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

vredina [299]

To complete the measurement process, companies need to update balances of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses for changes created by adjusting entries.

<h3 /><h3>What is adjusting entry?</h3>

An adjusting entry is the entry that is posted after the posting of all the journal entries for a period, all the transactions are posted and then at the end of the period the adjusting entry is recorded.

The adjusting entry balances and effects the balance of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenditure at the end of the period.

Adjusting entry is also posted when the reversing effect of the journal entry is to be posted and this results in the change of the account balances of assets and liabilities of the company.

Household behavior with respect to changes in income can be described by the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) and the margin
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: Greater the MPC

Explanation:

The Marginal Propensity to consume refers to how much Economic consumption increases or decreases due to a change in income.

The formula for MPC is;

= Change in Consumption/Change in Income.

Consumption is a major component of GDP so it has a direct influence on Economic output. In other words, the larger the level of consumption, the higher the higher the output.

As evident from the equation, if the change in consumption is higher than the change in income, the MPC will be larger. A larger MPC therefore corresponds to a higher Consumption.

If a higher Consumption leads to a larger output and a larger MPC corresponds to a higher Consumption then that means that a higher MPC leads to a larger output.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer: $1000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a customer's restricted margin account shows the following: LMV $30,000 DB $16,000 SMA $0 If the customer sells $2,000 of securities.

Based on the above analysis, the customer can only withdraw $1000. This is because since $2000 worth of securities are sold, half of it which is $1000 will be credited to SMA which is the withdrawable amount.
