$19,200 If the $64,000 is to be allocated on the basis of the number of employees, then let's see how many employees we have. The large department has 1,120 employees and the small department has 480. It would make sense to allocate the same amount of cash per employee, so we have 1,120 + 480 = 1,600 total employees. So the amount per employee is $64,000 / 1,600 = $40 per employee. So the amount allocated to the small department should be: $40 * 480 = $19,200 So $19,200 is the amount to allocate to the small department.
