Answer:

Missing out on the benefits I get from working out using exercise equipment in my garage.

Explanation:

When an option is chosen from alternatives, the opportunity cost is the "cost" incurred by not enjoying the benefit associated with the best alternative choice. The New Oxford American Dictionary defines it as "the loss of potential gain from other alternatives when one alternative is chosen." Since Choice B is the next best choice to hiking, missing out on the benefits of working out will be my opportunity cost.

Sheffield Company has $145,000 of inventory at the beginning of the year and $131,000 at the end of the year. Sales revenue is $
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Sheffield Company

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory

= $1,145,400/$138,000

= 8.3 times

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Beginning inventory = $145,000

Ending inventory = $131,000

Average inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory)/2

= ($145,000 + 131,000)/2

= $138,000

Sales revenue = $1,972,800

Cost of goods sold = $1,145,400

Net income = $248,400

b) The inventory turnover ratio for Sheffield Company  is an efficiency ratio that shows how inventory is managed and the number of times Sheffield sells or consumes the inventory during an accounting period.   This is why Sheffield Company takes the average of the inventories in order to smoothen seasonal fluctuations in the inventory level during the year.  When this ratio divides the number of days in the accounting period, Sheffield will get the days it takes for inventory to be purchased or produced, and then sold or consumed.

Suppose the data have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 25 and a standard deviation of 5. Use the empirical rule to dete
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) 15 to 35 approximately 95%

(b) 10 to 40 approximately almost all

(c) 20 to 30 approximately 68%

Explanation:

The data have a bell-shaped distribution which means the data is equally distributed on both sides of the mean.

We have the mean at 25 and a standard deviation of 5 which means that the interval is for each of the values of 5 .

The mean would be u and

The first value would be u ±σ = 25 ± 5= 20 and 30 (68 % )

The second value will be u ± 2σ= 25± 10 = 15 and 35 (95%)

The third value will be u ± 3σ= 25 ± 15 = 10 and 40 (99.7 % almost all)

In the figure below the light blue region gives u ±σ on both sides of the mean

, dark blue gives u ± 2σ values on both sides of the mean and grey gives

u ± 3 σ values on both sides of the mean.

It is obvious that 68 % of the data is contained in the u ±σ light blue region, 95 % of the data in the  u ± 2σ dark blue including light blue and 99.7 % in the u ± 3σ all colored regions.
