Let us see it from a cost-efficiency point of view. We have that every unit of the first selles costs 40$. But the total cost might be higher, since there is a chance for defect. On average, on 3% of the cases the defect will happen and it will cost him 500$. Hence, on average, a fence unit from producer a costs 40$ and has a repair cost of 3%*500$=15$. The total thus is 55$. For the second provider of fences, the standard cost is 50$. Similarly, the average repair cost is 0,5%*500$=2,5$. Hence, the total cost per unit is 52,5$ (total cost=upfront payment+repair costs). We see thus that the lady should win the bid; even if you pay more upfront, the difference in durability makes up the cost difference.

Answer:

Days' sales in receivables = 33.2 days

Explanation:

<em>Days sales receivables is the average length of time it takes a business to collect the amount owing in respect of credit sales transaction. The shorter the days, the better.</em>

Receivable days = Average receivables /Credit sales × 365 days

Net Income = Profit margin × Sales

Let "y" represent total sales

161,000 = 7.6% ×  y

y = 161,000/7.6%= 2,118,421.053

Credit sales = 66%× total sales

                      = 66%×2,118,421.053  =  1,398,158  

Days' sales in receivables = 127100/ 1,398,158  × 365 days =33.18 days

Days' sales in receivables = 33.2 days

The shape of the ______________ involves a tradeoff between unemployment and inflation.
beks73 [17]

Answer: Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

The short run Phillips curve represents the trade off between unemployment  and inflation. This means that if there is an increase in the inflation rate then as a result unemployment rate decreases and  if there is an increase in the unemployment rate then as a result inflation rate decreases. There is an inverse relationship between unemployment and inflation rate.

The long run Phillips curve is a vertical line which is at a point of natural rate of unemployment and short run Phillips curve is L-shaped.
