There is no data attached but<span> the question can be answered without it. The analyst's  conclusion that they should hire more people to drive higher sales is not justified because the area of the bookstore is small and is constant. It is not practical to hire more people and let them all work in that little space.  Another alternative maybe is to advertise their books online to attract more customers. </span>

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

4) All of the above

Explanation:

The day care program should have rewardedbeing on time to encourage this attitude.

Suppose that a worker in Caninia can produce either 2 blankets or 8 meals per day, and a worker in Felinia can produce either 5
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

15 blankets; 35 meals

Explanation:

First, we compute Opportunity Cost (OC).

In Caninia,

OC of blanket = 8/2 = 4 meals

OC of meals = 2/8 = 0.25 blanket

In Felinia,

OC of blanket = 1/5 = 0.2 meals

OC of meals = 5/1 = 5 blanket

Since Felinia can produce blankets at lower OC (0.2 < 4), so

Felinia has comparative advantage and specializing in blankets.

Total blankets produced with trade = 5 x 10

                                                           = 50

Since Caninia can produce meals at lower OC (0.25 < 5), so

Caninia has comparative advantage and specializing in meals.

Total meals produced with trade = 8 x 10

                                                       = 80

After trade,

Total blankets produced = 10 + 25

                                         = 35

Decrease in blanket output = 50 - 35

                                              = 15

Total meals produced = 40 + 5

                                     = 45

Decrease in meals output = 80 - 45

                                            = 35

Two months ago, Air-tite Corporation purchased 4,500 pounds of Hydrol, paying $15,300. The demand for this product has been very
Anna007 [38]

Answer: The $4.05 market price

Explanation: Air-tite can buy or sell Hydrol at $4.05. If they decide to accept the order, there has to be a higher return on the use of Hydrol in the return than they would get from selling Hydrol as is.

There may also be an opportunity cost to using the product for this special order if there is an order that would yield higher returns for the use of Hydrol.

The quantity that would remain after making the special order does not have any impact on the decision making process, as they are considering just one order that requires Hydrol.

The purchase price is not relevant as they cannot purchase Hydrol at that price in the present. The total quantity is not relevant either as they have enough for the order.

Primo Industries collected $105,000 from customers in 2019. Of the amount collected, $25,000 was for services performed in 2018.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

a. $33,000.

b. $36,000.

Explanation:

Net income is calculated as sales minus cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating expenses, depreciation, interest, taxes, and other expenses. It is also called net earnings.

Now, Cash accounting recognizes revenue and expenses only when money changes hands, but accrual accounting recognizes revenue when it's earned, and expenses when they're billed (but not paid).

a. 2014 Cash-basis net income:

Primo Industries collected $105,000 from customers in 2019

Primo Industries also paid $72,000 for expenses in 2019

=105,000-72,000

=$33,000

b. 2014 accrual-basis net income.

=(105,000-25000+40000)-(72000-30000+42000)

=120000-84000

=$36,000
