Answer:

a.

Average cost per meal = Variable cost per meal + Fixed cost allocated to one meal sold = $4 + Total fixed cost/ Number of meals sold per day = $4 + 1,200/750 = $5.60.

b.

Price per one meal as per the leader of the Scout = 150/30 = $5

As the selling price is $0.60 lower than the average cost per meal ($5-$5.60), the owner has come up with the loss of $0.60 per meal served under the Scout leader's suggestion.

However, his calculation is not reasonable, because among the $5.60 cost per meal, there is a factor of allocated fixed cost equals to $1.6 per meal which will incurred regardless of the suggestion being accepted or not.

Given his restaurant does not run at full capacity, his profit per one meal from accepting the offer should be calculated as Price per one meal as per Scout leader offer - Variable cost per one meal = $5 - $4 = $1.

The trial balance would disagree. It seems that the cash should be credited instead as the situation seems to me that the cash is being expended to pay for the equipment, and the remaining 3500 is liabilities. Therefore, the error should be corrected.

What is one of the three functions of the central vision area of a driver?
ruslelena [56]
Although the focus vision is the one responsible for the targeting function, it is the central vision that allows the viewing of the line of sight to the target area. It is the central vision that allows a relative focus for mid distances and blurring of what's around. It is important on a motorway, for example, as what's ahead is the most important once there isn't people or very busy areas around.

Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:

Block on the table m(A) = m1,

block on the cord m2,

the coefficient of static friction is k1=0.4,

the coefficient of kinetic friction is k2 =0.28

(a)

Block A:

T = F(fr) = k1 •N = k(s) • m1 •g,

Block B: T = m2•g.

k1 • m1 •g= m2•g,

m1 = m2/k(s) = m2/0.4.

(b)

Block A:

T = F(fr) = k2 •N = k2 • m1 •g,

Block B:

T = m2•g.

k2• m1 •g= m2•g,

m1 = m2/k2 = m2/0.28.
