Answer:

<u>Ajinomoto will likely not have an incentive to increase or change its output of MSG.</u>

Explanation:

Remember, marginal cost focuses on the increase in cost  additional unit of a product. Therefore, based on the limited information provided, Ajinomoto's decision will likely be based on it's market share. If the marginal cost equals zero, and it has more of the market share it will likely not influence them to change or increase their output.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$13,300 for each of the four years

Unit of output

$9800

$18900

$16100

$8400

double declining

27530

13765

6882.5

3441.25

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

( $55,060 - $1,860) / 4 = $13,300 each year

Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

( $55,060 - $1,860) / 7600 = 7

year 1 = 7 x 1400 = 9800

year 2 = 7 x 2700 = $18900

year 3 = 7 x 2300 = $16100

year 4 = 7 x 1200 = $8400

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/4 = 0.5

Year 1 = $55,060 x 0.5 = 27530

book value =  $55,060 - 27530 = 27530

year 2 = 27530 x 0.5 = 13765

book value = 27530 - 13765 =  13765

year 3 =  13765 x 0.5 = 6882.50

Which of the following would not involve a capital-budgeting analysis?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The adoption of a new cost driver for overhead application.  

Explanation:

This option is chosen because it is not directly related to organizational capital, or the production of goods or the provision of services. Otherwise it happens with options A and C, which does merit an analysis of the capital budget.

Option B is only taken into account in the analysis of the sales budget or production costs.

scoundrel [369]

There are 1560 ways

Explanation:

The toal number of restaurants are 8, out of which 3 serve seafood, and during the summer gateway, Jason decided to dine out at 4 multifarious restaurants.

Since, the order is significant, permutations is to be used.

Four restaurants can be chosen from the 8 restaurants in _{8} \mathrm{P}^{4}. In this case, "at least one" is complement of "fewer than one" (that is 0). Thus, four restaurants that are not serving seafood can be chosen from five restaurants in 5 P^{4}.

<u>Using complements principle to get the number of ways to get at least one of the restuarants serve seafood,</u>

8 P^{4}-5 P^{4} = 1680-120

8 P^{4}-5 P^{4} = 1560

Therefore, there are 1560 ways
