The managers of Conch, Inc. want to determine the most accurate allocation of support department costs to operating departments. To make this allocation, the accounting department has collected the following data: $\begin{array}{llll}&&\text { Services Provided By }\\& \underline{\text { Computer}}&& \underline{\text { Cafeteria} }\\\text { Direct costs } & \$ 55,000 & & \$ 35,000 \\\text { Service provided to: } \\\quad \text { Computer department }&-- & & 15 \%\\ \text { Cafeteria } & 10 \% & &-- \\\text { Operating department 1 } & 50 \% & & 40 \% \\\text { Operating department 1 } & 40 \% & & 45 \%\\\end{array}$

If the reciprocal method is used, the equation representing the total cost of the cafeteria is:

A) Cafeteria = $35,000
B) Cafeteria = $35,000 + (0.15 × computer cost)
C) Cafeteria = $35,000 + (0.10 × computer cost)
D) Cafeteria = $35,000 + 0.10 × ($55,000 + 0.10 × computer costs)
