Answer: The correct answer is d) Frame of reference.

Explanation: Frame of reference refers to a set of criteria or stated values used in measurements or inferring judgements.

The question "Don't you agree that something must be done to save social security?" is a typical case of a frame of reference as it can be inferred that the interviewer already had a frame of mind as such was leading the President.

A liquid company produces hand sanitizer which has demand of 300,000 units per year.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

EOQ =   =  15,491.93 units

Optimal order interval   18.8 days   (19.36  orders in year)

Total cost = $150,774.60

Explanation:

<em>The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order size that minimizes the balance of ordering cost and holding cost. At the EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.</em>

It is computed using he formulae below

EOQ = √ (2× Co× D)/Ch

<em>Co- ordering cost per order- 20, </em>

<em>Ch -Holding cost per unit per annum- 10%× $0.5=  0.05</em>

<em>Annual demand: D- 300,000</em>

EOQ = √(2× 20 * 2,580)/(10%× 0.5)

       =  15,491.93 units

Assuming 365 days, the optimal order interval in dates

Number of orders per year

= annual demand/EOQ

= 300,000/ 15,491.93

= 19.36 times

<u><em>in days:</em></u>

= EOQ/300,000 × 365 days

=   (15,491.93/ 300,000) × 365 days

= 18.8 days

Total annual cost =

<em>Total cost Purchase cost + Carrying cost + ordering cost </em>

                                                                                 $

Purchase cost = $0.5 × 300,000 =              150,000

Carrying cost = (15,491.93/2) * 10%*0.5 =       387.29

Ordering cost = (300,000/15,491.93 ) × 20 = <u>387.29</u>

Total cost                                                      1<u>50,774.60</u><u> </u>

Beau Corporation sells a unit of its product for​ $250 per​ unit, while its variable costs per unit are​ $75. Fixed cost are bud
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Number of units that must be sold to earn the target profit is 3000 units.

The contribution margin ratio is 0.70

Explanation:

We will use the break even analysis modified for target profit to calculate the number of units needed to earn the desired

The break even point in units is calculated by dividing the fixed cost by the contribution margin per unit. To calculate the number of units required to earn the desired profit, we add the desired profit to fixed cost and divide it by the contribution margin per unit.

Contribution margin per unit = 250 - 75  =  $175

Number of units required to earn target profit = (325000 + 200000) / 175

Number of units required to earn target profit = 3000 units

The contribution margin ratio is = 175 / 250   =  0.7 or 70%

Dollar Sales required to earn target profit = $4,812,500

"on may 1, mesa verde, inc. purchased a 2-year insurance policy for $15,600. prepaid insurance was debited for the entire amount
N76 [4]

The journal entry on May 1 was:

A debit to Prepaid Insurance for 15,600


And a credit to cash for 15,600

 

Prepaid Insurance is the share of an insurance premium that has been paid in early and has not finished as of the balance sheet date.

The monthly insurance payment for two years is computed by 15,600/24 months which is $650 per month.

 

At December 31 the adjusting entry would be:

A debit to Insurance Expense 5,200

And a credit to Prepaid Insurance for 5,200

 

5,200 is computed by:

650 x 8 months (starting from May 1 to December 31) = 5,200

The price of digital cameras fell because of improvements in production technology. As a result, the demand for non-digital came
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The answer is: B) The statement is false. A decrease in the price of digital cameras would decrease the demand for non-digital cameras, but a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would not cause the demand for non-digital cameras to decrease.

Explanation:

Suppose we are not currently living in 2019, instead we are back 12 years to 2007 (before the iPhone). Back then , digital cameras were still used by common "unprofessional" users. Digital cameras were an improvement compared to non-digital cameras, so the price of non-digital cameras were much lower than their digital counterparts.

If the price of digital cameras decreased, then the price of non-digital cameras would decrease also. For example, if luxury car companies like Mercedes Benz started selling sedan cars for $20,000, Ford and Chevrolet would be forced to lower the price of their cars since they wouldn't be able to compete with MB at the same price.

But a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would never decrease their demand. Something else would have caused that decrease. Probably digital cameras became so cheap that everyone could afford one and since they were so much better than non-digital cameras, people simply stopped buying non-digital cameras.
