Both transportation and assignment problems are members of a category of lp problems called network flow problems

<h3>What is network flow problems?</h3>

Network flow problems are a type of combinatorial optimization problem in which the input is a flow network (a graph with numerical capacities on its edges) and the goal is to construct a flow with numerical values on each edge that respect the capacity constraints and have incoming flow.

A company, for example, may want to ship packages from Los Angeles to New York City by using trucks to transport between intermediate cities. If the route connecting two cities only has one truck and each truck has a maximum load, the graph describing the transportation options will be a flow network.

Market equilibrium Consider the demand function of tofu given by Qd = 150 – 10p + 5pb and the supply function of tofu given by Q

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

a) Qs = 50 + 20p - 7ps

= 50 + 20p - 7×(2)

= 50 + 20p - 14

= 36 + 20p

At equilibrium, $Q_{d}$ = $Q_{s}$

So, 150 - 10p + 5 $p_{b}$ = 36 + 20p

So, 20p + 10p = 30p

= 150 - 36 + 5 $p_{b}$

= 114 + 5 $p_{b}$

So, p = (114/30) + (5/30) $p_{b}$

= 3.8 + 0.17 $p_{b}$

Thus, $p_{e}$ = 3.8 + 0.17 $p_{b}$

Q = 36 + 20p

= 36 + 20(3.8 + 0.17 $p_{b}$ )

= 36 + 76 + 3.4 $p_{b}$

= 112 + 3.4 $p_{b}$

Thus, $Q_{e}$ = 112 + 3.4 $p_{b}$

b) $p_{e}$ = 3.8 + 0.17 $p_{b}$

= 3.8 + 0.17×(5)

= 3.8 + .85

= 4.65

$Q_{e}$ = 112 + 3.4 $_{b}$

= 112 + 3.4(5)

= 112 + 17

= 129

c) Qd = 150 - 10p + 5pb = 150 - 10(2.5) + 5(5) = 150 - 25 + 25 = 150

Qs = 36 + 20p = 36 + 20(2.5) = 36 + 50 = 86

Thus, there is excess demand as $Q_{d}$ > $Q_{s}$

d) New $Q_{d}$ = 180 - 10p + 5 $p_{b}$

= 180 - 10p + 5×(5)

= 180 - 10p + 25

= 205 - 10p

Now, new $Q_{d}$ = $Q_{s}$ gives,

205 - 10p = 36 + 20p

So, 20p + 10p = 205 - 36

So, 30p = 169

So, p = 169÷30

So, $p_{e}$ = 5.63

Q = 205 - 10p = 205 - 10×(5.63) = 205 - 56.3 = 148.7

So, $Q_{e}$ = 148.7

Ikerd Company applies manufacturing overhead to jobs on the basis of machine hours used. Overhead costs are estimated to total $

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. $2.40 per Machine hour

B. Underapplied = $10,000

C. cost of goods sold (debit) $10,000 , overheads (credit) $10,000

Explanation:

A) Compute the manufacturing overhead rate for the year

Overhead Rate = Total Fixed Overheads / Budgeted Activity

= $300,000 / 125,000 Machine hours

= $2.40 per Machine hour.

B) What is the amount of under- or over applied overhead at December 31st?

Under Applied Overheads = Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads

Over Applied Overheads = Actual Overheads < Applied Overheads

Actual Overheads = $322,000

Applied Overheads = $2.40 × 130,000 hours = $ 312,000

Underapplied = $10,000

C) Prepare the adjusting entry to assign the under- or overapplied overhead for the year to cost of goods sold.

cost of goods sold (debit) $10,000

overheads (credit) $10,000

Bernice’s has $823,000 in sales. The profit margin is 4.2 percent and the firm has 7,500 shares of stock outstanding. The market

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

a. 3.58

Explanation:

the price earning ratio is obtain with the following formula:

$\frac{Market \: Price}{EPS}$

We are given with the market price, now we need to solve for the EPS

with sales and profit margin we solve for net income. then we divide by the shares outstanding to get the EPS

823,000 sales x 4.2 profit margin = 34.566‬ net income

now we solve for EPS Earning per share:

$\frac{Income}{Shares}\\\frac{34,566}{7,500} = 4.6088‬$

Now we can sovle for price-earnings ratio

$\frac{Market \: Price}{EPS}$

16.50/4.61 = 3,5791 = 3.58
