Answer:

Correct Answer:

The correct sequence of crossing include:

<em>First, the Analyst takes the flashlight and crosses the bridge with the Associate. This takes 2 minutes. </em>The Analyst then returns across the bridge with the flashlight taking 1 more minute (3 minutes passed so far). The Analyst gives the flashlight to the VP and the VP and MD cross together taking 10 minutes (13 minutes passed so far).

The VP gives the flashlight to the Associate, who recrosses the bridge taking 2 minutes (15 minutes passed so far). The Analyst and Associate now cross the bridge together taking 2 more minutes.<em> Now, all are across the bridge at the meeting in exactly 17 minutes.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The above is the only logical way through which all of them could be able to cross the bridge while still arriving to the meeting at/on the exact time.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Total cost= $75,315

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The company's average cost per unit is $22 when it produces 2700 birdcages.

Fixed cost= $5700

We need to calculate the total cost for 3,500 birdcages.

<u>First, we need to calculate the unitary cost per unit:</u>

<u />

The average cost is calculated as follow:

Average cost= total cost/ number of units

22= total cost/2,700

Total cost= 59,400

If fixed costs are $5,700, total and unitary variable costs are:

Total variable cost= 59,400 - 5,700= 53,700

Unitary variable cost= 53,700/2,700= $19.89 per unit

<u>Now, we can determine the function cost:</u>

Total cost= fixed cost + variable cost

Total cost= 5,700 + 19.89*x

For 3,500 units:

Total cost= 5.700 + 19.89*3,500

Total cost= $75,315
