Answer:

Explanation:

a. cycle time = Total time available/ production rate required

cycle time = (60*60)/180 = 3600/180 = 20sec per unit

b. theoretical minimum for the number of work-stations that Rosenberg can achieve in this assembly line.

Total task time = 12+15+8+5+20 = 60

theoretical minimum for the number of work-stations = Total task time/cycle time

theoretical minimum for the number of work-stations = 60/20 = 3stations

c. idle time

standard hour for the job is calculated as

standard hours allowed for actual production = unit produced * labor time required

The question does not contain the required information to solve it. Information such standard hours is not given.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

$4,522

Explanation:

As the restaurant is not acquired so the amount of $28,000 would be non-deductible

Also if the expenses is incurred so the maximum deduction allowed is in excess of $50,000 is $5,000

Now

= $51,000 - $50,000

= $1,000 reduction

And,  

= $5,000 - $1,000

= $4,000 deduction

Now

= $51,000 - $4,000

= $47,000

Now

= $47,000 ÷ 180 months

= $261 × 2 months

= 522

Now total deduction is

= $4,000 + $522

= $4,522

Allushta [10]

Answer: The answer is e. $215,000.

Explanation: Based on the information provided in the question, see the cash flows statement below:

XYZ Cash Flows Statement

Net income                                                         $180,000

Increase in account receivable                           (15,000)

Increase in accounts payable                              50,000

Cash flows from operating activities             $215,000

  • Note that the purchase of equipment of $50,000 cash would not be considered under cash flows from operating activities but would rather be considered under cash flows from investing activities.
  • Increase in accounts receivable means outflow of cash while increase in accounts payable means non-payment of debt, that is, inflow of cash.

The industrial organization (I/O) model of above-average returns:
lara [203]

Answer:

The answer is A) Puts emphasis on the external environment, which plays a role in determining a company´s ability to achieve above-average returns.

Explanation:

The I/O Model of Above-Average Returns basically assumes that the industry in which a company decides to compete in has a much larger influence on performance (earnings and profit) than the choices the managers of this company make.

The basic assumptions of this organization model are:

  • The external environment imposes pressures and constraints that determine the strategies of the company and will result in above average returns.
  • It assumes competing companies control similar strategically relevant resources and pursue similar strategies.
  • Resources are highly mobile across companies, so that any differences that might develop between companies will be short-lived.
  • Decision-makers within the company are assumed to be rational and committed to acting in the company´s profit-maximizing behaviors.
