South central airlines (sca) operates a commuter flight between atlanta and charlotte. the regional jet holds 50 passengers and

currently sca books only up to 50 reservations. past data shows that sca always sells all 50 reservations but that, on average, two passen- gers do not show up. as a result, with 50 reservations, the flight is often being flown with empty seats. to capture additional profit, sca is considering an overbooking strategy in which they would accept 52 reservations even though the airplane holds only 50 passen- gers. sca believes that it will be able to always book all 52 reservations. the probability distribution for the number of passengers showing up when 52 reservations are accepted is estimated as follows:

elena-s [515]

Answer:

393 units will need to be sold to breakeven

Explanation:

Break even point is the point where a Company makes neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Step 1 : Calculate new variables

New Sales = $250 x 1.40 = $350

Variable Costs = $250 x 30 % = $75

New Fixed Costs = $120,000 x 90 % = $108,000

Step 2 : Break even (units)

Break even (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

                               = $108,000 ÷ ($350 - $75)

                               = 393 units

Thus, 393 units will need to be sold to breakeven

Answer:

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $664 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable overhead 0.2 hours $ 5.10 per hour

The company used 1,660 direct labor-hours to produce this output. The actual variable overhead cost was $7,802.

<u>To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity

Actual rate= 7,802/1,660= $4.7

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (5.1 - 4.7)*1,660

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $664 favorable

Bonnie has decided to begin a retirement savings program where she will contribute to an account that will accumulate tax free t
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete since the interest rate is not included and so is the requirement.  However, if it asking for the annual contributions Bonnie can make, you can calculate it as shown below and assuming a discount rate of 10%;

Explanation:

Since Bonnie's goal is $300,000, this will be the future value and you can use a financial calculator to solve for recurring deposits (PMT);

Time to retirement; N = 12

Interest rate; I/Y = 10%

Future value; FV = 300,000

One time present cashflow; PV = 0

then compute the recurring deposits; CPT PMT = 14,028.995

Therefore, she will need to contribute $14,029 every year to meet her goal.

Presented below are incomplete manufacturing cost data.
rjkz [21]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the missing amount is as follows:

As we know that

The total manufacturing cost = Direct Materials Used  + Direct Labor Used + Factory Overhead

So,

(1)

= $42,700 + $64,200 + $52500

= $159,400

(2)

= $298,000 - $78,100 - $144,000

= $75,900

(3)

= $314,000 - $57,400 - $113,000

= $143,600
