Homework Answers
| Let the total cost of Administration and Accounting be x and y |
| x | = | $ 353000 + 36y/136 | (i) | ||
| y | = | $ 143000 + 28x/100 | (ii) | ||
| Putting the value of x in equation (ii), we get | |||||
| y | = | $ 143000 + 28/100($ 353000 + 36y/136) | |||
| y | = | $ 143000 + $ 98840 + 0.074118y | |||
| 0.925882y | = | $ 241840 | |||
| y | = | $ 261199 | |||
| Now, x | = | $ 353000 + [(36 x $ 261199) / 136] | |||
