Answer:

The answer is: 14,400 different production sequences are possible

Explanation:

For this calculation I will assume that the first 5 operations can be made in any order, as well as the last 5.

For the first set of machining operations, since they can go in any order, you choose one operation and then you have 4 operations left, then you choose another operation and you have 3 operations left, then you choose another operation and you have 2 operations left, you choose another option and you have only 1 operation left.  This process can be expressed by the following equation: 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120 possible different combinations. Mathematically it can also be expressed as 5! = 120

The same for the last 5 assembly operations, you have 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120 possible different combinations.

So to get the total possible combinations of all the process, we just multiply 120 x 120 = 14,000 or 5! x 5! = 14,400

An entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today. The interest rate is 11.5%. If the entrepreneur makes annual payments of $70,000 per yea
love history [14]

Answer:

After 18.44 year loan will be paid

Explanation:

We have given an entrepreneur borrows $500,000 today.

So total amount is $500000

Annual payment is of $70000

Rate of interest r = 11.5 %

We have to find the time period

We know that total amount is given by

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n, here A is total amount , P is yearly paid amount, r is rate of interest and n is time period

So 500000=70000\times (1+\frac{11.25}{100})^n

7.142=1.1125^n

Taking log both side

log7.142=nlog1.1125

n\times 0.0463=0.8538

n = 18.44 year

So after 18.44 year loan will be paid

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Fixed costs that can be avoided by discontinuing the line.

Explanation:

Avoidable costs are those costs which can be eliminated by closing or rejecting a decision under evaluation. These costs are mostly variable coasts which vary with the change in activities. More activity more cost, less activity less cost and no activity no cost.

So fixed costs that can be avoidable by discontinuing the project is the only irrelevant cost between the given options.

natita [175]

Answer:

amount that should be reported for patent amortization expense for 2018 will be $90000.27

Explanation:

given data

purchased patent = $405,000

useful life = 10 years

spent = $99,000

remaining useful life = 5 years

solution

first we get here amortization from September 1, 2016 - January 1, 2018 that is

September 1 - december 31 = \frac{4}{12}  = 0.333333

amortization = (1 + 0.333333) × (405000 ÷ 10)

amortization = $53998.65

and

now we get remaining value before defence

remaining value = $405,000 - $53998.65

remaining value = $351001.35

and

now we get here amount to be reported for patent amortization expense for 2018

amount = ( $351001.35 + $99,000 ) ÷ 5

amount = $90000.27

so amount that should be reported for patent amortization expense for 2018 will be $90000.27
