MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial wealth = $1000

Cost of lottery = $5

Winning = $500

Number of players or tickets = 100

Only one winner can emerge :

P(winning) = 1/100

P(Not winning) = 1 - 1/100 = 99/100

P __ 1/100 _________ 99/100

X : [1000 + (500-5)] ___ (1000-5)

P(X): ____1/100 _______ 99/100

X : _____ 1495 _________995

Expected value E(x) :

E(X) = ΣX*p(x) = (1/100)*1495 + (99/100)*995 = 1000

C.)

Possible winning = $500 ; p(x) = 1/100

Possible loss = - 5 ;p(x) = 99/100

500 * (1/100) = 5

-5 * (99/100) = - 4.95

Σ(5 + - 4.95) = 5 - 4.95 = 0.05

Hence, gamble is favorable since 0.05 > 0

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Inventory information:

DM:

Beginning = $59

Ending= $ 66

Direct materials purchased 5,260

Work-in-process

Beginning= $87

Ending= $79

Finished goods

Beginning= $998

Ending= $1,024

Other information:

Administrative costs $ 3,200

Depreciation (Factory) 3,330

Depreciation (Machines) 4,730

Direct labor 7,600

Indirect labor (Factory) 1,780

Indirect materials (Factory) 590

Property taxes (Factory) 240

Selling costs 1,180

Sales revenue 35,610

Utilities (Factory) 640

1) We need to calculate the production during the period.

Cost of manufactured period= Beginning work in progress inventory+ direct materials + direct labor + factory overhead - ending work in progress

Beginning work in progress inventory= 87

Direct materials= 59 + 5620 - 66= 5,613

Direct labor= 7,600

Factory overhead=Depreciation (Factory) + Depreciation (Machines) + Indirect labor (Factory) + Indirect materials (Factory) + Property taxes (Factory) + Utilities (Factory)= 3,330 + 4730 + 1780 + 590 + 240 + 640= $11,310

Ending work in progress=79

Cost of manufactured period=87+5613+7600+11310-79= $24,531

Cost of goods sold (COGS)= Beginning Inventory+Production during period−Ending Inventory

CGOS= 998 + 24531-1024= $24,505

Revenue= 35610

COGS= 24505 (-)

Gross profit= $11,105

Administrative cost= 3200

Selling costs= 1180

Total period costs= 4380 (-)

EBITDA= 6725
