Lighting..................₦2925

Rent......................₦2640

The expenses are for three different product:

Zema, Zeta and Zera. They are appointed on the basis of population. 4500 units of the products are produced, out of which 1260 and 2060 units are for zema and zeta respectively.

Find the salary charged to Zera product?

Answer Details
To calculate the salary charged to the Zera product, we need to first find the proportion of the total production that is allocated to Zera. Total production = 4500 units Production allocated to Zema = 1260 units Production allocated to Zeta = 2060 units Production allocated to Zera = Total production - Production allocated to Zema - Production allocated to Zeta Production allocated to Zera = 4500 - 1260 - 2060 Production allocated to Zera = 1180 units Now, we need to allocate the total salary expenses to the three products based on their production proportion. Total salary expenses = ₦4050 Proportion of salary expenses for Zema = (1260/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1134 Proportion of salary expenses for Zeta = (2060/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1860 Proportion of salary expenses for Zera = (1180/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1056 Therefore, the salary charged to the Zera product is ₦1056. Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
