Answer:

d.120,000/190,000

Explanation:

It is given that Fairfield Company is constructing building department (P1 and P2) in the space provided and it allocates the common Personnel Department cost that is based on number of employees.

From the table given in the question, we can find

The ratio representing the portion of the building cost allocated to the department P1 = [tex]$\frac{120,000}{(120,000+70,000)}$[/tex]

The ratio representing the portion of the building cost allocated to the department P1 = [tex]$\frac{120,000}{190,000}$[/tex]
