Required Use four decimal places (e.g., 33.3333\%) in your calculations. What is the amount of maintenance and utilities department costs distributed to producing departments A and B for June using (1) the direct method, (2) the step method (maintenance department first), and (3) the reciprocal method? 7-39 Departmental Cost Allocation Data Performance, a computer software consulting company, has three major functional areas: computer programming, information systems consulting, and software training.
