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

Natalka [10]

Variable cost refers to the costs of production that fluctuate depending on the number of units​ produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The cost of any product that changes based on the quantity of goods that are produced. The volume that is produced decides the fluctuations in the variable cost. Fixed cost is the cost that will not change based on the number of units of the goods that is produced. Rent of a building can be considered as a fixed cost.

Example for variable cost may be raw materials cost, packaging cost,etc. Variable cost can be calculated by adding up the cost of labor and raw materials that are used in the production of one unit of a good. The total variable cost can be calculated by multiplying   variable cost per unit with the number of units produced.

What is necessary for someone to even get the oppurtunity to accumulate 10,000 hours of practice at something?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

<em>10 hours per week in 20 years, 20 hours per week in 10 years or 40 hours per week in 5 years.</em>

Explanation:

According to the author Malcolm Gladwel, with his book “Outliers. The success story ”, says that to achieve excellence, you must have an accumulation of 10,000 hours of practice, this means 10 hours per week in 20 years, 20 hours per week in 10 years or 40 hours per week in 5 years.

The author analyzes the importance of culture, family, friends, ancestors and other determining factors in the success of his projects.

Gladwell cites Mozart's example, recognized as a great genius. A composer began at age 7 and it is true that we know that some good pieces were written at the time of his adolescence. But the great symphonies were written after the age of 21, when he had already accumulated more than 10,000 hours of practice, in compositions and interpretations.

From this idea of ​​10,000 hours of practice, a level of knowledge acquired is possible based on a scale of magnitude of 10 hours, in an approximate way:

With 1 hour: We can know the basics.

With 10 hours: We have a broader notion of the basics.

With 100 hours: A medium level is acquired.

With 1,000 hours: It advances to be a specialist.

With 10,000 hours: One can master complications in that skill.

When cities prevent landlords from charging market rents, which of the following are common long-run outcomes? Check all that ap
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. The quality of rental housing units falls

c. The quantity of available rental housing units falls.

Explanation:

As the landlord cannot receive a desired return for their investment they will stop improving and doing proper maintenance of the property to obtain it.

They will also be less likely to rent and would prefer to sale and move away from the real-state investment business in the region to more profitable region or better business. This will make the ernt go up as there is less offer as well so the policy backfires.

Stoping the market to work property will cause market failures and the outcome won't be the desired
