What will be an ideal response?


a. $8,000 = $20,000 × 40%
b. $12,000 = $20,000 × 60%
c. 70% = 100% ? 30%
d. $8,400 = $12,000 ? $3,600
e. 60% = $27,000/$45,000
f. 40% = 100% ? 60%
g. $18,000 = $45,000 ? $27,000
h. $25,000 = $10,000/40%
i. 60% = 100% ? 40%
j. $15,000 = $25,000 ? $10,000
k. $15,000 = $9,000 + $6,000
l. 60% = $9,000/$15,000
m. 40% = 100% ? 60%
n. $18,000 = $13,500/75% (see o)
o. 75% = 100% ? 25%
p. $4,500 = $18,000 × 25%
q. 30% = 100% ? 70%
r. $3,500 = $5,000 ? $1,500

Activity proportion × Total cost = Activity cost. Total cost = Sum of activity costs.
