Answer:

The exchange rate should be approximately <u>0.340364</u> dollars per peso.

Explanation:

Spot rate = 1 Argentina Peso = $0.3600

Inflation in Argentina = 10 %

U.S. inflation = 4 %

Hence Expected rate =

1Peso (1.10) = $0.3600(1.04)  

Hence

1 Peso = $0.3600(1.04) / 1.10

1 Peso = 0.340364

never [62]

<u>Given:</u>

Annual demand = 410 units

Ordering cost = $41

Holding cost = $5 unit per year

<u>To find:</u>

Number of units to be ordered each time an order is placed

On calculating the number of units,

\Rightarrow \sqrt{(\frac{2(390)(38)}{5})} \rightarrow\sqrt{\frac{780\times38}{5}}= 76.99

Therefore, to minimize the total cost, approximately 77 units should be ordered each time an order is placed.

The demand for plumbers is the same in country A and country B, but the plumbers in country A earn less than the plumbers in cou
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:The supply of plumbers in country A is greater than the supply of plumbers in country B.

Explanation:

The state of demand and supply of labour has a great effect on wages of workers. If the supply of plumbers is grater than the number s of households demanding plumbering services the wages for the plumbers will fall because more plumbers are available for the few works available and this is the situation why plumbers in country A earn less than B though the demand in both countries are the same but they do not vary in the same proportion with their demands.

The supply of plumbers in B is not greater than A and this why B earn more. Productivity refers to measuring the level of outputs in relation to the inputs such labour, capital in production and this does not have impact on wages compare to demand and supply of labour but it's impact is on production.

irinina [24]

Answer:

Equivalent units

Materials    = 12,700 units

Conversion cost =  11,940 units

Explanation:

<em>Equivalent Units E.U) are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion costs between between work in progress and completed work.</em>

<em>Equivalent Units = Degree of completion (%) × units</em>

<em>We will use the weighted average method</em>

<em>Weighted average method</em>

<em>The weighted average method of valuation of work in progress does not separate opening work-in progress from the newly introduced.</em>

<em>Using the weighted average method</em>

<em />

<em>Equivalent unit for material cost</em>

Since direct materials are added at the the beginning of the production process the equivalent unit of direct material

EU = (100% × 10,800) + (100% ×1900) = 12700

<em>Note that 100% represent the degree of completion.</em>

<em />

Equivalent unit for conversion cost

<em>Item                                                   Equivalent unit</em>

Transferred out         100%× 10,800 = 10,800

Closing inventory     60%  ×1900 =     <u>  1140</u>

Total equivalent unit =                         <u>11,940</u>
