I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The term <span> that describes what a business has to pay to correct defective products would be the cost of quality. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
The given data is as follows:
Error rate = 4%, per hour payment of inspector = $8, inspection of units = at the rate of 49 per hour, cost = $9 per unit
The problem can be solved as considering an opportunity to have an improvement of 4% in the quality.
In case inspector is not hired then it will cost .04 multiply 9= $.3.6 per unit and in case the inspector is hired it will cost $ 0.163 approx.(8 divided by 49).
Therefore, on comparison, it is recommended to hire the inspector.
Answer:
a) Present value of the investment: $198,936
b) if the present worth of the investment which are discounted at MARR rate is positive, the investment is worth investing, while if the present value of the investment is negative, Investor should not invest.
c) As calculated in (a), present value of the investment is $198,936, Bailey should buy the gang punch
Explanation:
Please find detailed of calculation in (a) which is shown as below:
Present value = Present value of saving in raw material - Present value of increase in labor cost - Initial investment = [ (12,250/ 5%) x (1-1.05^-15)] - [ (3,200/ 5%) x (1-1.05^-15)] - 105,000 = $198,936.
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $189,600
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
On January 1, 2017, anodel, Inc. acquired a machine for 1,010,000. the estimated useful life of the asset is five years. residual value at the end of five years is estimated to be 62000.
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (1,010,000 - 62,000)/5= $189,600
Answer:
should specialize in the production of goods for which they have a lower opportunity cost of production than their trading partners
Explanation:
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.
For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.
for country A,
opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2
for country B,
opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2
Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice
Country A should specialise in the production of beans and B should specialise in the production of rice
