Rhett corporation manufactures and sells dress shirts. each shirt (unit) requires 3 yards of cloth. selected data from rhett's m
marissa [1.9K]

Rhett corporation's  Plan on budgeted purchasing in may is 97,600 yards

Explanation:

Opening inventory of May = Closing inventory of April = 2100 yards

Budgeted production of May = 32,000 units

Closing inventory of May  = 2800 yards

Required inventory for producing 32,000 units

= 32,000 × 3 yards (per unit production of shirt) = 96,000 yards

 Plan on purchasing in may

 = Total yards needed - opening inventory + closing inventory

 = 96,000 - 2100 + 2800 = 97,600 yards

= 96,000 - 2100 + 2800 = 97,600 yards

A firm sells a product in a purely competitive market. The marginal cost of the product at the current output of 200 units is $4
posledela

Answer:

D. Should Shut Down

Explanation:

A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .

If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.

However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.

Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.
