Answer:

Based on the available information, the company should produce 27,900 units of  couches in a month. This decision may be different  if we have the product profitability information in terms of contribution of each product.

                                                         

Explanation:

                                                                                  Couches             Bed(s)  

Production per machine hour (unit)                                   3                   2

Available Capacity (Machine hour per month)                9,300           9,300

Total possible production (unit) (9,300 x 3)-Couches   27,900

Total possible production (unit) (9,300 x 2)-Bed                                  18,600

Based on the available information, the company should produce 27,900 units of  couches since it is the production activities that produces a higher number of units in a month compared to the production of beds which can only yield 18,600 units  considering the available production capacity of 9,300 machine hours per month.

The decision may be different if we have the product profitability information in terms of contribution of each product.

The general ledger of a cash account is presented below:

                                            Cash Account

Date     Particulars           Amount        Date     Particulars           Amount

April 1    Beginning                                 April 16  Rent expense     $460

             Balance               $3,850

April 3  Service                                      April  20   Salaries and

            Revenue              $3,400                         Wages expense $340

                                                               April 30  Ending balance   $6,450

The ending  balance would be

= Beginning balance + service revenue - rent expense - salaries and wages expense

= $3,850 + $3,400 - $460 - $340

= $6,450

True/False
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Have you ever heard the phrase "there are lies, [email protected] lies and statistics"?

The only way that a statistical study be 100% confident is that it involves everyone or everything. For example, if you want to carry on a study about how many US college students drive, in order to be 100% confident of the result, you would need to interview all the college students in the country.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

When  ATC curve is​ decreasing, we know that the MC curve is

below the ATC curve​, and when the ATC curve is​ increasing, we know that MC is  above the ATC curve

Explanation:

ATC refers to average total cost and MC refers to marginal cost, these both curve derive from total cost when MC is below ATC curve it shows that MC is less than ATC at that point ATC is falling.

Likewise, when MC is above ATC curve it shows MC is grater than ATC curve and at that point ATC is rising.

furthermore, when MC is equal to ATC at that point ATC is at minimum point.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Annual savings = 61,746.

Explanation:

The Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the present value (PV) of cash outflows  and PV of cash inflow

At the internal rate of return the PC of annual cash savings will be equal to the investment cost

Initial cost = 211980

PV = annual cash savings = A× (1- (1+r)^(-n)/ r

A=?  r-internal rate of return, 14%, n-number of years- 5

211980 = A  (1- (1.14)^(-5)/ 0.14

211,980 = A× 3.433080969

A= 211,980/3.43308

A= 61746.28619

Annual savings = 61,746.
