Answer:
a. What is the MRP?
marginal revenue product = marginal product of labor x marginal revenue per output unit
MRP = 1,500 packages x $0.10 per package = $150
marginal resource cost (MRC) = $100 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should add the delivery truck because MRP is higher than MRC.
b. Now suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle doubles to $200 per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?
MRP = $150 (doesn't change from question a)
MRC = $200 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.
c. Next suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle falls back down to $100 per day, but, due to extremely congested freeways, an additional vehicle would only be able to deliver 750 packages per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?
MRP = 750 packages x $0.10 per package = $75
MRC = $100
The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.
Answer:
d. The decision maker must only stick to completely rational, mathematical analysis while selecting an alternative.
Explanation:
It is most ideal for a decision maker to stick to completely rational way of selecting an alternative as this means that the decision maker will only make choices that will be of maximum benefits and low costs. Factors such as personal feelings, or sense of obligation do not interefere when a decision maker sticks to completely rational and mathematical analysis method of decision making.
Answer: option C
Explanation: THIS CAN BE REPRESENTED AS FOLLOWS :-
If we eliminate the product there would be no sales, no variable expenses and therefore, no contribution.
sales = nil
-variable expenses= <u>nil</u>
contribution = nil
- fixed expenses = <u>56,000</u>
NET LOSS = <u> (56000)</u>
.
NOTE :-
Fixed expense = (140,000)*(40%)= 56,000
.
.
Thus increase in loss would be 56000- 50,000=6000
Answer:
Was higher.
Explanation:
We have to use a little bit of logci to answer this question, we just have to keep in mind that Aggregate expenditure is the cost of all of the products and services offered in a nation, so ig the business inventories, which are basically the inventories that the stores have, if this go down it means that previously produced goods and services are being sold, this increases the aggregate expenditure, and Gross domestic product is semi-stable, so aggreagate expenditure will be higher than GDP.
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
Holding costs are the costs that.has to do with the storage of inventory that were not sold. costs and they are storage space, price of damaged or spoilt goods, labor, and insurance.
It should be noted that with regard to holding cost, increasing peak capacity will be expected to reduce since the capacity is typically inversely proportional to the theory of the holding cost as there may be a reduction in the holding cost so as to increase the capacity.
