Answer:

6 pounds of dried apples and 14 pounds of dried apricots

Explanation:

A = dried apples

B = dried apricots

1.3A + 1.6B = 1.51 x 20 = 30.2

A + B = 20

A = 20 - B

Replace A:

1.3(20 - B) + 1.6B = 30.2

26 - 1.3B + 1.6B = 30.2

0.3B = 30.2 - 26 = 4.2

B = 4.2 / 0.3 = 14

A = 6

Riggs Company purchases sails and produces sailboats. It currently produces 1,200 sailboats per year, operating at normal capaci
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

It is more convenient to produce the sails in house.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Riggs purchases sails at $ 250 each, but the company is considering using the excess capacity to manufacture the sails instead. The manufacturing cost per sail would be $ 100 for direct materials, $ 80 for direct labor, and $ 90 for overhead. The $ 90 overhead includes $ 78,000 of annual fixed overhead that is allocated using normal capacity.

Because there will not be an increase in fixed costs, we will not have them into account.

Variable overhead= 90 - (78,000/1,200)= 25

Unitary variable cost= 100 + 80 + 25= 205

It is more convenient to produce the sails in house.
