Required:
What was the cost of service to provide one haircut?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Cost of service to provide one haircut is $ 11.04

Explanation:

Hair saloon expense: $500

Building rent expense: $1,458

Utilities expense: $200

Depreciation expense --- Equipment: $50

Total operating cost = Hair saloon expense + Building rent expense + Utilities expense + Depreciation expense

= $500 + $1,458 + $200 + $50

= $ 2,208

Total hair cuts = 200

Therefore, cost per hair cut = Total operating cost ÷ Total hair cuts

= $2,208 ÷ $200

=  $ 11.04
