Required information. Problem 6-42 Continuation of Preceding Problem; Computing Least-Squares Regression Estimates; Comparing Multiple Methods (Appendix) (LO 6-1, 6-2, 6-5, 6-6, 6-9) [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Martha's Vineyard Marine Supply is a wholesaler for a large variety of boating and fishing equipment. The company's controller, Mathew Knight, has recently completed a cost study of the firm's material-handling department in which he used work measurement to quantify the department's activity. The control factor unit used in the work-measurement study was hundreds of pounds of equipment unloaded or loaded at the company's loading dock. Knight compiled the following data. Month January February March April May June July August September October November December Units of Activity (hundreds of pounds of equipment loaded or unloaded) 3,100 Problem 6-42 Part 2 2,900 2,600 2,300 3,500 3,700 3,300 3,100 3,900 2,400 2,500 2,700 Material Handling Department Costs $13,000 12,600 11,900 11,500. 12,400 14,500 13,300 12,700 13,600 11,700 12,650 12,650 2.
