Answer:A. LN, JQ, RQ
Explanation:
To know the current profitability, we need to determine the contribution margin unit by the minutes on the constraints .
a) For LN
Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit
$ 161.88 -$116.12 = $45.76
Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint
= $45.76/ 2.60 = 17.60
B) For JQ
Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit
$ 350.41 -$279.11 = $71.3
Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint
= $71.3/ 4.60 = 15.50
c) For RQ
Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit
$ 446.71 -$338.71 = $108
Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint
= $108/ 7.50 = 14.40
In order of their current profitability from most profitable to least profitable, We have LN with 17.60, next JQ with 15.50 and the least RQ with 14.40
Answer:
As the gross profit is the same for both products It is better to choose Product A because Product Z needs further processing a day , so time can also be the constraint.
Explanation:
Process Cost of Product A = $ 8000
Sale of Product A= $ 22,500
Gross Profit For A= $ 14,500
Process Cost of Product Z= $ 8000 + $4200= $ 12,200
Sale of Product Z= $ 26,700
Gross Profit For Z= $ 14,500
The gross profit for both products is same but product Z requires additional day for further processing so it is better to choose Product A.
Answer:
1 year rate 2 year from now = 12% (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
1-year rate = 8%
2-year rate = 9%
3-year rate = 10%
Computation:
According to Pure Expectations Hypothesis,
(1 + 3-year rate)³ = (1 + 2-year rate)² (1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)
(1.10)³ = (1 + 1.09)²(1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)
1.331 = 1.1881 (1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)
(1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now) = 1.12
1 year rate 2 year from now = 0.12
1 year rate 2 year from now = 12% (Approx)
