The controller estimates that direct materials costs are$45 per unit and that direct labor costs are$21 per hour. Estimating overhead, which is applied on the basis of direct labor costs, is difficult. The controller's office estimated overhead costs at $3,600 for fixed costs and $18 per unit for variable costs. Your colleague, Lance, who graduated from a rival school, has already done the analysis and reports the "correct" cost equation as follows: Overhead cost = $10,600 + $16.05 per unit Lance also reports that the correlation coefficient for the regression is .82 and says, "With 82 percent of the variation in overhead explained by the equation, it certainly should be adopted as the best basistot estimating costs." When asked for the data used to generate the regression, Lance produces the following: Month Overhead Unit Production $57,144 60,756 77,040 3,048 3,248 4,176 3 4. 56,412 81,396 72,252…arrow_forwardState an example of a "SMART" objective and explain why it is a "SMART" objective.arrow_forward
