Answer:

The algebraic formulation of the constraint is 4X+2Y ≤ 100

Explanation:

The algebraic formulation of the constraint is shown below:

Given that

The number of hours taken per unit of x is 4 hours

And the number of hours taken per unit of x is 2 hours

And, the maximum hours available is 100

Now based on the above information

The algebraic formulation of the constraint is

= 4X+2Y ≤ 100

hence, the same is to be considered

There will be a lower equilibrium price and quantity if

denis23 [38]

Answer: demand decreases and supply stays the same

Explanation:

The equilibrium price refers to the price whereby the quantity of goods that's demanded and the quantity of goods that's supplied is equal.

On the other hand, the equilibrium quantity is gotten when the quantity of goods demanded and supplied are equal. This is gotten when the demand curve and the supply curve intersects.

It should be noted that there will be a lower equilibrium price and quantity if

In a situation whereby the demand increases and the supply remains the same, the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price will increase and vice versa.

At the beginning of the month, the Painting Department of Skye Manufacturing had 30,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to m

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit of material = $2.20 per unit

Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = $4 unit

Explanation:

The computation of Cost per equivalent unit of material, Cost per equivalent unit of conversion is shown below:-

For computing the cost per equivalent first we need to find the equivalent unit of material which is below:-

= Transferred units + ( Department units × Material percentage)

= 135,000 + (20,000 × 40%)

= 135,000 + 8,000

= 143,000

So, the Cost per equivalent unit of material = (Beginning material cost + Current month material cost) ÷ Equivalent unit of material

= ($32,400 + $282,240) ÷ 143,000

= $314,640 ÷ 143,000

= $2.20 per unit

Now, For computing the Cost per equivalent unit of conversion first we need to find the equivalent unit of conversion cost which is below:-

= Transferred units + ( Department units × Conversion percentage)

= 135,000 + (20,000 × 15%)

= 135,000 + 3,000

= 138,000

So, the Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = (Beginning conversion cost + Current month conversion cost) ÷ Equivalent unit of conversion cost

= ($6,250 + $544,700) ÷ 138,000

= $550,950 ÷ 138,000

= 3.99

or $4 unit

Pulaski Plumbing Supply is planning to bring a new type of valve to market and is conducting a break-even analysis. For this ana

vekshin1

Answer:

break-even point (BEP) = 25,000 items

Explanation:

given data

Selling price = $2.50

Fixed costs = $10,000

Variable cost = $2.10

solution

we know that Revenue is sum of Fixed costs and variable costs

so we use here contribution margin method that is

Contribution margin = $ 2.50 - $ 2.10

Contribution margin = $ 0.4

break-even point (BEP) for the valve is here

break-even point (BEP) = fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin ...................1

put here value

break-even point (BEP) = $\frac{10000}{0.4}$

break-even point (BEP) = 25,000 items
