given the building layout for store a, store b, store c, and store d, what portion of the shared $6000 security costs should be apportioned to store d? apportioned cost = $?
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate total area
Total area = (2500 + 1250+625 + 625=5000) square feet.
Step2: Find proportion of Store D
Proportion of Store D = (\frac{625}{5000}).
Step3: Calculate apportioned cost
Apportioned cost for Store D = (6000\times\frac{625}{5000}) [ \begin{align*} 6000\times\frac{625}{5000}&=\frac{6000\times625}{5000}\ &=\frac{6000}{5000}\times625\ & = 1.2\times625\ &=750 \end{align*} ]
Answer:
(750)
