Answer:
the fixed cost is $1.72 million
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed cost is shown below:
= Total cost - variable cost
= $3.4 million - ($4.6 million - $3.4 million) ÷ $3.4 million - $.1.2 million ÷ $2 million
= $3.4 million - 2.8 million × $0.60 million
= $1.72 million
Hence, the fixed cost is $1.72 million
Answer:
c. $33.33 per housekeeping hour
Explanation:
The housekeeping department's activity rate is how much each housekeeping hour costs.
This question can be solved by a simple rule of three.
27000 hours cost $900000. How much does 1 hour cost?
27,000 hours - $900,000.
1 hour - $x.
So the correct answer is:
c. $33.33 per housekeeping hour
Answer: False
Explanation:
The price elasticity of supply measures the change in quantity supplied when the price changes.
The basic trend is that when price increases, quantity supplied increases as well. The reverse is true.
Price elasticity of supply = %Change in quantity supplied / % change in price
0.5 = -6% / Change in price
0.5 * Change in price = -6%
Change in price = -6% / 0.5
= -12%
The statement above is therefore false because price should have reduced by 12% for quantity supplied to reduce by 6%
