Damm [24]

Answer:

Labor productivity in units per labor hour for Deluxe car = 0.19 per hour

Labor productivity in units per labor hour for Limited car = 0.24 per hour

Labor productivity in dollar of output per dollar of labor expense for Deluxe car = $98.75

Labor productivity in dollar of output per dollar of labor expense for Limited car = $128.69

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete and its data are merged together. The complete question with the sorted data is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Two types of cars (Deluxe and Limited) were produced by a car manufacturer last year. Quantities sold, price per unit, and labor hours are given below.

QUANTITY $/UNIT

Deluxe car 3,655 units sold $7,700/car

Limited car 5,850 units sold $9,200/car

Labor, Deluxe 19,000 hours $15/hour

Labor, Limited 24,600 hours $17/hour

What is the labor productivity for each car? Provide two sets of figures: units per labor hour, and dollar of output per dollar of labor expense. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

For each type of car, the following formulae can be used:

Labor productivity in units per labor hour = Units sold / Labor hours ……. (1)

Labor productivity in dollar of output per dollar of labor expense = (Units sold * Price per car) / (Labor hours / Labor rate per hour) ……………. (2)

Using equation (1), we have:

Labor productivity in units per labor hour for Deluxe car = 3,655 / 19,000 = 0.19 per hour

Labor productivity in units per labor hour for Limited car = 5,850 / 24,600 = 0.24 per hour

Using equation (2), we have:

Labor productivity in dollar of output per dollar of labor expense for Deluxe car = (3,655 * $7,700) / (19,000 * $15) = $98.75

Labor productivity in dollar of output per dollar of labor expense for Limited car = (5,850 * $9,200) / (24,600 * $17) = $128.69

These can be translated into a table as follows:

Labor Productivity

Units/hour Dollars

Deluxe Car 0.19/hour $98.75

Limited Car 0.24/hour $128.69

Parsley, a world-famous chef, signs a contract to give lessons in French cooking to Curry. Parsley wants to transfer his duties

Margarita [4]

Answer:

C. <u>not valid because performance depends on Parsley's personal skills</u>

Explanation:

A valid contract refers to an agreement entered into by parties which legally binds both parties and is enforceable under the law.

For a contract to be termed as valid, it must be performed by the parties to it.

Performance clause in a valid contract refers to doing or acting in a way as is required by the terms of the contract.

In the given case, Parsley signed a contract to provide services i.e provide French cooking lessons to Curry. Later, Parsley wants to transfer his duties to Relish.

The transfer will not be valid since the performance i.e service to be provided by Parsley are of personal nature and the consideration is based upon that. No two individuals can provide exact services.

Connor Corp. has large amount of data that they are trying to analyze from the last 15 years. They have an arithmetic sales grow

MrRa [10]

Answer:

11.14%

Explanation:

Blume's formula is used to combine both arithmetic and geometric returns. This is because using arithmetic growth rate exclusively would be overly optimistic for longer time horizons and on the other hand, using geometric growth rates exclusively would be overly pessimistic for short time horizons.

Using the attached formula, plug in the given numbers;

R(T) would be the sale growth rate we need to calculate.

R(T) = $\frac{5-1}{15-1} *0.09 + \frac{15-5}{15-1} *0.12$

R(T) =0.0257 + 0.0857

R(T) = 0.1114 as a decimal

Therefore, the forecast sales growth would be 11.14%
