Answer: 8.56crews

Explanation:

To get critical fractile probability SL,

We stock up the local trash collection capacity.Cost of overstocking by 1 ton =MC = 625/5 = $125Cost of understocking by 1 ton = additional cost of using outside trash pick up = MB = $650-$125 = $5

SL = Prob(RQ) = MB /( MB + MC) = 525/(125 + 525) = 0.8077 appropriate # of crews = 8.56 crews

The equivalent units for the month for the first department for material is 48,000 and for labor and overhead 46000.

What is the weighted average ?

  • One of three methods for valuing the stock in your company's inventory is the weighted average cost method, which establishes the average cost of all the products in your inventory based on their individual costs and the quantity of each item that is kept on hand.
  • The weighted average is used by businesses to calculate the amount that goes into inventory and the cost of products sold (COGS).
  • Due to the variety of inventory stock kinds or the same stock items being purchased at various times, a firm may pay varying costs when purchasing pieces of inventory.

Total units transferred = 42000

and, units of ending WIP = 6000(material),  4000(Labor),  4000(overhead)

So,

Equivalent units of production = 48000(material), 46000(Labor),  46000(overhead)

The equivalent units for the month for the first department for material is 48,000 and for labor and overhead 46000.

You are attending college in the fall and you need to purchase a computer. You must finance the purchase because your parents wi
rodikova [14]

The correct answer is installment credit. The explanation is below.

Installment credit allows you to purchase an item and then pay for it in installments. The reason that this would be the best option for you is that you do not have the money now to make the purchase, but you are able to make smaller monthly payments in order to purchase a computer.

Installment credit is better than revolving credit for new borrowers. Revolving credit would allow you to charge additional purchases on your revolving credit account. The installment plan only finances one item, rather than like a credit card, which is how revolving credit works. You would not choose non-installment credit because this would require you to make this payment all at once in a short period of time. It would not allow you to spread the payments out over time.
