I think the answer is <span>unit-elastic over this price range. This happens when a company earns the same revenue even with some slight changes on the prices. It means that slight increase or even decrease in price does not affect the revenue of the company.</span>
Answer:
a) $3
b) $2
c) 1449
Explanation:
Given:
The cost for a carton of milk = $3
Selling price for a carton of milk = $5
Salvage value = $0 [since When the milk expires, it is thrown out ]3
Mean of historical monthly demand = 1,500
Standard deviation = 200
Now,
a) cost of overstocking = Cost for a carton of milk - Salvage value
= $3 - $0
= $3
cost of under-stocking = Selling price - cost for a carton of milk
= $5 - $3
= $2
b) critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 0.4
c) optimal quantity of milk cartons = Mean + ( z × standard deviation )
here, z is the z-score for the critical ration of 0.4
we know
z-score(0.4) = -0.253
thus,
optimal quantity of milk cartons = 1,500 + ( -0.253 × 200 )
= 1500 - 50.6
= 1449.4 ≈ 1449 units
The decrease is a simple 2 dollars that is easy to find out. The demand is decreasing, as is the price to keep the demand atleast a bit steady. The decrease is a 12.5% of the total cash recieved.
Answer:
Dr Interest Receivable $240
Cr Interest Income $240
Explanation:
The reason is that the Techcom company is lender and must account the lending as a loan.
The loan will be paid with the interest at the end of the period. The interest received at the end of December 31 would be the single month loan at the $4800 at the interest rate which is 10 percent here.
The Interest Income = $4800 * (10% interest rate * 2/12) = $240
The interes would be recorded for the two months which is $240 and accounted for as under:
Dr Interest Receivable $240
Cr Interest Income $240
And at the end of January 31, Teller will make the payment which would be accounted for as under:
Dr Cash $5260
Cr Interest Revenue $120
Cr Notes Receivable $4800
Cr Interest Receivable $240
