3. A company manufactures two types of products: A and B. Three resources R1, R2, and R3 are required to make these products. a.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

(i)The units of production of Product A and B (x and y) are the decision variables

(ii)Objective is to maximize profit

(iii)Objective function, Max P=20x+50y

(iv)The Contraints are:

8x+2y $\leq$ 500....(i)

2x+5y $\leq$ 400.......(ii)

3y $\leq$ 180

x>0, y>0

Explanation:

Let the number of Product A=x

Let the number of Product B=y

Each unit of product A requires 8 units of R1 and 4 units of R2.

Each unit of product B requires 2 units of R1, 5 units of R2, and 3 units of R3

The availabilities of resources R1, R2, and R3 are 500, 400, and 180

Since R1 $\leq$ 500,

Product A requires 8 units of R1 per production unit

Product B requires 2 units of R1 per production unit

Total Unit of R1 possible is given by the inequality: 8x+2y $\leq$ 500....(i)

Since R2 $\leq$ 400,

Product A requires 2 units of R2 per production unit

Product B requires 5 units of R2 per production unit

Total Unit of R2 possible is given by the inequality: 2x+5y $\leq$ 400....(ii)

Since R3 $\leq$ 180,

Product B requires 3 units of R2 per production unit

Total Unit of R2 possible is given by the inequality: 3y $\leq$ 180....(iii)

Since the manufacturer also makes a profit of $20 and $50 for products A and B, our objective is to maximize profit

Therefore: Objective function, Max P=20x+50y ......(iv)

Data given in the information

Product X is the byproduct.

In addition, the By products are recorded in the general ledger at the point of sale

So in this case, the quantity sold is considered only no other things would be recognized

Hence, in this the quantity sold and quantity produced is not recorded

Therefore , No ending inventory should be recognized in the general ledger for this by products

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Ownership of XYZ Corp. in ABC Partnership = 100% of ABC Partnership * Percentage owned by XYZ Corp.

= 100% * 50%

= 50%

Ownership of Nancy = Interest in ABC Partnership + Ownership of XYZ Corp. in ABC Partnership * Interest of Nancy In XYZ Corp.

The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to: 34.5%

Explanation:

Given:

Current salvage value = $15,000

Cost of new machine = $408,000

Cash operating cost = $141,000

Simple Return on Investment is Calculated as follows:-

Simple rate of return on the investment = Net Operating Cost Saved/ Initial Investment X 100

So Simple Return = 141000/408000 X 100

= 34.5%

The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to: 34.5%
