An apparel manufacturing plant has estimated the variable cost to be $3.30 per unit. Fixed costs are $1,800,000 per year. Forty

percent of its business is with one preferred customer and the customer is charged at cost. The remaining 60% of the business is with several different customers who are charged $35 per unit. If 150,000 total units are sold in a year, compute the unit cost per item.

Answer:

$15.30

Explanation:

Given that,

Fixed costs = $1,800,000 per year

Variable cost = $3.30 per unit

40% of its business is with one preferred customer.

Total units sold in a year = 150,000

Unit cost per item:

= (Fixed cost ÷ Total units sold) + Variable cost per unit

= ($1,800,000 ÷ 150,000) + $3.30

= $12 + $3.30

= $15.30

Therefore, the unit cost per item is $15.30.

Answer:

The company should order 100 units to minimize total inventory cost.

Explanation:

Given,

Annual Demand, D = 2,000 units

Order cost, S = $20

Purchase cost = $40

Holding cost, H = Purchase cost x percentage of holding cost

Holding cost = $40 × 20%

Holding cost = $8

We know, the company should order the highest number of products with a minimum cost, and for that, the company uses economic order quantity. Hence,

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = \sqrt\frac{2*D*S}{H} }

EOQ = \sqrt \frac{2*2,000*20}{8}

EOQ = \sqrt{10,000}

EOQ = 100

slava [35]

Answer:

This is really a personal opinion, since whether it is correct to send people to mars or not depends largely on your point of view and personal beliefs. Clearly, humans are far more capable than robots, and they can explore space and eventually other planets much better than a rover. On the other hand, sending people to Mars is not only extremely expensive, but it is also extremely dangerous for the astronauts themselves.

Imagine so many people died trying to get to space and then to the moon, and that was very easy compared to getting to Mars and back.

We can find millions of better ways to use the money than sending people to space, and that is really hard to argue against. Our planet, our country, state or even city could all benefit and use the money more productively.

But lets say that we do not care about the money because Mr. Bezos or some other billionaire decided to donate it. Now we would face the technical issues of going to Mars and actually staying there for a long time. A trip to mars is not something that would be carried out for just a couple of hours (like moon walking). Astronauts will have to stay in Mars for weeks, months or even years before they can return. This results in an extreme danger to their health due to cosmic rays. Can humans survive long term exposure to cosmic rays? The answer is NO and Mars's atmosphere doesn't help.

If we analyze this situation from a technical point of view, it would be better and safer to send astronauts to Titan (Saturn's moon), and would probably be also more useful. Titan's environment is similar to Earth's in many ways, and if we are actually doing it for a scientific purpose besides simply being curious, then it is much more useful to go to Titan. The scientific purpose of going to mars instead of other possible destinations is not very solid. Mars is really different to Earth and unless someone finds Martians living there, there is not much you can do.

Even as it begins to produce the Mirai for the U.S. market, Toyota continues to manufacture its traditionally fueled cars, truck
Contact [7]

Answer:

Volatility

Explanation:

Volatility of industrial demand is the uncertainty in demand for product or parts by consumers. Companies need to adequately prepare for these changes in demand by the consumer so as to adequately provide the inventory or product to the customer.

In the given scenario Toyota is manufacturing product for all demands in the market place so as to capture all market shares.

They are producing both traditionally furled cars and the Mirai (a car that uses electricity). By this move they are appealing to both demand for normal fuel cars and those that want to use alternative energy sources
