Answer:

Product A because the contribution margin per MH is $23.33

Explanation:

In terms of efficiency, you have to look for the highest outcome with the fewer use of resources. In this case, the resources available are the machines, and the outcome is the profit (margin per unit). Applying the formula:  Efficiency producing X (Ex) = [(1 hour of machine hour) / (Product x timed used per unit)]Margin per unit X, and comparing products A and B, you get that producing A is more efficient in terms of profits than producing B, by $10,1 per hour (23,33 - 13,2)

Answer: Product A because contribution margin per unit is $7.70

Explanation:

Contribution margin is the difference between the sales price and the variable cost of a product, any product that has a positive contribution is worth investing in for the contribution will on the long run take off the fixed cost and company will subsequently makes a profit. However in a competitive situation the firm should chose a product with the higher contribution margin.

The price is not a strong determinant nor the contribution in relation to a single variable when the contribution per unit is giving.

"If the option will cost the investor an additional $10,000, should the investor purchase the option? Enter your answer in thous
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

“Should” or “should not” depend on the cost rate of the option and the risk appetite of investors.

Explanation:

An option is a contract that allows investors to buy or sell instruments such as security, Exchanged Traded Fund or an index at a pre-determined price over a certain period of time.

If the option will cost the investor an additional $10,000 and it is the cost for an option of $10 million investment, then it cost only 0.1% additionally, but it can secure the position of this investment; then the investor should buy this option.

Vice versa, if the additional $10,000 is much more than expected profit, and even lower but significantly drop down the total profit of an investment; and the investor always wish to have a high profit regardless high risk; then he shouldn’t buy this option.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts receivables = $1,500,000

Allowance for doubtful accounts = $90,000

Expected uncollectibles = $125,000

The collection of accounts receivables after the adjustment for bad debt expense is determined by deducting the expected uncollectibles from the total amount of accounts receivables.

Accounts receivable amount expected to be collected after adjustment for bad debt expense:

= Accounts receivables - Expected uncollectibles

= $1,500,000 - $125,000

= $1,375,000
