If he was the first to say he wanted the product and the seller wants to sell it as fast as possible than yes. But not technically it would be  a kind of verbal understanding and agreement.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

A) R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2

B) P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

C) 80

D) 2300

E) 80

Explanation:

Given the following :

Price of suit 'x' :

p = 120 - 0.5x

Cost of producing 'x' suits :

C(x)=2500 + 0.25 x^2

A) calculate total revenue 'R(x)'

Total Revenue = price × total quantity sold, If total quantity sold = 'x'

R(x) = (120 - 0.5x) * x

R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2

B) Total profit, 'p(x)'

Profit = Total revenue - Cost of production

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = (120x - 0.5x^2) - (2500 + 0.25x^2)

P(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2 - 2500 - 0.25x^2

P(x) = - 0.5x^2 - 0.25x^2 + 120x - 2500

P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

C) To maximize profit

Find the marginal profit 'p' (x)'

First derivative of p(x)

d/dx (p(x)) = - 2(0.75)x + 120

P'(x) = - 1.5x + 120

-1.5x + 120 = 0

-1.5x = - 120

x = 120 / 1.5

x = 80

D) maximum profit

P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

P(80) = - 0.75(80)^2 + 120(80) - 2500

= -0.75(6400) + 9600 - 2500

= -4800 + 9600 - 2500

= 2300

E) price per suit in other to maximize profit

P = 120 - 0.5x

P = 120 - 0.5(80)

P = 120 - 40

P = $80

puteri [66]

Answer:

4.87%

Explanation:

In this question , we are asked to calculate the appropriate after-tax cost of new debt for the firm to use in capital budgeting analysis.

PMT = 1000*7% = 70 (indicates the amount of interest payment)

Nper = 10 (indicates the period over which interest payments are made)

PV = 966 (indicates the present value)

FV = 1000 (indicates the future/face value)

Rate = ? (indicates the cost of debt)

After Tax Cost of Debt = Rate(Nper,PMT,PV,FV)*(1-Tax Rate) = Rate(10,70,-966,1000)*(1-.35) = 4.87%

Amberjack Company is trying to decide on an allocation base to use to assign manufacturing overhead to jobs. The company has alw
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated Value Actual Value

Manufacturing overhead cost $732,000 $842,000

Direct labor hours 14,640 hours 16,600 hours

<u>To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 732,000 / 14,640

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $50 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 50*16,600

Allocated MOH= $830,000

<u>Finally, the over/under allocation:</u>

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 842,000 - 830,000

Underapplied overhead= $12,000
