The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity                        

                               Oven                                  Contribution

                         Hours Required                 Margin Per Unit

Muffins                        0.2                                           $4

Coffee Cakes        0.3                                        $5

Answer:

Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00

Explanation:

<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in  such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>

Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:

Step 1

<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>

                                                                      cont/hr                   ranking

Muffin                        $4/0.2 hour =              20                     <em> 1st</em>

Coffee cakes                 $5/0.3 hour=        16.67                      2nd

<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>

Step 2

<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>

Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000

                                        = $ 60,000.00

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Muffins

Contribution hours = 0.2

Margin per unit = $4

Coffee Cakes

Contribution hours = 0.3

Margin per unit = $5

Required margin per unit contribution hours, muffins = 4/0.2

= $ 20

Required margin per unit contribution hours, coffee cakes = 5/0.3

= $ 16.67

For the most profitable product, muffins = $ 20 per unit contribution hours.

At 3000 hours of oven contribution hours,

Contribution margin = $ 20 × 3000

= $ 60,000 per unit.

Your vehicle's _____ affects its inertia.
Paul [167]

Answer:

Your vehicle's brakes affects its inertia.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion: "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." So the build up of inertia can only be affected by the vehicles brakes. If it's an act outside of the vehicle's control the answer may be road or weather conditions.
