Answer:

5.25 containers are needed

Explanation:

Given:

Total Demand for 8 hour = 600

Safety stock = 50%

Container size = 100

Lead hour = 3 hour

Computation of container required:

Demand for an hour = 600/8  = 75

Safety stock = 50% of 600 = 300

Needed container = [(Demand for an hour x Lead hour) + Safety stock ] / 100

= [(75 x 3) + 300] / 100

= 525 /100

=5.25

Therefore, 5.25 containers are needed

Edgar, Inc. has a materials price standard of $2.00 per pound. Six thousand pounds of materials were purchased at $2.20 a pound.
butalik [34]

Answer:

materials quantity variance: 1,200 unfavorable

Explanation:

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity 5400.00

actual quantity 6000.00

std cost  $2.00

(5,400 - 6,000) \times 2.00 = DM \: quantity \: variance

difference -600.00

quantity variance  $(1,200.00)

The difference between standard and actual quantity is negative. We used more pounds than expected, the variance will be unfavorable.

600 extra pounds at $2.00 each = 1,200

Aquilera, Inc., has sales of $19.6 million, total assets of $14.6 million, and total debt of $5.4 million. The profit margin is
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a. $1,764,000.00

b. 12.08%

c. 19.17%

Explanation:

a. What is the company's net income?

Profit margin = Net income ÷ Sales

Therefore, we have:

9% = Net income ÷ $19,600,000

Net income = $19,600,000 × 9% = $1,764,000.00  

Therefore, the net income of Aquilera, Inc. is $1,764,000.00

b. What is the company's Return on Assets (ROA)?

ROA = Net income ÷ Total Assets

ROA = $1,764,000 ÷ $14,600,000 =  0.120821917808219 = 12.08%

Therefore, the ROA of Aquilera, Inc. is 12.08%

c. What is the company's Return on Equity (ROE)?

Total Assets = Total Debt + Total Equity

Therefore,

Total Equity = Total Assets - Total Debt

Total Equity = $14,600,000 - $5,400,000 = $9,200,000

ROE = Net income ÷ Total Equity

ROE = $1,764,000 ÷ $9,200,000 = 0.191739130434783 = 19.17%

Therefore, the ROE of Aquilera, Inc. is 19.17%

Aberwald Corporation expects to sell 90,000 bags of lawn fertilizer annually. The optimal safety stock (which is on hand initial
UNO [17]

Answer:

Annual demand (U) = 90.000 bags

Cost of each bag = $1.50

Inventory carrying cost per unit(C) = $1.50 × 20% = 0 30

Ordering cost per unit (O) = $15

Part A)

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2UO}{C}}

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 90000 * 15}{0.30}}

EOQ = \sqrt{9000000}

EOQ = 3,000

Part B)

Maximum inventory = EOQ + Safety inventory on hand  

Maximum inventory = 3000 + 1000

Maximum inventory = 4.000

Part C)

Average inventory = Maximum inventory + Minimum or Safety /2

Average inventory = 4,000 + 1,000 / 2

Average inventory =2,500

Part D)

How often company order = Annual demand / EOQ

How often company order = 90,000 / 3.000

How often company order = 30
