Eddi Din [679]

Answer The correct answer is 8.317 units

Explanation:

Firstly, calculate the Total fixed costs= ($2.35+$2.63)*6800= $33.864 Fixed Manufacturing and Selling cost

Secondly, calculate the earnings before taxes 63.000/(1-tax rate) = 63.000(/1-0.39)= 103.278.69

Then, Calculate the Revenue less fixed cost 103.278.69+33.864=137.142,68

Then calculate the Variable margin that is equal to ( Price of sales per unit – Variable manufacturing – Variable selling) = (36.10-14.50-5.11)= 16.49

Finally divide the revenue less fixed cost on the variable margin (137.142,68/16.49) = 8316.72

Units Price Total

Revenue 8,316.72 36.10 300,233.54

Fixed Manufacturing (15,980.00)

Variable manufacturing 8,316.72 14.50 (120,592.42)

Fixed Selling (17,884.00)

Variable Selling 8,316.72 5.11 (42,498.43)

Net Revenue 103,278.69

Tax rate 39% (40,278.69)

Total 63,000.00

PV = - $100

N = (15 -2) × 2 = 26

PMT = ($100 × 7.30%) ÷ 2 = $3.65

FV = $103

RideShare offers short-term rentals of vehicles that are kept in small lots in urban neighborhoods with plenty of potential cust

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

a. Offered load = 1 lot / 4 hours = 6 cars/4 hours = 1.5 cars/hours

b. Demand rate = Total cars per 4 hours/20 minutes time

Demand rate = 6*4 / 20

Demand rate = 24/20

Demand rate = 1.2 cars/hours

Implied utilization = Demand rate / Offered load

Implied utilization = 1.2/1.5

Implied utilization = 0.8

Implied utilization = 80%

c. Capacity of the process = 1 lot / 5 hours

Capacity of the process = 6 / 5

Capacity of the process = 1.2 rentals per hours

d. Probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time

=> (1 - 0.8) * (0.8)^8

=> 0.2 * 0.1678

=> 0.03356

=> 3.36
