As cargo costs vary with the freight moved they are calculated as a product of Cargo costs per ton, as stated above, and the capacity for each of the vessels, i.e. for Tashtego 1,43*3950 + 1,43*3150 = 10.153,00 and for the large vessel 1,43*6850 + 1,43*3150 = 14.300,00.

c. Explain how the location of each curve graphed in question 7b would be altered if (1) total fixed cost had been $100

3. Describe two methods that you can use to calculate postage charges for mail and / or packages. [2.3]

3. For each of the individual overhead accounts at Bridgeton, do you believe the given cost is variable, fixed, or something else? Why? (Use information or evidence from the case to support your evaluation, if possible.

According to this method, every unit of the product is assigned all direct, fixed, and variable costs. This method includes the cost of direct materials and labor as well as a portion of the overhead costs associated with it in the final costing of every unit of the product.

3) Using the budget Data, what was the total expected cost per unit if all manufacturing and shipping overhead (both variable and fixed) were allocate to planned production? What was the actual cost per unit of production and shipping?

b. Use your answer to part A to determine the total annual indirect cost assigned to:
