Use thisinformation to project the monthly operating costs for a month in which the companyperforms 3,400 oil changes.S6-8 Use the high-low method (Learning Objective 4)Based on last month's records, Vochelle produced 44,000 bars of chocolate with a totalmanufacturing cost of $120,000. Vochelle also has past records of total manufacturingcost being $100,000 when it produced 36,000 bars of chocolate. If Vochelle produces40,000 bars of chocolate next month, what is the expected total manufacturing cost usingthe high-low method?S6-9 Use the high-low method (Learning Objective 4)Sun Inn Hotel rents a photocopy machine. The company is charged a fixed annual rentalfee and a per-copy charge. If the company makes 8,000 copies per month, the over-all per-copy cost is estimated to be $0.16. If 6,000 copies are made in a month, it isestimated that the cost per copy is $0.19.1. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable rate per copy and the annualrental fee.2. If 9,000 copies were made in a month, compute the total cost.

Hi student Since there are multiple questions, we will answer only first question.

S6-7 Use the high-low method (Learning Objective 4) Refer to the Jones Oil and Lube data in S6-6. Use the high-low method to determine the variable and fixed cost components of Jones Oil and Lube's operating costs. Use this information to project the monthly operating costs for a month in which the company performs 3,400 oil changes.

10-36 Cost estimation, incremental unit-time learning model. Assume the same information for the Blue Seas Company as in Problem 10-35 with one exception. This exception is that Blue Seas uses a 90% incremental unit-time learning model as a basis for predicting direct manufacturing labor-hours in its assembling operations. (A 90% learning curve means b = −0.152004.) Prepare a prediction of the total costs for producing the six PT109s for the Navy. If you solved requirement 1 of Problem 10-35, compare your cost prediction there with the one you made here. Why are the predictions different? How should Blue Seas decide which model it should use?
Requirement 1. Calculate the total variable costs of producing 2, 3, and 4 units assuming that Northern Defense uses an 85% incremental unit-time learning model as a basis for predicting manufacturing labor-hours. Begin by calculating the cumulative total time in labor-hours using the incremental unit-time learning model. (Round the individual unit time for Xth unit to the nearest whole number) Individual unit time for Cumulative total time: Cumulative number of units 1 2 Xth unit: Labor-hours Labor-hours 3 Data table Direct materials cost Direct manufacturing labor time for first unit Learning curve for manufacturing labor time per radar system Variable manufacturing overhead costs $ 83,000 per unit of RS-32 Direct manufacturing labor costs "Using the formula for an 85% learning curve, b= In 0.85 In 2 -0.162519 0.693147 3,900 direct manufacturing labor-hours 85% incremental unit-time" 20 per direct manufacturing labor-hour 12 per direct manufacturing labor-hour =-0.234465
Learning curve, cumulative average-time learning model. Northern Defense manufactures radar systems. It has just completed the manufacture of its first newly designed system, RS-32. Manufacturing data for the RS-32 follow: Calculate the total variable costs of producing 2, 4, and 8 units.
Life Force Fitness, Inc., assembles and sells treadmills. Activity-based product information for each treadmill is as follows: ETT Activity-Base Usage (hrs. per unit) Activity Rate per Hour Activity Motor assembly Activity Cost $30.00 1.50 $20 Final assembly Testing 1.00 18 18.00 0.25 22 5.50 Rework 0.40 22 8.80 Moving Activity cost per unit 3.00 $65.30 0.20 15 All of the activity costs are related to labor. Management must remove $2.00 of activity cost from the product in order to remain competitive. Rework involves disassembling and repairing a unit that fails testing. Not all units require rework, but the average is 0.40 hour per unit. Presently, the testing is done on the completed assembly; but much of the rework has been related to motors, which can be tested independently prior to adding the motor to the treadmill during final assembly. Thus, motor issues can be diagnosed and solved without having to disassemble the complete treadmill. This change will reduce the average rework…
6-XYZ Co has observed that 80% learning curve ratio applies to all labour related costs each time a new model enters production. It is anticipated that 640 units will be manufactured during 2020. Direct labour cost for the first lot of 10 units amounts to RO 14,000 at RO 14 per hour. Variable overhead cost is assigned to products at the rate of RO 3 per direct labour hour. You are required to determine average labour cost of first 80 units. a. OMR 918.54 b. OMR 1134 c. OMR 10200.6 d. None of the given options
