Answer: SEE EXPLANATION

A. 198.27 UNITS

B. 99.14 UNITS

C. 30.76 ORDERS

D. 8.12 DAYS

E. $1,784.43

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Annual order = 6,100

Carrying cost = $9 per unit per year

Ordering cost = $29

A) EOQ =sqrt[( 2 × Annual order × (ordering cost ÷ carrying cost)]

EOQ = sqrt[2 ×6100 × (29÷9)]

EOQ = sqrt(12200 × 3.22222222)

EOQ = 198.27 units

B.) AVERAGE INVENTORY :

EOQ ÷ 2

198.27 ÷ 2 = 99.14 UNITS

C.) Optimal number of orders per year:

Demand / order per year

6,100 ÷ 198.27 = 30.76 orders

D.) Optimal number of days between two orders:

Number of working days ÷ optimal number of orders

250 ÷ 30.76 = 8.12 days.

E.) Annual cost of ordering and holding inventory:

$198.27 × $9 = $1,784.43

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

a) consumer

$5

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer would be willing to pay for a product. The willingness to pay in this question is $30.

The price of the goods is $35 but Alice would pay ($35 - $10) = $25

The consumer surplus is $30 - $25 = $5

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the lowest price a supplier would be willing to sell his product.

I hope my answer helps you.

Paul [167]

Answer:

the answer for the first question is $166667.

the answer for the second question is $210526

the answer for the third question is An inverse.

Explanation:

given information that i will invest in a $10000 scholarship that will pay forever.

the interest rate charged is 6.00% per annum therefore this is a perpetuity present value problem where there is streams of income forever therefore we use the formula :

Pv of perpetuity= Cf/r

where Cr is the cash flows payed by the single investment forever in this case $10000 then r is the interest rate of the investment amount which is 6% in this case.

Pv of Perpetuity= $10000/6%

                           =$166667 therefore i must invest this amount to get the scholarship running with streams of $10000 forever.

in the second problem if now the interest rate is changed from 6% to 4.75% then the amount to be invested would be :

Pv of perpetuity = $10000/4.75%

                              =$210526 therefore this is the amount to be invested for a forever $10000 stream of incomes for a scholarship.

the relationship is indirect cause as the interest rate decreases the present value of the perpetuity that must be invested increases.

Stells [14]

Answer:

a. the discounted value of all future cash flows associated with the stock.

Stock prices can be seen as an estimated future value of the security. When investors buy shares they look at the performance of the business and buy shares based on this future analysis.

Also the issuer values the shares based on their future forecast of financial performance. For example when a share is issued for $1,000,000 the business would have estimated performance will justify the share price in the future.
