Answer:

Number of vats used is 3

Explanation:

Number of pounds used per hour, D = 195 ÷ 8

= 24.375 pounds per hour

Cycle time, T = 2.25

Inefficiency factor, e = 0.19

Material held in vats, C = 25 pounds

Now,

Let, n be total number of vats

Thus,

n = \frac{DT(1+e)}{C}

on substituting the respective values, we get

n =\frac{25.75\times2.25\times(1+0.10)}{25}

or

n = 2.413 ≈ 3

Number of vats used is 3  [since vats cannot be in fraction]

olga55 [171]

Answer:

13,000 units

Explanation:

The excess of budgeted sales over budgeted production = 127,000 - 110,000 = 17,000 units. In other words, this is the number of units that the company will be in short of.

The company has 30,000 units in beginning inventory, thus the amount of ending finished goods inventory will be = 30,000 - 17,000 = 13,000 units

The AFN equation assumes that the ratios of assets and liabilities to sales remain constant over time. However, this assumption
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The answer is A True

Explanation:

AFN which is "additional funds needed" is a concept used commonly in business looking to expand operations and influence. Since a business that seeks to increase its sales level will require more assets to meet that stated goal, some provision must be made to accommodate the change in assets. AFN is a way of calculating how much of new funds will be needed, so that the firm can realistically look at whatever or not they will be able to generate the additional funds and therefore be able to achieve the higher sales level.

Economies of scale are cost advantage reaped by companies when production becomes efficient. Firms can achieve economies of scale by increasing production and lowering cost. This does not involve calculating of new funds needed for a realistic expansion of the firm.

Lumpy assets are assets that cannot be acquired in small increments but must be obtained in large, discrete units.

Excess Capacity indicates to a situation in which the demand for a company's goods and services is less than its production capacity. This situation can arise in any firm during  the low point in a seasonal industry, where capacity is maintained to match the peak part of the season.

A constant ration can not be meet in this condition of economies of scale, lumpy assets, and excess capacity as these conditions  can not be used in raising funds or additional funds that are needed by the industry in its expansion.
