Nizam Sanjay, a member of the controllers department, believes that overhead activities and costs should be classified into groups that have the same driver. He has decided that unloading incoming goods, counting goods, and inspecting goods can be grouped together as a more general receiving activity, since these three activities are all driven by the number of receiving orders. The 10 months of data shown below have been gathered for the receiving activity. Required: 1. Prepare a scattergraph, plotting the receiving costs against the number of purchase orders. Use the vertical axis for costs and the horizontal axis for orders. 2. Select two points that make the best fit, and compute a cost formula for receiving costs. 3. Using the high-low method, prepare a cost formula for the receiving activity. 4. Using the method of least squares, prepare a cost formula for the receiving activity. What is the coefficient of determination?

It has two production departments, Stamping and Plating, and two service departments, Power and Maintenance. In any production department, the job in process is wholly completed before the next job is started. The company operates on a fiscal year, which ends September 30. Following is the post-closing trial balance as of September 30: Additional information: The balance of the materials account represents the following: The company uses the FIFO method of accounting for all inventories. Material A is used in the Stamping Department, and materials B and C are used in the Plating Department. The balance of the work in process account represents the following costs that are applicable to Job 905. (The customer’s order is for 1,000 units of the finished product.) The finished goods account reflects the cost of Job 803, which was finished at the end of the preceding month and is awaiting delivery orders from the customer. At the beginning of the year, factory overhead application rates were based on the following data: In October, the following transactions were recorded: Purchased the following materials and supplies on account: The following materials were issued to the factory: Customers’ orders covered by Jobs 1001 and 1002 are for 1,000 and 500 units of finished product, respectively.
