Substitute the computed total Administration costs into the equation for Accounting
and solve as before. Round the final answer to the nearest dollar.

Accounting Allocation
The equations set up:
S2 = 144,000 + 10% S1
S1 = 360,000 + 20% S2
S1 = Administration; S2 = Accounting
Substitute Accounting costs into the equation for Administration and solve in the
shaded area below. Round the final answer to the nearest dollar.
The computed cost to be allocated for Accounting is:
.98 S2 = 180,000
S2 = 144,000 + 36,000 + .02 S2
S2 = 144,000 + .10 (360,000 +.2 S2)
