Answer:

The maximum profit is $72,800 with 80 cabinets of Mission-style and no cabinets of Rustic-style to be used

Explanation:

Let the furniture cabinet maker produce x Mission-style cabinets and y Rustic-style cabinets

Objective function: Maximize profits

Profit yielded by a Mission-style cabinet = $910

Profit yielded by x Mission-style cabinets = $910 * (x)

Profit yielded by a Rustic-style cabinet = $1200

Profit yielded by y Rustic-style cabinet = $1200 * (y)

Objective function: Max (910x + 1200y)

Subjected to Constraints

Labor Hours: No of hours required to produce a Mission-style cabinet =15

No of hours required to produce a Rustic-style cabinet =20

Total Labor Hours = 1200

Constraint 1) 15*(x) + 20*(y) = 1200

Budget = $30,000

Cost of materials for a Mission-style cabinet =$340

Cost of materials for a Rustic-style cabinet =$430

Constraint 2) 340*(x) + 430*(y) <= 30000

Constraint 3) x and y >= 0

Put these constraints in Excel solver, we obtain the maximum profit as $72,800 with 80 cabinets of Mission-style and no cabinets of Rustic-style to be used

Elise is the marketing manager in a travel company. She is planning to place an advertisement in local newspapers to promote her

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The answer is C. link the advertisements to online promotions.

Explanation:

Now lets take a look at it one by one and see why C is the answer.

As in option A, she can ask a few friends whether they've seen the ad or not, but their replies would not accurately show the success of the promotion strategy.

In Option B, it take some time to measure the results and the quarterly sales numbers can be influenced by many factors and may not reflect the impact of this specific promotional campaign.

Option D is irrelevant, Elise's company sales and the sales of the newspapers are not related. So we can not take this as an answer.

Option C however is very applicable. If you link the advertisements to online promotions, when those who read the news paper comes to check the online promotion, we can see how well has the ad performed based on the number of online enrollments of the readers.

Which of the following is NOT a useful strategy when making an informed purchase

Levart [38]

Answer:

Based on the options you have mentioned under the "comments" section, I'd choose option A. Its not useful to let social media influence you and do the deciding for you!

Explanation:

Looking at the price, comparing the cost and quality of various similar products, reading and analyzing the product reviews are all great ways to be informed and educated before spending your hard earned cash on something.

However, getting influenced through social media or through any media and letting the fancy words, graphics and quotes in marketing campaigns cloud your rational judgement is not very wise (its actually Stupid!) of course they influence you in some way, yet you must always decide rationally through logical reasoning.

Do I really need this? Are there any other products with the same quality at a lower price? Why is this so expensive? How long will it last? are some of the other basic questions you should answer before making a purchase. In the process of fining answers to such questions, you'll eventually make an informed purchase!

Leisure Heating & Cooling installs and services commercial heating and cooling systems. Leisure uses job costing to calculat

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Overhead is allocated to each job based on the number of direct labor hours spent on that job.

At the beginning of the current year:

The estimated overhead= $66,750.

Estimated direct labor hours= 4,450

In November, Leisure started and completed the following two jobs:

Job 101

Direct materials used= $16,000

Direct labor hours used=195

Job 102

Direct materials used= $ 10,500

Direct labor hours used= 72

Leisure paid a $30 per hour wage rate.

A) predetermined overhead rate= total estimated manufacturing overhead/ total amount of allocation base

predetermined overhead rate= 66,750/4450= $15 hour

B) Job 101:

Manufacturing overhead allocated= direct labor hours*predetermined overhead rate

Manufacturing overhead allocated= 195*15= $2925

Job 102:

Manufacturing overhead allocated= 72*15= $1080

C) Job 101:

Total cost= direct materials + direct labor + manufacturing overhead

Total cost= 16000 + 195*30 + 2925= $24,775

Job 102:

Total cost= 10500 + 72*30 + 1080= $13740
