A labor-intensive process to manufacture a product has a fixed cost of $338,000 and a variable cost of $143 per unit. An automat

ed process for the same product has a fixed cost of $1,244,000 and a variable cost of $92.50 per unit. How many units must be produced and sold at $197 each for the automated process to be the preferred over the labor-intensive process?

Answer:

no of unit is 17941

Explanation:

given data

fixed cost = $338,000

variable cost = $143 per unit

fixed cost = $1,244,000  

variable cost = $92.50 per unit

solution

we consider here no of unit is = n

so here total cost of labor will be sum of fix and variable cost i.e

total cost of labor = $33800 + $143 n  ..........1

and

total cost of capital intensive  = $1,244,000 + $92.5 n   ..........2

so here in both we prefer cost of capital if cost of capital intensive less than cost of labor

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n  <  $33800 + $143 n

solve we get

n > \frac{906000}{50.5}

n > 17941

and

cost of producing less than selling cost so here

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n < 197 n

solve it we get

n > \frac{1244000}{104.5}  

n > 11904

so in both we get greatest no is 17941

so no of unit is 17941

In the lab, a container of saturated soil had a mass of 113.27 g before it was placed in the oven and100.06 g after the soil had
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

  • Moisture/ water content w = 26%
  • Void ratio , e =  0.73

Explanation:

  • Initial mass of saturated soil w1 = mass of soil - weight of container

                                                 = 113.27 g - 49.31 g = 63.96 g

  • Final mass of soil after oven w2 = mass of soil - weight of container

                                                  = 100.06 g - 49.31 g = 50.75

Moisture /water content, w =   \frac{w1-w2}{w2} = \frac{63.96-50.75}{50.75} = 0.26 = 26%

Void ratio =  water content X specific gravity of solid

                  = 0.26 X 2.80 =0.728
