Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": control the direction.

Explanation:

When companies need to correct plans that were implemented in the past that eventually did not work, the entities should control the direction of their strategies by coming up with a new plan after analyzing the results of the failed attempt. In such situations, corrective action must be taken over the irregularities (deviations) and future plans must be improved.

Windsor, Inc. reports the following for the month of June.
Vladimir [108]

Answer: Please refer to the explanation section

Explanation:

1 June Inventory Balance = 556 x $6 = $3336

12 June Purchase = 1112 x $7 = $7784

23 Purchase = 834 x $11 = $9174

1.Cost of Ending inventory (First in First Out Method)

First in First out method implies that inventory purchased first will be sold first., with this in mind, We Can conclude ending inventory units  of 278 come from the inventory purchased on the 23rd of June.

Ending inventory units = 278 x $11 = $3058

Cost of good sold

Cost of goods sold = $3336 + $7784 + $6116*

Cost of goods sold = $17236

* (834 - 278 x $11)= 556 x $11 = $6116

Cost of Ending inventory Last In First Out

Last In First Out method implies that most recently purchased inventory will be sold first therefore We can conclude that the ending inventory units come from opening inventory units

Ending Inventory = 278 x $6 = $1668

Cost of goods sold =   $9174 + $7784  + $1668*

Cost of goods sold = $18626

*(556 - 278) x $6 = 278 x $6 = $1668

2 FIFO Method gives a higher a higher ending inventory Balance ($3058)  than LIFO Method ($1668). Ending inventory unit cost under FIFO Method is $11 while the ending inventory unit cost under LIFO Method is $6

3.  LIFO Method Provides Higher Cost of goods sold ($18626) than FIFO Method ($17236). LIFO Method includes the entire units of inventory purchased on the 23 June costing $11 per unit while Cost of goods sold under FIFO Method has only 556 units from the units purchase on the 23rd of June costing $11 per unit

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

2.77

the bus company should  decrease price to increase revenues.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.

percentage change in price = 1.21 / 0.99 - 1 = 0.222 = 22%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 169 / 433 = -0.6097 = - 60.97%

Elasticity of demand = 60.97% /  22% = 2.77

Demand is elastic, so if price in reduced, there would be a rise in quantity demanded that would exceed the rise in price. This would increase revenues

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The theory of constraints focuses on establishing the most important limiting factor or constraint in a business and improve it in order to improve the whole company's performance.

In simple terms, a company recognizes their greatest weakness and tries to improve it, so that it no longer represents a limitation.

This theory was originally developed for manufacturing companies, and it was meant to reduce bottlenecks (manufacturing constraints). Therefore one of its main goals is to lower inventory levels and operating costs while increasing production output.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

c. $150.

the extra amount of hours Maurice can work taking a flight will be of 5 hours

(8 hours taking a plane against 3 hours if driving)

As the income per hour is 30 dollar it can generate;

5 hours x $30 per hour = $150

Maurice will only travel by plane if it generates the same or more income than the driving thus, a differencial price of less than 150 dollars will provide Maurice with a net gain. Also we should consider that if Maurice drives his car it is taking a depreication hit per mile while driving that is being ignoer to keep the assignment simple. But considering that the amount of differential income could be higher than $150
