Assume C and E types, which represent lbs of each.
C=50
50*1.20+.80E=1.00*(50+E)
60+.8E=50+E
.2E=10
<span>E=50 lbs

Answer:

50 pounds of expensive and 50 pounds of cheap

Explanation:

Make a variable for each type of coffee.

x = pounds of expensive coffee (we already know it is 50 pounds)

y= pounds of cheap coffee

(50 *$1.20) + ($.8y) = $1(50 +y)

60 + .8y = 50 + y

10= .2y

y= 50 pounds of cheap coffee

Aces Inc., a manufacturer of tennis rackets, began operations this year. The company produced 6,000 rackets and sold 4,900. Each
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Refer To The attached screen shot. It contains the Income Statement Prepared under Absorption Costing.

Explanation:

Absorption Costing assumes that the Manufacturing Costs include Direct Material, Direct Labor, Variable Overhead, and Fixed Overhead. Whereas, Selling and Administrative Expenses are classified as period Costs. These period costs are recognized in the period in which they are incurred. On the other hand, the manufacturing costs are recognized when the goods on which the costs were incurred are sold. That's why we don't recognize $78,000 as a Fixed Overhead because these overhead costs were incurred to produce 6,000 rackets. We have to calculate the fixed overhead cost per unit and multiply it with the units sold.

I hope I made it clear. If you have any queries, feel free to contact me.

Thanks.

Chelsea Fashions is expected to pay an annual dividend of $1.26 a share next year. The market price of the stock is $24.09 and t
Stells [14]

Answer:

a. 7.83 percent

Explanation:

This is calculated by using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula as follows:

P = d / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P =  market price of the stock = $24.09

d = next year annual dividend = $1.26

r = cost of equity = ?

g = dividend growth rate = 2.6%, or 0.026

Substituting the values into equation and solve for r, we have:

24.09 = 1.26 / (r - 0.026)

24.09 (r - 0.026) = 1.26

24.09r - 0.62634 = 1.26

24.09r = 1.26 + 0.62634

24.09r = 1.88634

r = 1.88634 / 24.09

r = 0.0783038605230386, or 7.83038605230386%

Rounding to 2 decimal places. we have:

r = 7.83%

Therefore, the correct option is a. 7.83 percent.

Beta industries manufactures floppy disk that consumers perceive as identical to those produced by numerous other manufacturers.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

a. Fixed costs for businesses are the ones that don't depend on Q. Fixed costs= 20

b, thus. dC / dQ= d(20 + 2Q^2)/dQ= 4Q

c. Many companies say the economy competes perfectly. For such a scenario, the company is a price-taker and would demand the same $10 price as other firms on the market to sell its products.

d. Most companies expect a reasonably open market. Hence, MR= $10 in size.

Max profit: MC= MR, then 4Q= 10= > Q= 10/4= 2.5 Optimum production level to optimize profits= 2.5 units e. Profits= Sales-Expenses= price* Q-( 20+ 2Q^2)= 10* 2.5-20-2* (2.5)^2= 25-32.5 = -7.5 Profits are thus-$ 7.5 ($7.5 loss).

f. The organization will continue to survive in the short term because $7.5 losses are smaller than the $20 fixed expense. In other words, the company can pay more than its rising output expenses, and will thus continue to work in the short run.

To achieve the gains from trade, each nation should specialize in the production of a good or service if:
fomenos

Answer:

the country can make the product using fewer resources than any other country

Explanation:

If a country can produce goods and services using fewer resources than others, it means its output will be cheaper compared to other countries. Producing using fewer resources is the same as producing at lower opportunity cost. A country manufactures more products using the same resources are the other nations.

Profiting from trade will require purchasing goods and services at the lowest price possible.  A country should export the products it produces at a lower price and import what other nations can manufacture using fewer resources.  For example, if country A can produce a product at $20 and country B produces the same product at $10. Country A will benefit by importing the product from B $10 than producing it.
