Answer:
Answer is option a, i.e. have been combined to develop a procedure that uses the best of each.
Explanation:
In project management, PERT i.e. project evaluation and review technique is used as a statistical tool that is used to assess the overall work that is done to complete a certain project. In order to complete a particular task, there can be 'n' number of paths or ways. The best decision of selecting a pathway that is time-saving as well as cost-saving is to be found out. This chosen path is then referred to as 'Critical path.' Hence, PERT and CPM can be understood as two faces of a single coin, and have been combined to develop a procedure that uses the best of each.
Answer:
The president of Riggs has missed something.
She should make the Sail instead of buying because its cheaper to manufacture than purchasing it outside.
Explanation:
<u>Cost of Manufacturing the Sails:</u>
Direct materials $93
Direct Labor $83
Total $173
The president of Riggs has included the $90 overhead based on $78,000 of annual fixed overhead that is allocated using normal capacity in the cost of manufacturing the sail which is incorrect.
Riggs Company is operating at 80 % of full capacity, hence utelizing the 20% excess capacity would not expand its fixed costs.
Thus said the current fixed cost are irrelevent for this decison and would be incurred whether or not Riggs Company utilizes the excess capacity
<u>Conclusion:</u>
The cost of making the sail is $173 which is lower than the cost of buying them at $ 258.
I would advise The president of Riggs to make the sail by utilizing the excess capacity since its cheaper than purchasing it outside.
Answer:
Equilibrium price increases while the effect on equilibrium quantity is indeterminate.
Explanation:
Due to the higher cost of equipping and maintaining schools, the supply of schools would fall. This would increase the price of schools and the supply would fall.
Increased desire for college education would increase the demand for schools and the price of schools.
Taking the effect of demand and supply together, the equilibrium price would rise and there would be indeterminate effect on quantity
