Cost of Producing Guitars Carlota Music Company estimates that the marginal cost of manufacturing its Professional Series guitar

diamong [38]

Answer:

The total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month is C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500.

Explanation:

Given,

C '(x) = 0.008x + 90 ................................... (1)

To obtain the the total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month, we obtain the integral of equation (1) as follows:

$C(x)=\int\limits {C'(x)} \, dx = \int\limits {[0.008x + 90]} \, dx$

C(x) = (0.008 / 2) x^2 + 90x + F

C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + F .......................... (2)

Where F is the constant.

Since total cost is the addition of the total cost and total variable cost, the F in equation (2) represents the total fixed cost per month.

Since the fixed costs incurred by Carlota are $8500/month, this implies that F = 8,500.

Substituting F = 8,500 into equation (2), we have:

C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500 <-------------- Total cost per month

Therefore, the total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month is C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500.

The formula to be used is = annual payment x annuity factor

Annuity factor = {[(1+r) ^N ] - 1} / r

R = interest rate = 8.2 percent

N = number of years = 25

[(1.082^25) - 1 ] / 0.082 = 75.276598

75.276598 x $3,200 = $240,885.11

frozen [14]

Jill will not win because this is an illusory promise without consideration.

Explanation:

Even if Jill sues his boss Constance for not giving him the bonus that she had promised to give if her employee, Jill works with great focus and dedication, he will probably not win the case.

The reason for this is that it was just a promise and not a contract signed between that employer and that employee. It was just an illusory promise which is not enough to sue the person or the employer. So there was no benefit of doing it.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

1) variable cost = $1.56 per day

fixed costs = $1,395 per month

2) another aspect that increases or decreases electrical consumption is the weather. During very hot days, more people use the air conditioner, which increases electricity costs. Very cold weather will result in a similar increase in electric consumption.

Explanation:

Month Occupancy-Days Electrical Costs

January 1,736 $ 4,127

February 1,904 $ 4,207

March 2,356 $ 5,083

April 960 $ 2,857

May 360 $ 1,871

June 744 $ 2,696

July 2,108 $ 4,670

August 2,406 $ 5,148

September 840 $ 2,691

October 124 $ 1,588

November 720 $ 2,454

December 1,364 $ 3,529

variable cost = (highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (highest activity level - lowest activity level) = ($5,148 - $1,588) / (2,406 - 124) = $1.56 per day

fixed costs = $5,148 - ($1.56 x 2,406) = $1,395
