Answer:

The demand location where demand is unmet is equal to Cleveland. Received only 75 units. 100 units demand is unmet.

Explanation:

Solution

From the example given, we solve for which demand location will have an unmet demand

Now,

The maximum quantity that can be shipped from Allentown to Erie is 100.

The Maximum quantity that can be shipped from Harrisburg to Cleveland is 175

While,

The Maximum quantity that can be shipped from Harrisburg to Dayton is 175

Hence, in case we want an  solution optimum to get the required demand as many as possible with the supply given and with a low costs, then we need to find the optimum solution.

By applying a least cost method called greedy, we need to remove our least costing node and then provide minimum of demand and supply unit a present to each cell.

Thus,

The first least cost is Allentown to Dayton.

From Allentown to Dayton 100 units. Next least cost is Philadelphia to Erie.

From Philadelphia to Erie 150 units. Next least cost is Harrisburg to Erie.

From Harrisburg to Erie 25 units. Next least cost is Harrisburg to Dayton.

From Harrisburg to Dayton 75 units. Next least cost is Harrisburg to Cleveland

From Harrisburg to Cleveland 75 units.

So, for the  optimum solution, the right choice of answer will be

From Allentown to Erie = 0 units

From Harrisburg to Cleveland = 75 units

From Harrisburg to Dayton = 75 units

Therefore, The demand location where demand is unmet  is equal to Cleveland. Received only 75 units. 100 units demand is unmet.

Andre45 [30]

When a firm can depreciate its capital equipment over a shorter period, it cuts its taxes now.

A capital asset's value dropping is referred to as capital depreciation. To determine the recovery cost incurred on fixed assets over the course of their useful lives, assets are depreciated. When the asset reaches the end of its useful life or you need to sell it, this is used as a sinking fund to replace it. Depreciation lowers the taxable income, which lowers the tax burden. Capital assets are listed as an asset on the balance sheet and are depreciated over the course of their useful lives. Businesses typically have to spread out the costs of capital investments over a number of years in accordance with predetermined depreciation schedules.
