With current technology, suppose a firm is producing 400 loaves of banana bread daily. Also assume that the least-cost combinati

on of resources in producing those loaves is 5 units of labor, 7 units of land, 2 units of capital, and 1 unit of entrepreneurial ability, selling at prices of $40, $60, $60, and $20, respectively. If the firm can sell these 400 loaves at $2 per unit, what is its total revenue? Its total cost? Its profit or loss? Will it continue to produce banana bread? If this firm’s situation is typical for the other makers of banana bread, will resources flow toward or away from this bakery good?

The total revenue is $800 while the total cost is $780, and the profit is $20.The firm will continue to produce banana loaves and resources will flow towards the bakery

Explanation:

The number of loaves produced by the firm=400

Selling price per unit is $2

Revenue will be: 400*$2=$800

Total cost will be calculated as;

Labor 5 units @$40 = 5*$40=$200

Land is 7 units @$60= 7*$60=$420

Capital is 2 units @$60=$120

Entrepreneurial ability 1 unit @$20=1*$20=$20

Total cost =$(200+420+120+20)=$780

Profit= Revenue-total cost= $800-$780=$20

The firm will continue to produce banana loaves because its making a profit of $20

The resources such as labor, land and capital  will flow towards the business as factors of production to produce more profit.Current resources flowing to the business are good though there is room for improvements in terms of more profits.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The answer is 1950000

Explanation:

✓ Goods in transit on December 31, 2008:

Goods amounting to 100000 will be added into purchases of the year-end because they have already been sold as risk and rewards have been transferred to the Barlow that is goods have been physically dispatched to the Barlow. Hence this will increase accounts payable by 100000.

✓Goods in transit lost:

These words will also be included in the purchases and accordingly in the accounts payable irrespective of the fact that these have been destroyed. These goods were dispatched to the Barlow and therefore risk and rewards also been transferred hence purchase is done from Barlow's perspective.

So:

Total accounts payables are as under

Opening balance: 180000

Goods in transit reached next year:100000

Goods in transit lost:50000

Total: 1950000

Answer following question with true or false and explain.A firm's profit margin is 5%, its debt/assets ratio is 56%, and its div
maria [59]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

As a company's sales level increases, its current assets will increase, e.g. cash, inventories, accounts receivables increase. generally, also the fixed assets increase, specially if the firm was previous producing at full capacity even before total sales increased. But as sales increase, not only do the company's assets increase, its current liabilities generally increase also, and its profits should increase. In this case, 60% of the company's profits are reinvested in the company, and the liabilities represent more than half of the total assets. Therefore, it is possible that the company needs external financing, but it is also possible that it doesn't. You cannot assume that the company will necessarily need external financing, because retained earnings  and the increase in current liabilities might be enough to finance the company's growth in sales.
