The store rent should be allocated to Department 2 is $18,430

Explanation:

For calculating the allocation of rent in Department 2. Following computation is required which is shown below:

1. First we have to calculate Total floor space Square feet value which is equals to

= Department 1 +  Department 2 +  Department 3

= 24,000 + 11,800 + 34,000

= 69,800

Thus, the total floor space is 69,800

Now calculate the per square rent which = total rent ÷ total square feet

= $109,000 ÷ 69,800

= 1.56 per square rent

After that, multiply the per square rent with department 2 floor space

= 11,800 × 1.56

= $18,430

Thus, the store rent should be allocated to Department 2 is $18,430
