Time on Network (hours Large Small 100,000 80.000 120,000 330,000Explanation / Answer
Allocation Rate using single rate method based on number of calls
= Common Costs / Total Number of calls
= $4500000 / (100000+80000)
= $4500000 / 180000
= $25
Correct Option is $25
Common costs based on number of calls = $2700000
Number of calls of large box division = 100000
Total Number of calls = 100000+80000 = 180000
Common Costs based on network time = $4500000-$2700000= $1800000
Network time of large box division = 120000
Total network time = 120000+330000 = 450000
Total Communication network costs allocated to the large box division
= (2700000*100000/180000) + (1800000*120000/450000)
= $1500000 + $480000
= $1980000
Correct Option is $1980000
