Answer:

$2.8 billion per year

Explanation:

Currently the amount of surplus milk in the US is really high since the demand per capita for milk has decreased by 40% in the last 50 years. Excess milk is turned into cheese since it doesn't last very long, and the current amount of surplus cheese is 1.4 billion pounds.

If yous need on average 4 pints of milk per pound of hard cheese and 2 pints per pound of soft cheese, that means that the total surplus milk production is between 2.8 and 5.6 billion pints.

If the government is going to purchase that excess milk, then it is going to need at least $2.8 billion per year.

20% of students in a class go to professor during office hours. of those who go 30% seek minor clarification. 70% seek major cla
aksik [14]

a. The probability that a student goes to seek for minor clarification from the professor during office hours = 6%.

b. The probability that a student goes to the professor for major clarification = 14%.

Data and Calculations:

Percentage of students in the class who go to the professor to seek clarifications = 20% (a)

Percentage of students in the class who do not go to the professor to seek clarifications = 80% (100% - 20%) (b)

Percentage of (a) who seek minor clarification = 30%

Percentage of (a) who seek major clarification = 70%

Probability of (a) seeking minor clarification = 6% (20% x 30%)

Probability of (a) seeking major clarification = 14% (20% x 70%)

Thus, the probability of students seeking minor clarification is 6% while the probability of students seeking major clarification is 14%.

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 10,500 to 10,501 units is closest to $11.40

Explanation:

It is important to note that the question requires The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 10,500 to 10,501 units

From Production of 10500 units to 10501 units, there is an increment of 1 unit.

<u>Lets find the incremental cost of 1 unit.</u>

1.To do this we only consider variable manufacturing costs only.

2.Since increase is within the relevant range, the fixed manufacturing overheads do not change.

3.Also Ignore all non- manufacturing overhead as they do not form part of manufacturing costs.

                                                         Extra 1 Unit

Direct materials                                    $6.70

Direct labor                                           $3.50

Variable manufacturing overhead     $1.20

Total Cost                                             $11.40
