Jamison Construction has implemented a cost estimation system using regression analysis. The variable cost per hour of labor is $37 and the fixed cost was determined to be $253,000. If Jamison projects it will be working 129,000 hours in 2019, what is the projected total cost?
Ans.
| Total cost | Variable cost + Fixed cost |
Fixed Cost = $253,000
Variable Cost
Variable Cost = Projected No. of Hours × Cost Per Hour
Variable Cost = 129,000 × $ 37 = $4,773,000
Projected Total Cost
Total Cost = $ 4,773,000 + $ 253,000 = $5,026,000
| PROJECTED TOTAL COST | $ 5,026,000 |

An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. By collecting data on volume and cost and using the least squares method to develop an estimated regression equation relating volume and cost, an accountant can estimate the cost associated with a particular manufacturing volume. Consider the following sample of production volumes and total cost data for a manufacturing operation.a. Compute b1 and bo (to 2 decimals if necessary) Complete the estimated regression equation (to 2 decimals...
