overhead for the year. a number of jobs were worked on
during the year, one of which was job k41p. this job required 140 machine-hours.
if the company bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, the amount of
manufacturing overhead charged to the job k41p is closest to:
a.$336.00
b.$422.78
c.$389.27
d.$399.00
10) (ignore income taxes in this problem.) treads corporation is considering the
replacement of an old machine that is currently being used. the old machine is fully
depreciated but can be used by the corporation for five more years. if treads decides to
replace the old machine, picco company has offered to purchase the old machine for
$60,000. the old machine would have no salvage value in five years.
the new machine would be acquired from hillcrest industries for $1,000,000 in cash. the
new machine has an expected useful life of five years with no salvage value. due to the
increased efficiency of the new machine, estimated annual cash savings of $300,000
would be generated.
treads corporation uses a discount rate of 12%.
the internal rate of return of the project is closest to:
a.14%
b.16%
c.18%
d.20%

16) products a, b, and c are produced from a single raw material input. the raw material
costs $90,000, from which 5,000 units of a, 10,000 units of b, and 15,000 units of c can
be produced each period. product a can be sold at the split-off point for $2 per unit, or it
can be processed further at a cost of $12,500 and then sold for $5 per unit. product a
should be:
a.sold at the split-off point, since further processing would result in a loss of $0.50 per
unit
b.processed further, since this will increase profits by $2,500 each period
c.sold at the split-off point, since further processing will result in a loss of $2,500 each
period
d.processed further, since this will increase profits by $12,500 each period
