Garvin's USER BASED definition of quality states that if the customer is satisfied, the product has good quality.
David Garvin is an Havard professor who wrote a book titled 'Managing quality'. In his book, Garvin summarized five major approaches to defining quality. The approaches are: product based view, user based view, transcendental view of quality, manufacturing based view and value based view.<span />
Answer:
14%
Explanation:
The computation of the tvom in percentage form is shown below:
Today price × (1 + interest rate) = Future value
$5,000 × (1 + interest rate) = $5,700
(1 + interest rate) = $5,700 ÷ 5,000
(1 + interest rate) = 1.14
So, the interest rate
= 1.14 -1
= 0.14 or 14%
Hence, the interest rate or TVOM i.e times value of money is 14%
Answer:
Explanation:
The chart below gives prices and output information for the country of Utopia. Use this information to calculate real and nominal GDP for both years. Use 2017 as the base year.
Year 2016 2017
Price Quantity Price Quantity
Ice Cream $7.00 600 $3.00 400
Blue Jeans $70.00 20 $20.00 90
Laptops $300.00 5 $300.00 5
2016 nominal GDP = $_(7 x 600) + (70 x 20) + (300 x 5)_ = $7,100
2017 nominal GDP = $_(3 x 400)+(20 x 90) + (300 x 5)_ = $4,500
2016 real GDP = $__(7100-4500)/ 4500)) / change in ice cream price of 50%+ change in blue jean price of (70-20/20) 250%_______
= 0.57/3 = 0.19% growth. Technically the economy was better in 2016 than in 2017.
2017 real GDP = will be same as nominal, hence no growth since this is the base year
Answer:
The answer is: Josh's utility maximizing point is when he buys 2 pizzas and 4 burgers.
Explanation:
If Josh gets equal marginal utility per dollar spent when buying one pizza and 2 burgers, that means that every pizza and every burger give Josh 10.67 utility unit per dollar spent. So Josh can obtain maximum 16 units of utility with his budget and his purchasing options (= $24 x 0.67 units of utility per dollar). The way he can maximize his utility is by buying two packs of one pizza and two burgers per pack, since every pack will give him 8 units of utility.
Answer:
Product cost per unit = $13
Explanation:
<em>Absorption costing values units of inventory and production using full cost per unit. Full cost per unit includes variable cost and a portion of fixed production overheads. The fixed production overhead are charged to cost units using predetermined overhead absorption rate.</em>
The full cost per unit = D.mat cost + D.labour cost + Variable overheads+ Fixed overheads.
Total full absorption cost = 125,000 + 100,000 + 75,000 + 25,000=325,000
Full cost per unit = Total full absorption cost/Number of units
= 325,000/25,000 =$13
<em>Note that we excluded non- production cost like selling and administrative from the computation because they are not related to production</em>
Product cost per unit = $13
