992 candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue.

<h3>What is revenue?</h3>
  • The total amount of income generated by the sale of goods and services related to the primary operations of the business is referred to as revenue in accounting.
  • Commercial revenue is also known as sales or turnover.
  • Some businesses make money by charging interest, royalties, or other fees.

To find how many candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue:

The price of a candy bar is determined by the quantity sold:

  • p(x) = 124 - (x/16) where x is in 1000s.

If the candy bar's price is p(x), the revenue function is:

  • R(x) = p(x) · x = 124 · x - x²/16

Find the solution of R'(x) = 0 to maximize R(x):

  • R'(x) = 124 - x/8
  • 124 -  x/8 = 0
  • x = 992

Therefore, 992 candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue.

Depreciation by Three Methods; Partial Years
Daniel [21]

Answer:

a. Straight-line method.  

Year         Depreciation expense ($)

  1                           10,530

  2                          14,040

  3                          14,040

  4                            3,510

b. Units-of-production method.  

Year           Depreciation expense ($)

 1                               7,800

 2                             14,950

 3                             12,350

 4                              7,020

c. Double-declining balance method

Year   Depreciation expense ($)

  1                              21,735

 2                              14,490

 3                               4,830

 4                               1,065

Explanation:

(a) the straight-line method

Note: See part a of the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for Straight-line method.

In the attached excel file, the depreciation rate used for the Straight-line method is calculated as follows:

Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 3 = 0.3333, or 33.33%

(b) units-of-output method

Note: See part b of the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for units-of-production method.

(c) the double-declining-balance method.

Note: See part c of the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for double-declining-balance method.

In the attached excel file, the depreciation rate used for the Double- declining-balance method is calculated as follows:

Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = (1/3) * 2 = 0.666667, or 66.6667%

Note:

Under this double-declining-balance method, the depreciation expenses for Year 4 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $1,350 from the Year 4 Beginning depreciable amount (i.e. $2,415 - $1,350 = $1,065). The residual value of $1,350 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 4.
