Explanation:

The question is:

1. What is the service department charge rate for Graphics Production?

a.$10.00

b.$2.00

c.$0.50

d.$6.66

The service department charge for Graphics Production will be calculated by dividing the cost of graphic production by the total number of copies that are made. This will be:

= $200000/(20000 + 30000 + 50000)

= $200,000 / 100,000

= $2 per copy

2. How much service department cost will be allocated to the Micro Division?

a.$200,000

b.$145,000

c.$345,000

d.$60,000

The service department cost that is allocated to the Micro Division will be calculated as:

= [20000 x ($200000/100000)] + [700 x ($500000/2000)] + [130 x ($400000/400)]

= (20000 × 2) + (700 × 250) + (130 × 1000)

= $40000 + $175000 + $130000

= $345000
