Answer:
a) $3
b) $2
c) 1449
Explanation:
Given:
The cost for a carton of milk = $3
Selling price for a carton of milk = $5
Salvage value = $0 [since When the milk expires, it is thrown out ]3
Mean of historical monthly demand = 1,500
Standard deviation = 200
Now,
a) cost of overstocking = Cost for a carton of milk - Salvage value
= $3 - $0
= $3
cost of under-stocking = Selling price - cost for a carton of milk
= $5 - $3
= $2
b) critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 0.4
c) optimal quantity of milk cartons = Mean + ( z × standard deviation )
here, z is the z-score for the critical ration of 0.4
we know
z-score(0.4) = -0.253
thus,
optimal quantity of milk cartons = 1,500 + ( -0.253 × 200 )
= 1500 - 50.6
= 1449.4 ≈ 1449 units
Answer:
invoice price (dirty price) = $1,004.13
Explanation:
semi-annual coupon = $1,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $35
clean price = $1,001.25
accrued interest = (Jan. 30 - Jan. 15) x $35 x 1/182 = $2.88
invoice price (dirty price) = clean price + accrued interest = $1,001.25 + $2.88 = $1,004.13
the dirty price or invoice price of a bond includes any accrued interest that the bond may have earned in the period between the last coupon payment and the transaction date.
Answer:
c. It will increase.
Explanation:
Break even point is the level of activity at which a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.
<em>Break - even units = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit </em>
therefore,
<u>Existing break-even point in units :</u>
Break - even units = $16,000 ÷ ($40 - $18) = 727.27 or 728 units
<u>New break-even point in units :</u>
Break - even units = $21,000 ÷ ($40 - $16) = 875 units
Conclusion :
The results show that break-even point in units will increase from 728 units to 875 units as a result of the changes
It is the last one, 7 days
