Suppose that there are 1 million federal workers at the lowest level of the federal bureaucracy and that above them there are mu

ltiple layers of supervisors and supervisors-of-supervisors. Assume that each higher level is one-tenth the size of the one below it because the government is using a 10:1 ratio of supervisees to supervisors. That is, for every 10 workers at the bottom, there is 1 supervisor; for every 10 of those supervisors, there is 1 supervisor-of-supervisors; for every one of those supervisors-of-supervisors, there is a supervisor-of-supervisors-of-supervisors; and so on, all the way up the bureaucratic pyramid to the president.
a.How many supervisors will there be in each supervisory layer of the federal bureaucracy? Start with the layer of supervisors directly above the 1 million workers at the bottom.b. How many supervisors are there in total at all levels of the federal bureaucratic pyramid, including the president?
c. If you count the 1 million workers at the bottom as the first layer of the federal bureaucracy, how many total layers are there, including the president?d. How many federal employees are there in total at all layers, including the president?e. What fraction of all federal employees are supervisory, including the president?

A) 100,000 layer 1 supervisors; 10,000 layer 2 supervisors; 1,000 layer 3 supervisors; 100 layer 4 supervisors; 10 layer 5 supervisors; and 1 President

B) Including the President there are 111,111 supervisors

D) Including the President, the total amount of federal employees is 1,111,111 people

E)Almost 10%, the actual number is 9.999991%

Explanation:

The federal bureaucratic pyramid would be like this:

Layer 6 supervisor:                                                   1 president

Layer 5 supervisors:                                               10 people

Layer 4 supervisors:                                             100 people

Layer 3 supervisors:                                          1,000 people

Layer 2 supervisors:                                       10,000 people

Layer 1 supervisors:                                      100,000 people

The base of the pyramid (only workers): 1,000,000 people

LO 7.3 Fit band's estimated sales are:

                                                                    $

OCTOBER                                         131,982

NOVEMBER                                         195,723

DECEMBER                                         249,283

JANUARY                                         124,298

FEBRUARY                                         124,284

MARCH                                                  124,373

What are the balances in accounts receivable for January, February, and March if 65% of sales is collected in the month of sale, 25% is collected the month after the sale, and 10% is second month after the sale?

Answer:

                                                           JANUARY   FEBRUARY   MARCH

Amount received from November sales    19,572

Amount received from December sales    62,321        24,928  

Amount received from January sales        80,794        31,075       12,430

Amount received from November sales  <u>               </u>     <u>              </u>      <u> 31,071 </u>

TOTAL                                                     <u>$162,687 </u>    <u>$56,003</u>     <u>$43,501 </u>

<u />

Explanation:

The balances calculated are based on the following formula:

Amount received = Sales Figure of that month * Percentage

65% in the month of sale is received, 25% in the next month and the residual is received in the second month after sales

For the month of November:

65% of its total sales will be received in november, 25% in the next month(December) and the residual 10% in the second month after sale(January). Likewise for the month of January, we see in the computation that 65% of sales was received in the same month, 25% in the next month February and the residual 10% in the second after sale which is in March.

Candy Cane Corporation (CCC) produces 100,000 boxes of candy bars per year which sell for $3 a box. If variable costs are $2 per
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A. shut down as fixed costs are not being covered.

Explanation:

Break-even point is a level at which the company has no profit no loss situation. Sales Excess from Break-even makes profit and short makes loss.

Sale Price = $3 per box

Variable Cost = $2 per box

Contribution margin = $3 - $1 = $1 per box

Fixed Cost = $125,000

Break-even point = $125,000 / $1 = 125,000 boxes

Sales  = 100,000 units

Short from Break-even = 125,000 - 100,000 = 25,000 boxes

Loss = $25,000 x $1 = $25,000

CCC should shut down because even fixed cost is not being covered it is short by $25,000. So this product is making loss.
