Answer: 10% or $2,000,000

Explanation:

Seeing as no figures were produced, we will have to do this ourselves.

We will make assumptions which include the following,

Life of the equipment = 10 Years

Salvage value = 0

Those are our 2 assumptions.

In that case then,

The Annual Depreciation will be,

Depreciation = (Cost of equipment - Estimated salvage value) / Estimated useful life

= (20 - 0) / 10

= $2 million

Seeing as 2 million is,

= 2/20 * 100

= 10%

That would mean that annual depreciation costs at that facility will rise by $2 million or 10%.

If you need any clarification do react or comment.

The opening of a new American-owned factory in Algeria would tend to increase Algeria's GDP more than it increases Algeria's GNP
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a and option b.

Explanation:

The opening of a new American-owned factory in Algeria would tend to increase Algeria's GDP more than it increases Algeria's GNP.

This is because the GDP of a nation is the value of final goods and services produced in an economy in a year by both domestic citizens as well as foreign residents.

While GNP of a nation does not include the income earned by the foreign residents within the boundaries of a nation. So it is lower than GDP.

The Poison Apple Diner had an average dinner cover charge of $8.75 during the month of September, when 3,000 atrons were served.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

0.583

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Average dinner charges = $8.75

Initial demand = 3,000 atrons

Increase in price = $0.50

Final demand = 2,900

Thus,

change in demand = 3,000 - 2,900 = 100

Now,

The price elasticity of demand = \frac{\textup{Percentage change in demand}}{\textup{Percentage change in price}}

also,

Percentage change in demand = \frac{\textup{Change in demand}}{\textup{Initial demand}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{100}}{\textup{3000}}\times100\%

= 3.33%

Percentage change in price =  \frac{\textup{Change in price}}{\textup{Initial price}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{0.50}}{\textup{8.75}}\times100\%

= 5.714

thus,

The price elasticity of demand = \frac{\textup{3.33}\%}{\textup{5.714}\%}

= 0.583

Problem 10A specialty coffeehouse sells Colombian coffee at a fairly steady rate of 280 pounds annually. The beans are purchased
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The computations are shown below:

Explanation:

a. The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{280}\times \text{\$45}}{\text{\$0.48}}}

= 229 units

The carrying cost is come from

= $2.40 × 20%

b. Time between placement of orders is

= Economic order quantity ÷Annual demand

= 229 ÷ 280

= 0.8179 years

So,

= 0.8179 × 365 days

= 298.53 days

We assume 365 days in a year

c. The average annual cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to

= Holding cost + ordering cost

= (Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × Holding cost)  + (Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost)

= (229 units ÷ 2 × $0.48) + (280 ÷ 229 units × $45)

= $54.96 + $55.02

= $109.98

d)   Now the reorder level is

= Demand × lead time + safety stock

where, Demand equal to

= Expected demand ÷ total number of weeks in a year

= 280 pounds ÷ 52 weeks

= 5.38461

So, the reorder point would be  

=  5.38461 × 3 + $0

= 16.15 pounds

Duck Company produces a product which sells for $40. Variable manufacturing costs are $18 per unit. Fixed manufacturing costs ar
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Contribution margin = $16

Explanation:

Contribution is the difference between the selling price and the variable cost.

Contribution margin = (Sales - variable cost )

Variable cost = Variable manufacturing + Variable selling cost

Variable cost = 18 + (15%× 40) = 24

Contribution margin = 40 - 24 =  $16

Contribution margin = $16
