Answer:
(a) 0.0085 rugs per dollar.
(b) 0.0069 rugs per dollar.
Explanation:
We have been given that Hokey Min's Kleen Karpet cleaned 75 rugs in October, consuming the following resources: Labor: 520 hours at $17 per hour.
(a) To find the labor productivity per dollar, we will divide number of rugs by amount spent on labor.
Therefore, the labor productivity is 0.0085 rugs per dollar.
(b) To find the multi-factor productivity, we will divide number of rugs by total cost or expenses.
Therefore, the multi-factor productivity is 0.0069 rugs per dollar.

Answer:
0.9; 100 million; 90 million; 2,143
Explanation:
The new fuel's price change has a standard deviation that is 50% greater than price changes in gasoline futures prices.
So, if standard deviation of future prices is taken as '1' then for spot price it will be 50% higher, i.e 1.5
The hedge ratio:
= Correlation × (standard deviation of spot price ÷ Standard deviation of future prices)
= 0.6 × (1.5 ÷ 1)
= 0.9
The company has an exposure of 100 million gallons of the new fuel.
Gallons in future gasoline:
= Hedge ratio × 100 million gallons of the new fuel
= 0.9 × 100
= 90 million
Each contract is on 42,000 gallons, then
Number of gasoline futures contracts should be traded:
= 90,000,000 ÷ 42,000
= 2,142.9 or 2,143
