When they were delivered, Milwaukee paid freight charges of $20,000 and handling fees of $15,000. Site preparation for these cells cost $45,000. Six foreman, each earning $20 an hour, worked five 40 hour weeks to set up and test the manufacturing cells. Special wiring and other materials applicable to the new manufacturing cells cost $3,500. Determine the cost basis (amount to be capitalized) for these cells. (This amount will be used for depreciation purposes).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q3. \u00a0A firm has the capacity to produce 1,000,000 units of a product each year.
