maker.

True False

7. The only purpose of cost information is to determine the individual product cost on a per unit
basis in order to value inventory.

True False

8. "Beginning Balance (BB) plus Transfers Out (TO) equals Ending Balance (EB) plus Transfers In

(TI)".

True False

9. The Transfers In (TI) costs in the basic cost flow model of a manufacturing firm are direct

materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.

True False

prior period's allocation base (i.e., activity level).

True False

13. Overestimating a period's allocation base will understate the predetermined overhead rate.

True False

14. Regression analysis can be used to estimate the strength of the relationship between a cost and
potential allocation bases for that cost.

True False

15. The two-stage cost allocation process allocates costs to multiple cost pools and then to individual

cost objects using different allocation bases.

True False

16. If a company has three cost pools, it should have three different cost allocation bases.

True False

"The leaves of the flower, as you call them, are called the corolla; and the
green envelope, which in your flower is shaped like a cup, is the calyx, while
the slender parts in the centre are the stamens. And the one exactly in the
middle is the pistil. Sometimes there are more pistils than one. Each division
of the calyx is called a sepal, and each division of the corolla is a petal. Now
you have quite a number of new names to-day to remember. What is the
outside envelope?"

"Calyx," said Ella promptly, the boys chiming in a little behind time.

"And the separate parts of the calyx?"

"Sepals," said all together.

"Now the colored part of the flower?"

"The whole is the corolla, and the parts or divisions are petals."

"Correct."

"But, mamma!" exclaimed Bennie, "my flower has no green part on the
outside. Do not all flowers have a calyx?"

"Some do not; but in the case of the poppy, the calyx falls off as the corolla
expands. Notice the bud which you have, the calyx is just ready to fall off."

"I see," said Bennie, and the rest examined the bud which he passed around.

"Now notice that in the pink the sepals are united in one piece, forming a cup,
while the petals are separate. Some flowers have united petals. Those we call
monopetalous, and those like the pink we call polypetalous. The sepals, calyx
and corolla taken together, are sometimes called the perianth. I do not
remember if I told you that the root, stem and leaves are the organs of
vegetation while the flower, fruit and seed are the organs of reproduction. Now
the calyx and corolla are only the protecting parts, while the essential organs
are the stamens and pistils. If you can remember all this, with all the new
names, you will do well for to-day, and next time we will talk about the
stamens and pistils. Just one thing more, you notice that as you pull out one
of the petals of the pink there is a long, narrow part running down into the
deep cup. We call that the claw of the petal. Now see if you can find all these
organs in other flowers, and give them their names."

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend


considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe
and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating
the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project
Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may
be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to,
incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a
copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or
damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer

discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it,

from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must
return the medium with your written explanation. The person or entity
that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide a
replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work

Section 2. Information about the Mission of


Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.
It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and
donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the


assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a
secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help,
see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org.

Section 4. Information about Donations to


the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can
be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the
widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small
donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax
exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating


charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and
keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in
locations where we have not received written confirmation of
compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of
compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where


we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no
prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in
such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make


any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of
other ways including checks, online payments and credit card
donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project


Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed


editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,


including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how
to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
