Blanton Company wishes to allocate rent expense of $24,000 to its three operating departments, A, B, and C. Assuming the three departments occupy 10,000, 20,000 and 30,000 square feet respectively, the cost allocation rate for Department C is $0.80 per square foot.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Allocation rate = Total cost to be allocated ÷ Cost driver (allocation base)
Allocation rate = $24,000 ÷ [(10,000 sq. ft. + 20,000 sq. ft. + 30,000 sq. ft.) = $0.40 per sq. ft.
