An economy is employing 2 units of capital, 5 units of raw materials, and 8 units of labour to produce its total output of 640 u

nits. Each unit of capital costs $10, each unit of raw materials, $4, and each unit of labour, $3.
Refer to the above information. The per unit cost of production in this economy is:
A) $1.00.
B) $.10.
C) $.05.
D) $.50.

Refer to the above information. If the per unit price of raw materials rises from $4 to $8 and all else remains constant, the per unit cost of production will rise by about:
A) 50 percent.
B) 30 percent.
C) 40 percent.
D) 100 percent.

Refer to the above information. As a result of the change indicated in the previous question, the aggregate:

Answer:

Explanation:

1. To find the cost per unit of production, first we find the total cost. So we multiply the unit of each factor used times its cost.

capital: 2*$10=$20

raw materials: 5*$4=$20

labour: 8*$3=$24

Total cost: $20+$20+$24=$64

Then we divide the total cost over the total units produced:

Cost per unit: $64/640=$0,1 Answer is B

2. If the cost per unit of raw materials increases from $4 to 8$. Then the total cost of production will be:

capital: 2*$10=$20

raw materials: 5*$8=$40

labour: 8*$3=$24

Total cost: $20+$40+$24=$84

To find how much the cost per unit will rise, to find how much it rises

64$→100%

$84←x

x=($84*100%)/$64=131.2%

131.2%-100=31.2%. The answer is B

3. Because there is a change in raw materials, then there would be changes in the supply demand.  In this case, the total cost and the cost per unit increased, then it is a negative shock to the supply demand. This is represented as a shift to the left. The answer is D

You invest $22,000 in 3 funds, fund A, fund B and fund C. You invest twice as much in fund C as fund B. Annually, fund A yields
zimovet [89]

Answer:

$7,000 was invested in Fund A

Explanation:

As per given Condition

A + B + C = $22,000 (1)

A5% + B8% = $750 (2)

As given

C = 2B

Placing C value in 1

A + B + 2B = $22,000

A +3B = $22,000 (3)

Multiplyin (2) by 20

A (0.05) x 20 + B (0.08) x 20 = $750 x 20

A + 1.6 B = $15,000 (4)

Subtracting (4) from (3)

A +3B - (A + 1.6 B ) = $22,000 - $15,000

A +3B - A - 1.6 B ) = $7,000

1.4 B = $7,000

B = $7,000 / 1.4

B = $5,000

As

C = 2B

C = 2 x $5000

C = $10,000

Placing value of B and C in (1)

A + $5000 + $10,000 = $22,000

A + $15,000 = $22,000

A = $22,000 - $15,000

A = $7,000

<u>CHECK</u>

A5% + B8% = $750

$7000 x 5% + $5,000 x 8% = $750

350 + $400 = $750

$750 = $750

Solve for direct labor
Direct labor=4800000-1900000
Direct labor=2900000. ..answer

If you try with the formula of the conversation cost to solve for direct labor, you will get the same answer

The formula of the conversation cost is

RSB [31]

Answer:

Total budgeted cash receipts fro May : $611000

Explanation:

Sales on credit is where the debtor can pay for the goods or services on a later date. In this case, it is paid at 3 different times: 50% during the month of sale, 30% during the next month and the reminder 20% the month after that.

According to the information, May collections would include sales of May as well as March and April. It would be:

50% of May sales = $639000 x 50% = $319500

30% of April sales = $599000 x 30% =

$179700

20% of March sales = $559000 x 20% = $111800

Total budgeted cash receipts for May = $319,500 + $179,700 + $111800 = $611000
