Answer:

C) Central banks finance large government budget deficits

Explanation:

Hyperinflation is when general price level rise at accelerating high rates. This leads to loss in real value of currency, people tend to substitute it by other stable currency holdings.

An important cause of Hyperinflation is Deficit Financing. This means government generating funds, by bank issuing (printing) new currency. It is done to cover the deficit, the excess of government expenses over its revenues.

Increase in currency money supply, by borrowing from central bank - raises Aggregate Demand & general price level at a very rapid rate, i.e Hyperinflation

Quarter 3 75,250 $ 90,300

Quarter 4 60,500 $ 72,600

Full year $ 343.500

3. Expected Cash disbursements

Quarter 1 $ 54,740

Quarter 2 $ 91,980

Quarter 3 $ 93.660

Quarter 4 $ 79,680

Total Year payments $ 320,060

4. Total cost of Direct Labor

Quarter 1 $ 27,900

Quarter 2 $ 37,200

Quarter 3 $ 34,100

Quarter 4 $ 31,000

Total Year for direct labor $ 130,200

Explanation:

Computation of raw material purchases

Raw material consumption

Qtr No of Units per qtr Total Requirement

1 9,000 * 7 gms per unit = 63,000 gms

2 12,000 * 7 gms per unit = 84,000 gms

3 11,000 * 7 gms per unit = 77,000 gms

4 10,000 * 7 gms per unit = 70,000 gms

Total Year 294,000 gms

Raw Material Purchases for each quarter

Purchases = Closing inventory + Consumption - Opening inventory

1 21,000 (84,000gms * 25 % ) + 63,000 - 15.750 = 68,250 gms

2 19,250 (77,000gms* 25 %) + 84,000 - 21,000 = 82,250 gms

3 17,500 ( 70,000gms* 25 %) + 77,000-19,250 = 75,250 gms

4 8,000 ( As per data) + 70,000-17.500 = 60,500 gms

Total year purchases = = 286,250 gms

Cost of purchases

Quarter 1 68,250 gms * $ 1.20 = $ 81,900

Quarter 2 82,250 gms * $ 1.20 = $ 98,700

Quarter 3 75,250 gms * $ 1,20 = $ 90,300

Quarter 4 60,500 gms * $ 1,20 = $ 72,600

Total purchases $ 343,500

Computation of cash disbursements for purchases

Quarter 1 Payments = Opening Payables + 60 % of quarter 1

$ 5,600 + ( 60 %* $ 81,900) = $ 5,600 + $ 49,140 = $ 54,740

Quarter 2 payments

(40 % of quarter 1) + ( 60 % of quarter 2)

($ 81,900 * 40 %) + ( $ 98,700 * 60 %)

$ 32,760 + $ 59,220 = $ 91,980

Quarter 3 payments

(40 % of quarter 2) + ( 60 % of quarter 3)

($ 98,700 * 40 %) + ( $ 90,300 * 60 %)

$ 39,480 + $ 54,180 = $ 93.660

Quarter 4 payments

(40 % of quarter 3) + ( 60 % of quarter 4)

($ 90,300 * 40 %) + ( $ 72,600 * 60 %)

$ 36,120 + $ 43,560 = $ 79,680

Total payments for purchases for the year $ 320,060

Computation of direct labor cost

No of units * Estimated Direct labor hours * Labor rate per hour

Quarter 1 = 9,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 27.900

Quarter 2 = 12,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 37.200

Quarter 3 11,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 34.100

Quarter 4 10,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50 = $ 31.000

Total cost for Direct labour $ 130,200

notsponge [240]

Answer:

3,000 $100 bills equivalent to $300,000

Explanation:

The economic order quantity (EOQ) is the optimum quantity of a good to be purchased or required at a time in order to minimize ordering and carrying costs in inventory.

EOQ = the square root of [(2 times the annual demand in units times the incremental cost to process an order) divided by (the incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory)]

annual demand in units = 12,500 x 12 = 150,000
incremental costs to process an order = $300
incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory = 10% x 100 = $10

EOQ = √[(2 x 150,000 x $300) / $10] = √($90,000,000 / $10) = √9,000,000 = 3,000 bills

Suppose that a delivery company currently uses one employee per vehicle to deliver packages. Each driver delivers 60 packages pe

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a. What is the MRP per driver per day?

the marginal revenue product per driver = 60 packages x $20 = $1,200 per day

b. Now suppose that a union forces the company to place a supervisor in each vehicle at a cost of $300 per supervisor per day. The presence of the supervisor causes the number of packages delivered per vehicle per day to rise to 60 packages per day What is the MRP per supervisor per day? By how much per vehicle per day do firm profits fall after supervisors are introduced?

if the drivers were already delivering 60 packages per day without the supervisor, then the addition of the supervisor doesn't change anything. So the MRP of the supervisor is $0. That means that the company's profits will decrease by $300 per day due to the supervisors.

c. How many packages per day would each vehicle have to deliver in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

$300 / 20 = 15 packages per day
in order to maintain the profit per vehicle, each team of delivery man + supervisor should be able to deliver 75 packages per day.

d. Suppose that the number of packages delivered per day cannot be increased but that the price per deliver might potentially be raised. What price would the firm have to charge for each delivery in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

$300 / 60 = $5
the price of each package delivered should increase by $5 to $25 per package.
