To calculate the overhead rate, we need to derive the ratio of total indirect costs to direct labor costs. Overhead rate = Indirect Cost / Direct labor cost. Total estimated overhead costs are calculated as $2,900,000 + $800,000, amounting to $3,700,000. Thus, the overhead rate is $3,700,000 divided by $80,000, yielding an overhead rate of 46.25. Consequently, the overhead rate for K company is 46.25.
Answer:The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.65
The multiplier or k = 2.85714 rounded to 2.86
Explanation:
The MPC pertains to the fraction of additional disposable income that consumers choose to spend. It is used to gauge the consumption increase driven by rising income.
MPC can be calculated as follows,
MPC = Change in consumption / change in income
MPC = 0.65 / 1
MPC = 0.65
To derive the multiplier, we apply this formula,
Multiplier or k = 1 / (1 - MPC)
k = 1 / (1 - 0.65)
k = 2.85714 rounded to 2.86
45.7mL/s = 45.7(3600)mL/(3600)s
= 164520mL/3600s
= 164520mL/hr
= 0.16452kL/hr
