Answer:
a. 1.51 containers
b. Fewer
Explanation:
The computations are shown below:
a. The number of containers would be
= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces
= 70 × 0.75 × (1 + 0.15) ÷ 40
= 1.51 containers
The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.75
b. If the system improves, the fewer containers are required i.e 2 containers approximate because inefficiency factor got decreased
Answer:
D. decreases initially and then is horizontal.
Explanation:
A horizontal long run average cost curve reflects increase in cost proportionate to output, so the firm's long run average cost curve will fall initially and then become horizontal.
Answer:
b) $665,000.
Explanation:
Primer income: $625,000
SealCoat income: $50,000
Primer interest in SealCoat is 80% therefore primer is a parent company to SealCoat and is entitled to $40,000 (80%*$50,000) on SealCoat income.
Therefore, consolidated net income for 2013 is: $665,000 (625,000+40000)
Answer:
$26.50
Explanation:
The computation of the current value of the common stock is shown below:
Current price is
= Current year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - Growth rate)
where
Current year dividend is $1.59
The Required rate of return is 12%
ANd, the growth rate is 6%
Now place these values to the above formula
So, the current price of the common stock is
= ($1.50 × 1.06) ÷ (0.12 - 0.06)
= $1.59 ÷ 0.06
= $26.50
