Answer: 36% increase in quantity demanded.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula;

= \frac{New price - Old Price}{\frac{New Price + Old Price }{2} } \\\\= \frac{4,000 - 6,000}{\frac{4,000 + 6,000 }{2} } \\\\= \frac{-2,000}{5,000} \\\\= -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

= 0.36

= 36% increase

Show the total cost expression and calculate the EOQ for an item with holding cost rate 18%, unit cost $8.00, annual demand of 4
torisob [31]

Answer:

Total cost = Total ordering cost + Total holding cost

Total cost = DCo     + QH

                     Q              2

Where

D = Annual demand

Co = Ordering cost per order

Q = EOQ

H = Holding cost per item per annum

D = 40,000 units

Co = $48

H = 18% x $8.00 = $1.44

EOQ = √2DCo

                H

EOQ = √2 x 40,000 x $48

                     $1.44

EOQ = 1,633 units

Explanation:

EOQ equals 2 multiplied by annual demand and ordering cost divided by holding cost per item per annum. The holding cost per item per annum is calculated as holding cost rate multiplied by unit cost.

melomori [17]

Answer:

it takes 15 years 10 months to  reach your goal.

Explanation:

The Fixed deposits are in the form of an ordinary annuity.

The Future Value of this Ordinary Annuity must be $207,819.47 ($250,000 - $42,180.53)

Thus find number of years that the fixed deposits would amount to $207,819.47.

Using a Financial Calculator enter the following data to calculate the period, N.

PMT = $5,000

P/yr = 1

r = 12 %

FV = $207,819.47

N = ?

Thus the number of years, N it takes to  to reach your goal is 15.7921 or 15 years 10 months.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculation for the activity variance for supplies cost in March

Using this formula

Activity variance = (Actual units - Budgeted units) * Variable cost

Where,

Actual units=856

Budgeted units=861

Variable cost=$6

Let plug in the formula

Activity variance=(856-861) * $6

Activity variance=5*$6

Activity variance=$30 Favorable

Therefore the activity variance for supplies cost in March would be closest to: $30 Favorable
