Answer:
400; 800
Explanation:
Contribution:
Product X:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= 100 - 70
= 30,
Product Y:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= 80 - 40
= 40,
Product Z:
= Selling price - Variable cost
= 25 - 20
= 5
Machine hours required :
Product X:
= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand
= 3 × 300
= 900,
Product Y:
= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand
= 2 × 200
= 400,
Product Z:
= Machine time per unit × Monthly demand
= 1 × 500
= 500
Contribution per machine hour:
Product X = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit
= 30 ÷ 3
= 10,
Product Y = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit
= 40 ÷ 2
= 20,
Product Z = Contribution ÷ Machine time per unit
= 5 ÷ 1
= 5
It is highest for Y, so produce maximum amount of Y, then X and then Z
Y needs 400 hrs, we are left with 800 hours, so produce 800 hours of X.
Answer:
demand of
Fall
decrease
Explanation:
Here are the options to this question:
1.expect the (supply of/ demand of )
2.forecasters to (increase/ decrease)
3. weather forecasters to (decrease/ increase)
The new technology would reduce the need for weather forecasters. So t.v. stations and radios would no longer employ weather forecasters and might even lay off some forecasters. So the demand for forecasters would fall.
Due to the reduced demand for forecasters, there would be a large number of unemployed forecasters with no one willing to employ them. This would lead them to a reduction in their salary. When supply exceeds demand, prices fall.

Answer: 3.22
Explanation:
Given that;
mean = 2.5 min
standard deviation = 0.25 min
now to get the value of X required, we say
z = (x - u) / a
where z is the distance from the mean measured in the standard deviation units, x is the value we are interested in, u is the mean distribution, a is the standard deviation of the distribution.
the time delay should be just enough to allow 99.8% of the cabinets to dry completely = 99.8/100 = 0.9980
first we determine an appropriate z value.
Using the standardized normal tables,
value of z for approximately 0.9980 is 2.88
so using our initial equation z = (x - u) / a
we substitute the value
z = (x - u) / a
2.88 = ( x - 2.5) / 0.25
2.88 * 0.25 = x - 2.5
0.72 = x - 2.5
x = 0.72 + 2.5
x = 3.22
