Answer:
The manger did not make a mistake
To determine the effect that an increase in price would have on revenue, we have to determine the price elasticity of demand.
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price
Price elasticity of demand = percentage in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
4% / 5% = 0.8
The elasticity of demand is less than 1, this means that demand is inelastic
When demand is inelastic, if price is increased, the fall in quantity demanded would be less than the increase in price. As a result, if price is increased total revenue would fall.
Based on the manger's calculation, demand is inelastic, so she was not wrong in increasing price.
Explanation:
Answer:
a. Standard direct labor rate per hour = Hourly wage rate + Payroll taxes + Fringe benefits
Standard direct labor rate per hour = $16.70 + $0.60 + $1.40
Standard direct labor rate per hour = $18.70
b. Standard direct labor hours per gallon = Actual production time + Rest periods and cleanup + Setup and downtime
Standard direct labor hours per gallon = 1.60 hours + 0.30 hours + 0.20 hours
Standard direct labor hours per gallon = 2.1 hours
c. Standard labor cost per gallon = Standard direct hours per gallon * Standard direct labor rate per hour
Standard labor cost per gallon = 2.1 hours * $18.70
Standard labor cost per gallon = $39.27
Answer: Odd first interest payment
Explanation: The Interest paid on the first installment is a odd first Interest payment. Such scenario comes into play when a loan with a fixed installment payment date, which is 6 months in this case (January 1st and July 1st), begins on a date which does not allow the immediate use to f this regular payment schedule. Hence, the odd first Interst payment is adopted in other to enable the lender cove r the initial period before beung able to use the usual regular payment schedule. In this case the odd first Interest schedule is between June 1st to January 1st. After which regular payment schedule commences on July 1st.
