The cost behavior patterns below are lettered A through H. The vertical axes of the graphs represent total dollars of expense, and the horizontal axes represent production in units, machine hours, or direct labor hours. In each case, the zero point is at the intersection of the two axes. Each graph may be used no more than once. Required: Select the graph that matches the lettered cost described here. a. Depreciation of equipmentthe amount of depreciation charged is computed based on the number of machine hours that the equipment was operated. b. Electricity billflat fixed charge, plus a variable cost after a certain number of kilowatt hours are used. c. City water billcomputed as follows: d. Depreciation of equipmentthe amount is computed by the straight-line method. e. Rent on a factory building donated by the citythe agreement calls for a fixed fee payment, unless 200,000 labor hours are worked, in which case no rent need be paid. f. Salaries of repair workersone repair worker is needed for every 1,000 machine hours or less (i.e., 0 to 1,000 hours requires one repair worker, 1,001 to 2,000 hours requires two repair workers, etc.).

Henry Company has established the following standards for the costs of one unit of its product. Thestandard production overhead costs per unit are based on direct-labor hours. Calculation for standard perunit cost is as follows:Std Cost Std Qty Std Price/RateDirect Material $ 14.40 6.00 kg $ 2.40 per kgDirect Labor $ 3.00 0.40 hour $ 7.50 per hourVariable Overhead $ 4.00 0.40 hour $ 10.00 per hourFixed Overhead* $ 4.80 0.40 hour $ 12.00 per hourTotal $ 26.20*based on practical capacity of 2,500 direct-labor hour per monthDuring December 2020, Henry purchased 30,000 kg of direct material at a total cost of $75,000. The totalwages for December were $20,000, 75% of which were for direct labor. Henry manufactured 4,500 unitsof product during December 2020, using 28,000kg of the direct material purchased in December and2,100 direct-labor hours. Actual variable and fixed overhead cost were $23,100 and $25,000, respectively.The scheduled production for the month was 5,000…
Using simple regression to estimate factory overhead, an internal auditor finds that the line of best fit intersects at the y-axis at $5,000 for overhead allocation. The slope of the line is 0.30. The dependent variable, represented by factory wages, amounts to $900,000 for the month. What is the estimated amount of factory overhead to be allocated for the month?
