Employing flexible budgeting techniques, prepare a report that shows budgeted amounts, actual cost, and monthly variation for April
Explain briefly the basis of your budget figure for outside repairs

Assumptions
15 automobile in the pool
 25,000 miles per year / automobile
 25 miles per gallon / automobile
 $1.20 per gallon of gas
 $0.0015 per mile for oil, repairs, parts and supplies
 $300 per automobile in outside repairs 

Supporting Calculations
Gasoline =

31,250 miles
25 mile/gal.

Oil, minor repairs .. =
Outside repairs =
Insurance:

x 1.20 per gallon = $1,500

21,250 miles x $015 per mile = $469

300 per auto x 16 autos
12 months

Annual cost for one auto =
=

= $400

$18,000 / 15 autos
$1,200 per auto

Annual cost for 16 autos = $16 x 1,200 = $19,200
Monthly Cost =

Depreciation:

19,200/12 = $1,600

Annual depreciation per auto =

$66,000/15 = $4,400/auto

Annual depreciation for 16 auto = $4,400/auto x 16 = $70,400
70,400
Monthly depreciation =
= $5,867

    Linda Kerber described the predicaments of the Federalists, a political party whose members feared that popular democracy might spin out of control. Although they both fostered economic development, the Federalists were aware that an urban grassroots would result. The believers of the Federalist Party believed that Jefferson’s approach to politics was naïve. The early stages of industrialization and urban growth were providing the ingredients of a working class; already existing was an unpredictable class of permanently poor who might well be available for mob action. The God or the religious beliefs of the Federalists often appeared to behave like a fourth branch of Government. They believed that religious obligation would reinforce moral obligation and would make popular government orderly and stable. On the other hand the Jeffersonian supporters felt they should break down the barrier of habitual morality (religion), with the interruption of education, habit and superstitions they were confident they would have a more positive vice.…
