Answer:

111 pounds

Explanation:

The number of pounds Cynthia should order each day can be calculated as follows

Calculation

Standard deviation = 20

Mean = 100

Cost of actual utilization = 8-3 = 5

Cost of Under utilization = 4-2 = 2

Probability of sale = Co/(Cu+Co)

Probability of sale = 5/(5+2)

Probability of sale =0.714

Z score at above probability = z = 0.57

hence cynthia should order= mean+z*standard deviation

Order = 100+0.57*20

Order = 111.4 or 111 pounds

NNADVOKAT [17]

To record estimated returns on Sales

Debit: Sales Refund Payable Account $131,400

Credit: Accounts Receivables $131,400

To record estimated Cost of Sales returns

Debit: Inventory Returns Estimated Account $77,700

Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisio
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Please check the info below

Explanation:

1. For Osaka

Margin =  Net Operating Income / Sales *100

= $ 792000 / $9900000 *100

= 8.00%

Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets * 100

= $ 9900000 / $ 2475000 * 100

= 4.00%

ROI =  Margin * Turnover

= 8% *4 %

= 32.00%

Hence the correct answer is 32.00%

For Yokohama :

Margin =  Net Operating Income / Sales *100

= $ 2900000 / $ 29000000*100

= 10.00%

Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets * 100

= $ 29000000 / $ 14500000* 100

= 2.00%

ROI =  Margin * Turnover

= 10% *2 %

= 20.00%

Hence the correct answer is 20.00%

2. The correct answer is  

Osaka = $ 371,250

Yokohama = $ 435,000

3. The correct answer is No

This is because since Osaka has a higher ROI, Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income is not an indication that it is better managed
