B) $120,000.
C) $126,000.
D) $110,000.

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Segment A Segment B Segment C

Sales $500,000 $300,000 $200,000

Traceable operating expenses 250,000 120,000 90,000

Profit= 250,000  180,000  110,000  = 540,000

Allocable costs for the year was $180,000.

First, we need to allocate costs to Segment B:

Segment B= 180,000/540,000= 0.33

Allocate= 0.33*180,000= 60,000

Now, we can calculate the profit:

Segment B profit= 180,000 - 60,000= 120,000

the answer is b hope you pass

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"
