b. 62%
Explanation:
a. Janitorial costs are allocated based on square feet.
Assembly Department Square feet = 42,560
Total area for both departments = 42,560 + 33,440 = $76,000
Percentage of costs
= 42,560/ 76,000
= 56%
b. Security costs are allocated based on asset value.
Cutting Department Asset Value = $126,480
Total asset value for both departments = 77,520 + 126,480 = $204,000
Percentage of costs
= 126,480/ 204,000
= 62%
