development courses for executives. The bonus is based on revenues from courses that are
being run, subject to a maximum amount each year. Which graph best represents the behavior
of this cost?

The coefficient of determination for Armer’s regression equation for the maintenance
activities is
- Response: .99724
Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, 420 maintenance hours in a
month mean that maintenance costs should be budgeted to the nearest dollar at
- Response: $3,746
Using the high-low method to estimate cost behavior, 420 maintenance hours in a month
would mean the maintenance costs would be budgeted at:
- 3,720
If Armer Company uses the high-low method of analysis, the equation for the
relationship between hours of activity and maintenance cost follows:
- y = 570 + 9.0 x
- Y - 106 + 6.3 x
The percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation is
- 99.724%
At 400 hours of activity, Armer management can be approximately two-
thirds confident that the maintenance costs will be in the range of
- 3,586.18 to 3,613.93
- 3,565.54 to 3,634.48
What is the variable cost per hour using the high low method to estimate
the cost equation?
- 7.50
What is the fixed cost per month using the high low method to estimate
the cost equation?
- 570

Strong Company applies overhead based on machine hours. At the beginning of 20x1, the company
estimated that manufacturing overhead would be 500,000, and machine hours would total 20, 000. By
20x1 year − end, actual overhead totaled 525,000, and actual machine hours were 25,000. On the basis
of this information, the 20x1 predetermined overhead rate was:
- $25 per machine hour.
Song, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at
22,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged 33.40 per hour.When
