Answer:

False.

Explanation:

(1) Units produced = 24 units of output

At the 24th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $5

Marginal cost = $4

MR ≠ MC

At the 25th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4.50

Marginal cost = $4.50

MR = MC

At the 26th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4

Marginal cost = $5

MR ≠ MC

A firm maximizes its profit at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost i.e. MR = MC.

It is clear from the above scenario that this firm doesn't stop at 24 units of output because at this point of production profit maximizing condition is not fulfilled which means MR ≠ MC.

This firm should stopped at 25 units of output where marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost from the 25th unit of output.

If the company budgets to need 4000 units to sell for a month, has a beginning inventory of 1000 units and a desired ending inve
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

5,500 units

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

Need to sell the units in a month = 4,000 units

Beginning inventory = 1,000 units

Desired ending inventory = 2,500 units

So, by considering the above information, the units to be produced is

= Desired ending inventory + need to sell the units in a month - beginning inventory

= 2,500 units + 4,000 units - 1,000 units

= 5,500 units

A creamery shop sells its special ice cream for $4.50 a quart. It costs them $3.00 a quart to make it. The daily demand for this
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the service level and the corresponding optimal stocking level is shown below:

Given that

Selling price = SP = $4.50

Cost price = CP  = $3.00

So,

Salvage value =  V  = $1.50

Average daily demand (d) = 35 quarts

The  standard deviation of daily demand  = 4 quarts

based on the above information

Overage cost = (Co) is

= CP - V

= $3.00 - $1.50

= $1.50

Now

Underage cost= (Cu)

= SP - CP

= $4.50 - $3.00

= $1.50

So,  

Service level is

= Cu ÷ (Co + Cu)

= 1.50 ÷ (1.50 + 1.50)

= 1.50 ÷ 3.00

= 0.50

= 50%

Now

At 50 % service level, the value of Z is 0

So,

Optimal stocking level is

= d + Z × standard deviation

= 35 + (0  × 4)

= 35 + 0  

= 35 quarts
