At the beginning of 2000 Devonte's house was worth 230 thousand dollars and Aidan's house was worth 124 thousand dollars. At the

beginning of 2003, Devonte's house was worth 178 thousand dollars and Aidan's house was worth 158 thousand dollars. Assume that the values of both houses vary at an exponential rate a. Write a function fthat determines the value of Devonte's house (in thousands of dollars) in terms of the number of years t since the beginning of 2000. b. Write a function g that determines the value of Aidan's house (in thousands of dollars) in terms of the number of years t since the beginning of 2000. c. How many years after the beginning of 2000 will Devonte's and Aidan's house have the same value?

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: P=90X+120Y+150Z

Constraints:

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

Explanation:

As the question is not complete, the complete question is found online and is attached herewith.

Let the number of product 1 to be produced is X, that of product 2 is Y and product 3 is Z

so  the maximizing function is the profit function which is given as

P=90X+120Y+150Z

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 10 type 1 machines so the total number of machine 1 hours are 40*10=400 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1, product 2 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1 and product 3 uses 1 hour of machine 1 so

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 6 type 2 machines so the total number of machine 2 hours are 40*6=240 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 3 machine hours of machine 2, product 2 uses 4 machine hours of machine 2 and product 3 uses 6 hour of machine 2 so

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 8 type 3 machines so the total number of machine 3 hours are 40*8=320 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 4 machine hours of machine 3, product 2 uses 6 machine hours of machine 3 and product 3 uses 5 hour of machine 3 so

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

Now as the machine 1 is used as 2X+2Y+Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

Now as the machine 2 is used as 3X+4Y+6Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

Now as the machine 3 is used as 4X+6Y+5Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

Now the workers are available for 35 hours so the worker available at the machine 1 is given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}

That of machine 2 is given as

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}

That of machine 3 is given as

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}

As the total number of workers is 19 so the constraint is given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

So the Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: P=90X+120Y+150Z

Constraints:

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

Precision Aviation had a profit margin of 7.00%, a total assets turnover of 1.4, and an equity multiplier of 1.8. What was the f
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

17.64%

Explanation:

Precision aviation has a profit margin of 7%

The total assets turnover is 1.4

The equity multiplier is 1.8

Therefore the ROE can be calculated as follows

= Total assets turnover × equity multiplier × profit margin

= 1.4 × 1.8 × 7

= 17.64%

Hence the ROE is 17.64%

The manager at Vertical Wire Productions reported total sales revenue of $800,000. The variable expenses were $600,000, and ther
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

BEP_{dollars} = 500,000

Explanation:

<u>The first step</u> will be  get the contribtuion margin:

Sales\: Revenue - Variable \:Cost = Contribution \:Margin

800,000 - 6000,000 = 200,000

This is the amount after variables cost used to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.

Second, we calcualte the contribution margin ratio

\frac{Contribution \:Margin}{Sales\: Revenue} = Contribution\: Margin\: Ratio

200,000/800,000 = 0.25

Per dollar of sales 25 cents are available to pay the fixed cost.

Now, we calculate the break even point in dollars

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution\: Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

\frac{125,000}{.025} = 500,000

Because Mei-ling has had such a successful first few months, she is considering other opportunities to develop her business. One
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

1. "Would you consider these mixers to be inventory or should they be classified as supplies or equipment?" Why?

The mixers will be part of merchandise inventory since Mei-ling is purchasing them and will later resell them at a higher price and hopefully make a profit. Products classified as supplies or equipment are used by the company in their day to day activities and are not meant for resale.

2. "I’ve learned a little about keeping track of inventory using both the perpetual and the periodic systems of accounting for inventory. Which system do you think is better? Which one would you recommend for the type of inventory that I want to sell?"

The perpetual inventory system is much better than the periodic inventory system, but it is also more expensive to use. Depending on the number of mixers that are going to be sold, you can do it hand or use a computer software which would make things much easier, but you need to spend time (labor) and money to do so.

If Mei-ling is expecting to sell only a small number of mixers, then she could use a periodic inventory system which is much more simple and is only updated every certain period of time (monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually). This is a cheaper system but it is the best alternative.

3. "How often do I need to count inventory if I maintain it using the perpetual system? Do I need to count inventory at all?"

Even if you use the perpetual inventory system, you will eventually need to physically count your inventory in order to make sure that the records have been properly made, but you could do it once or twice a year. Again it depends on the total units that she expects to have in inventory.

Pauley Company provides home health care. Pauley charges $35/hour for professional care. Variable costs are $21/hour and fixed c
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

the variable cost ratio is 60 % (option d)

Explanation:

The variable cost ratio (VCR) represents the ratio of variable costs to sales. Therefore

VCR = (total variable costs)/(total sales)

since

total variable costs = variable costs * services provided = $21/hour * 12000 hours/year = $252000 /year

total sales = price of service * services provided = $35/hour * 12000 hours/year = $420000 /year

thus

VCR = ($252000 /year) / ($420000 /year) = 0.6 = 60 %
