Answer:

1. What is the contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts?

<em>Homerun = </em> $ 50

<em>Goalpost</em> =  $30

2. What is the optimal mix of team shirts?

Homerun =  50,890

Goalpost  = 3,822

3. What is the total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix?

Total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix = $311,780

Explanation:

<em>1. Contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts</em>

<em><u>Homerun</u></em>

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $5 / (6/60)

                                                                     =  $ 50

<em><u>Goalpost</u></em>

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $15 / (30/60)

                                                                     =  $30

<em>2. Optimal mix of team shirts</em>

Determine if <em>machine time</em> is a limiting factor

<u>Demanded Hours</u>

Homerun 0.1 × 50,890  = 5,089

Goalpost 0.5 × 50,890  = 25445

Total Hours Demanded = 30,534

<u>Available Hours</u>

Available hours =1,000 hour × 7 machines

                          =7,000 hours

Demanded Hours > Available hours

Therefore  <em>machine time</em> is a limiting factor

Determine Mix

<em>Rank the T-Shirts based on contribution margin per hour of machine time</em>

Position 1. Homerun = 5,089

Position 2. Goalpost  = 1,911 (takes the remaining hours)

Number of T-Shirts (mix)

Homerun = 5,089 / 0.1 =  50,890

Goalpost  = 1,911 / 0.5 =  3,822

<em>3. The total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix</em>

Homerun =  50,890 × $5 =254,450

Goalpost  =  3,822 × $15 = 57,330

Total                                 = 311,780

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

a) Is Santhosh required to increase his withholding or make estimated tax payments this year to avoid the underpayment penalty?

  • No he is not required to make any payments or increase his withholdings because this year's withholdings already represent a 133% increase with respect to last year's tax liability. If the withholdings for the current are over 100% last year's tax liability, then the taxpayer doesn't need to make any further adjustments in order to avoid underpayment penalties.

b) By how much, if any, must Santhosh increase his withholding and/or estimated tax payments for the year to avoid underpayment penalties?

lidiya [134]

Answer:

APR is 330% and EAR is 1745.53%

Explanation:

Given:

Monthly interest rate = 27.5%

APR or annual percentage rate = 27.5×12 = 330%

So, Big Dom should report an APR of 330% to customers.

EAR or effective annual rate = (1+\frac{APR}{m}) ^{m}-1

Here,

APR is 330% and m is 12

330÷12 = 27.5%

substituting the value in the above formula:

EAR = 1.275^{12}-1

        = 17.4553 or 1745.53%
