The results are inconclusive; Therefore a generalization cannot be made regarding which option is selected more often.

What is generalization and why is it important?

The ability to carry out a task, engage in an activity, or exhibit behavior in many contexts, with various people, and at various times is known as generalization. We have "generalized" the necessary skills, which explains why we can carry out routine tasks in a range of contexts and settings.

How can generalization be improved?

Using a network that is just big enough to achieve a good fit is one way to enhance network generalization. The ability of a network to perform more complicated functions increases with network size. The network won't have the strength to overfit the data if it is tiny enough.

Rex's doughnuts can produce only 100 doughnuts a day. the variable cost incurred per unit is $2 and fixed costs incurred per day
vladimir1956 [14]
The total cost that is incurred by producing 100 doughnuts is equal to the sum of the variable cost and the fixed cost. The total variable cost is,
    total variable cost = ($2/doughnut)(100 doughnuts) = $200

The total cost is,
   Total cost = total variable cost + total fixed cost
     TC = $200 + $500 = $700

Equating the cost and the revenue,
     TC = TR
     $700 = (100)(x)

The value of x from the equation is $7.

3b. The reason for the differences in the amount of the income from operations in (1) and (2) for August is also the cost of goods sold based on full manufacturing costs for (1) while only variable costs are considered for (2).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of hats produced = 80,000

Number of hats sold = 72,000

Ending inventory = 8,000

1 Sales $4,320,000.00

2 Manufacturing costs:             July                    August

3 Direct materials                  $1,600,000.00    $1,280,000.00

4 Direct labor                           1,440,000.00       1,152,000.00

Total manufacturing costs   $3,600,000.00  $2,944,000.00

Under absorption costing:

Unit cost = $45 ($3,600,000/80,000)             $36.80 ($2,944,000/80,000)

Cost of goods sold = $3,240,000 ($45*72,000) $2,649,600 (36.8*72,000)

Ending Inventory =         360,000 ($45*8,000)         294,400 ($36.8*8,000)

7 Selling and administrative expenses:

8 Variable                                 $144,000.00       $144,000.00

Total selling & admin.  exp.     $169,000.00      $169,000.00

Under variable costing:

2 Manufacturing costs:

3 Direct materials                    $1,600,000.00     $1,280,000.00

4 Direct labor                             1,440,000.00        1,152,000.00

8 Variable selling & admin cost   144,000.00          144,000.00

Total variable costs =             $3,424,000.00    $2,768,000.00

Unit variable cost = $42.80 ($3,424,000/80,000)     $34.60

Cost of goods sold = $3,081,600 ($42.80 * 72,000)  $2,491,200

Ending Inventory =         342,400 ($42.80 * 8,000)         276,800

6 Fixed manufacturing cost    $320,000.00            $320,000.00

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a) must accept market price for its physical capital inputs.

Explanation:
