Product D

Explanation:

The contribution margin will be used for this assessment

Contribution margin is the selling price of an item less the associated variable selling cost to determine the extra profit for each unit of an item sold.

However , the grinding hour being the constraint in this scenario , the contribution per minute of production will be used.

                                     A              B                 C                 D

Direct materials        16.60      20.50         13.50         16.20

Direct labor               18.60        22.00        16.40         10.40

Variable Man.            5.40          6.60           9.10            6.10

Variable selling C.     3.60         4.10            3.80           4.50  

Selling price              83.70        76.10          72.90        67.60

Contribution/unit      39.50        22.90       30.10           30.40

Minute /unit                2.50          1.60           1.20            0.8

Pastoria Enterprises has scheduled raw material purchases of $100,000 in January, $130,000 in February, and $150,000 in March. T
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate how much will be disbursed by the company in February.

Firstly , we know that the company disburses 75% in the month of purchase and 25% during the month after purchase.

Now, 75% of $130,000 would be disbursed as February’s own payment:

Mathematically 75/100 * 130,000 = 97,500

Also, we should not forget that the company disburses 25% of previous month during the current. That is 25/100 * 100,000 = 25,000

Total amount disbursed is thus 25,000 + 97,500 = $122,500

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: 9.2%

Explanation:

The interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be calculated thus:

Firstly, we will calculate the previous risk premium on BBB bonds which will be:

= 11.5% - 8.7% = 2.8%

Then, the new risk premium on BBB bonds will be:

= Previous risk premium / 2

= 2.8% / 2

= 1.4%

Then, the interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be:

= 7.8% + 1.4%

= 9.2%

ozzi

Therefore, it is correct to state that in a free enterprise system, the offer and demand of the consumer for a product or service that will be the determinant of the success or failure of an organization.

As an example of an entrepreneur, we can mention Steve Jobs, who created one of the largest technology companies in the world, Apple. The free enterprise system was one of the reasons for Apple to succeed in becoming one of the most valued companies in the world, due to the fact that it brought innovative products to the market that became examples of products of value to consumers, which made company to grow and become so successful in the market. If the company operated in a government-controlled market, it would probably have to follow specific rules and restrictions for the production of its products that could limit the company, and its performance could be restricted and not as innovative as the company in the market, which is one of the reasons why it achieved success.
