A manager is applying the Transportation Model of linear programming to solve an aggregate planning problem. Demand in period 1

is 100 units, and in period 2, demand is 150 units. The manager has 125 hours of regular employment available for $10/hour each period. In addition, 50 hours of overtime are available for $15/hour each period. Holding costs are $2 per unit each period. a. How many hours of regular employment should be used in period 1? (Assume demand must be met in both periods 1 and 2 for the lowest possible cost and that production is 1 unit per hour.)

Answer:

<u>125 (hours)</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, the Linear programming model is simply a technique used to optimize a particular set of processes.

Note the statement from the question, "the manager has 125 hours of regular employment available for $10/hour each period." Which means this would form part of the constraints of the linear programming model.

In other words, the number of total hours available in period 1 is 125 hours.

After saving money in her piggy bank for three years, Beverly decided to deposit $5,000 of the money in the Millertown Bank. If
Nitella [24]

$20,000 is correct

When they ask for the amount the bank can "create" they are really asking for the <u>change in the money supply</u><u>.</u> They are required to reserve 20%, so they can loan out 80%

80% * $5,000= $4,000

Now, the bank can use this $4,000 by loaning it out to other customers and earning interest on those loans. The customers can use the money for investments or spending. So the first little deposit of $5,000 has now spread to a lot more people and created a lot more opportunity for growth. This is known as the <u>multiplier effect.</u> To put the multiplier effect in dollar amounts, we need to know how much we are multiplying by. This is called the <u>deposit multiplyer</u> and the formula is 1/(required reserve ratio). The reserve ratio here is 20% or .2

1/(.2)= 5

Our deposit multiplier which will calculate the multiplier effect on the money supply (aka the amount the bank can "create") is 5

5* $4,000= $20,000

Say that Thailand has a workforce of 35,709,487 people, each of whom earns an average salary of (equivalent USD) $8,630 annually
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Ans. c) Income tax rate must be 23%

Explanation:

Hi, the total income of Thailand´s workforce is:

Total Income=35,709,487 people*\frac{8,630}{person} = 308,172,872,810

Since Thailand´s government needs to raise $70,000,000,000, the tax rate has to be:

TaxRate=\frac{70,000,000,000}{308,172,872,810} =0.23

So Thailand´s tax rate must be: c. 23%

Best of luck.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

4,800 bottles

Explanation:

The formula to compute the number of bottles sold is shown below:

= (Fixed cost + target profit) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)  

where,  

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit

= $15 - $13.50

= $1.50

So, the number of bottles sold equal to

= ($3,200 + $4,000) ÷ ($1.50)

= 4,800 bottles
