Answer:
The correct answer is: tier-one suppliers.
Explanation:
The first level suppliers are all those autonomous companies or strategic commercial units that carry out value-added, operational or management activities in the commercial processes, generating a specific performance for a particular client or market. For their part, the support members are the companies that simply provide the resources, knowledge and equipment for the supply chain primary. For example, support companies include carriers, banks that lend money, the owner of the building that provides warehouse space, companies that provide production equipment, etc. They are suppliers with the minimum level of integration.
First-tier suppliers compete strongly with each other for the market. There are hundreds of them; Some are very large companies with annual sales of billions of dollars. Some of the top-level suppliers also operate at the lower levels of the chain, either through vertical integration, or supplying parts to their rivals in the first level.
Answer:
both
- United Continental with a capital expenditure of 60.68%
- Southwest Airlines with a capital expenditure of 51.38%
Explanation:
Since United Continental's purchases of Boeing planes represent over 60% of their capital expenditures, this means that Boeing had to be the primary plane supplier. Even if the company purchased planes form other manufacturer, their purchases would not even be 40% of the company's purchases.
The same applies to Southwest Airlines, even though the purchases from Boeing are a little lower, they are still over 51%. This means the company could not have spent more money on purchasing planes from another company. The maximum purchase from another airplane manufacturer would have been less than 49% at most.
Besides the previous analysis, you must also consider that the company spends money on things besides airplanes, e.g. new training facilities, equipment, computer software, other vehicles, etc.
Answer: $5,681
Explanation:
As this is a residential property the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) depreciation rate is applicable.
Also as it was sold during the month, the mid month convention is also in effect which states that when an asset is sold during the month, only 15 days of that month are considered for depreciation assuming a 30 day month.
The straight line rate for MACRS after the first year for this residential property is 3.636% per annum.
The asset didn't last the entire year so this needs to be accounted for.
Out of 12 months it lasted 7 months till July and 15 days in August which means it lasted 7.5/12 of the year.
Depreciation for the year is therefore,
= 250,000 * 3.636% * 7.5/12
= $5,681
Answer:
b. $6.50 per machine-hour
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is
= Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost ÷ Total machine-hours + Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour
= $294,000 ÷ 70,000 + $2.30
= $4.20 + $2.30
= $6.50 per machine-hour
Therefore, all the other information that is given are irrelevant. Hence, ignored it
