Reika [66]3 years ago

Consumer goods are those goods that are purchased and used by consumers. Consumer goods are not used by manufacturers to produce other goods. In essence, consumer goods are ready for use since they have been taken through the production and manufacturing. For a country to have consumer goods it must trade with other countries either to acquire raw materials or trade in consumer goods. This trade process contributes greatly towards the development of LDC economies into MDC status.

A coffee shop buys 2000 bags of their most popular coffee beans each month. The cost of ordering and receiving shipments is $12
aleksley [76]

Solution :

The optimal order quantity, EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 \times \text{demand}\times \text{ordering cost}}{\text{holding cost}}}$

EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 2000 \times 12}{3.6}}$

        = 115.47

The expected number of orders = $\frac{\text{demand}}{EOQ}$

                                                      $=\frac{2000}{115.47}$

                                                      = 17.32

The daily demand = demand / number of working days

                               $=\frac{2000}{240}$

                              = 8.33

The time between the orders = EOQ / daily demand

                                                 $=\frac{115.47}{8.33}$

                                                  = 13.86 days

ROP  = ( Daily demand x lead time ) + safety stock

        $=(8.33 \times 8)+10$

         = 76.64

The annual holding cost = $\frac{EOQ}{2} \times \text{holding cost}$

                                         $=\frac{115.47}{2} \times 3.6$

                                         = 207.85

The annual ordering cost = $\frac{\text{demand}}{EOQ} \times \text{ordering cost}$

                                           $=\frac{2000}{115.47} \times 12$

                                           = 207.85

So the total inventory cost = annual holding cost + annual ordering cost

                                            = 207.85 + 207.85

                                            = 415.7

The increase in total revenue that results from selling one more unit of output is A. marginal revenue. B. average revenue. C. m
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(i) Option (A) is correct.

(ii) Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

(i) Marginal revenue refers to the change in total revenue obtained from the sale of an extra unit of a commodity. It is calculated by differentiating total revenue with respect to output. It is shown as:

Marginal\ revenue=\frac{dTR}{dq}

where,

TR = Total revenue

q = output

(ii) In a perfectly competitive market, price is equal to both average revenue and marginal revenue. Since, firms in a competitive market are not required to reduce the price of their product for selling more number of units. Hence, the average revenue remains the same at all the level of output. That's why average revenue in equal to the price under perfect market conditions.

Therefore, every additional unit of an output is sold at a same price, so the marginal revenue obtained from an extra unit is constant and hence, price is equal to the marginal revenue.

Your buddy in mechanical engineering has invented a money machine. The main drawback of the machine is that it is slow. It takes
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

 

Explanation:

a ) We shall calculate the NPV of the project . If it is positive , then money can be invested

Cash outflow in the beginning =1000

Present value of perpetual annuity of 100 at 9.5 %

100 / .095

= 1052.63

which is more than initial cash outflow

So NPV is positive

Hence money can be invested.

b )

If machine takes one year to build , first year cash outflow of 100 will be absent

Present value of 100 after 1 year

= 100 / 1.095

= 91.32

So present value of annuity

= 1052.63 - 91.32

= 961.31

This is less than 1000 so

NPV is negative.

Hence money can not be invested.
