Answer:

Total Activity Cost = $238,750

Activity Cost per unit = $477.50/unit

Explanation:

Activity Rate for each Activity of Company Southeastern Papers:

Production = $220,000 / 1,100 mh = $200/mh

Setup = $117,000 / 260 setups = $450/setup

Moving = $21,000 / 600 moves = $35/move

Shipping = $105,000 / 1,000 customer orders = $105/customer order

Product Engineering = $102,000 / 170 test runs = $600/test run

Computer Paper Total Activity Cost and Activity Per Unit Cost:

Production = 400 mh x $200 per mh = $80,000

Setup = 80 setups x $450 per setup = $36,000

Moving = 230 moves x $35 per move = $8,050

Shipping = 310 customer order x $105 per customer order = $32,550

Product Engineering = 50 test run x $600 per test run = $30,000

Total Activity Cost = $80,000 + $36,000 + $8,050 + $32,550 + $30,000 = $186,600

Activity Cost Per Unit = $186,600 / 1,000 units = $186.60/unit

Newsprint Total Activity Cost and Activity Per Unit Cost:

Production = 500 mh x $200 per mh = $100,000

Setup = 30 setups x $450 per setup = $13,500

Moving = 70 moves x $35 per move = $2,450

Shipping = 140 customer order x $105 per customer order = $15,225

Product Engineering = 15 test run x $600 per test run = $9,000

Total Activity Cost = $100,000 + $13,500 + $2,450 + $15,225 + $9,000 = $140,175

Activity Cost Per Unit = $140,175 / 1,250 units = $112.14/unit

Specialty Paper Total Activity Cost and Activity Per Unit Cost:

Production = 200 mh x $200 per mh = $40,000

Setup = 150 setups x $450 per setup = $67,500

Moving = 300 moves x $35 per move = $10,500

Shipping = 550 customer order x $105 per customer order = $57,750

Product Engineering = 105 test run x $600 per test run = $63,000

Total Activity Cost = $40,000 + $67,500 + $10,500 + $57,750 + $63,000 = $238,750

Activity Cost Per Unit = $238,750 / 500 units = $477.50/unit

Selected financial data regarding current assets and current liabilities for two competing companies, Simon and Garfunkel, are p
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Please find the detailed answer in the explanation section

Explanation:

1. Current ratio = Curren assets / Curren liabilities.

For Simon:

Current assets are:

Cash and cash equivalents $ 620

Short-term investments $3,690

Net receivables $992

Inventory $510

Other current assets $335

Total current assets $6,147

Current liabilities are:

Accounts payable $7,220

Short-term debt $1,270

Other current liabilities. $0

Total current liabilities $8,490

So current asset is $6,147/$8,490

0.72:1

For Garfunkel:

Current assets are:

Cash and cash equivalents $2,920

Short-term investments $0

Net receivables $1,330

Inventory $203

Other current assets $477

Total current assets $4,930

Current liabilities are:

Accounts payable $4,285

Short-term debt $1,028

Other current liabilities. $1,306

Total current liabilities $6,619

So current asset is $4,930/$6,619

0.74:1

1b Simon current asset is 0.72 while Garfunkel's own is 0.74

Therefore Garfunkel with 0.74 has a better current ratio

2a. Acid-test ratio = total current assets minus Inventory / total current liabilities

For Simon:

($6,147 - $510) / $8,490

=0.66:1

For Garfunkel:

($4,930 - $203) / $6,619

=0.71:1

2b. Garfunkel with 0.71 has a better acid-test ratio

For the past 50 days, daily sales of a specialty product in a large grocery store have been recorded:Units Sold Number of Times1
Korolek [52]

Answer:

(A) what is the average number of units sold for 50 days: 820, 1830, 1040, 850, 6

(B) what is the standard deviation

(C) what is the average number of units sold for 5 days: 86, 23, 73, 40, 95

(D) can we conclude that the sales are random?

Explanation:

(A)

(820×10) + (1830×10) + (1040×10) + (850×10) + (6×10) = 45,460

45,460÷50 = 909.2units

(B)

(909.2-820)^2 × 10 = total squared mean deviation of the first 10 sales or 10days - sales of 820 per day

Doing same for the other 4 values, the total of squared mean deviation for the 5 days is

16922128÷50 = 338442.56 = Variance of the set of sales values

Standard Deviation is the square root of Variance so it is 581.758

(C) Mean of random units sold in 5 days: 317÷5 = 63.4

(D) for 50 days, mean sale was 909.2 units

For 5 days, random mean sale was 63.4

50÷5=10

909.2÷63.4=14.34

Yes, we can conclude that the sales are random

Real GDP per person in Northland is $30,000, while real GDP in Southland is $10,000, However, Northland's real GDP per person is
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

D. Southland's real GDP per person will eventually be greater than Northland's.

Explanation:

If we compare the expansion of the GDP per person of both countries in the long run -100 years from now-, eventually, southland's real GDP will be greater.

Northland: 30.000 * (1 + 1%) ^ 100 =  $81.144  

Southland: 10.000 * (1 + 3%)  ^ 100 =  $192.186  

<h3><em></em></h3><h3><em>Despite Southland is 3 times greater than Northland GDP per person, the consistent and greater rate of growth let us conclude that Southland's real GDP per person will eventually be greater than Northland's.</em></h3>
