Answer and Explanation:
By publishing the "List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor" the American government is able to raise awareness among the population that, although child labor is something inconceivable in American society, it still happens with great intensity in various places around the world. This allows the population to become aware of this situation and to stop buying products produced by companies that finance and allow child labor to happen. When they stop using these products, companies suffer a decrease in demand, which can cause significant changes in the production and in the lives of children who need to work.
While consumer pressure at companies that allow child labor is effective, pressure from political and commercial authorities is more effective in bringing about change and ensuring the protection of children, as these authorities can promote severe punishments for those who allow this to happen.
Answer:
The algebraic formulation of the constraint is 4X+2Y ≤ 100
Explanation:
The algebraic formulation of the constraint is shown below:
Given that
The number of hours taken per unit of x is 4 hours
And the number of hours taken per unit of x is 2 hours
And, the maximum hours available is 100
Now based on the above information
The algebraic formulation of the constraint is
= 4X+2Y ≤ 100
hence, the same is to be considered
Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct Option: A.supply whatever amount consumers demand at a price determined by the minimum point on the typical firm's average total cost curve.
In the long run, equilibrium price of a perfectly competitive firm implies that there is no economic profit for the firm. This situation occur when the marginal cost is equal to the average total cost.
The firm is break even when the price is equal to the minimum point of average total cost of the firm. So, there is no possibility of economic profit for the firm.
Answer: $30,000
Explanation:
Company estimates that 60% of boxtops will be redeemed.
They sold 500,000 boxes
= 500,000 * 60%
= 300,000 boxtops will be sent in.
So far, 220,000 have been sent in. How many left;
= 300,000 - 220,000
= 80,000 boxtops are still to be sent in
4 boxtops are needed to receive a pottery bowl so with 80,000;
= 80,000/4
= 20,000 pottery bowls are due to be issued.
Each bowl costs $2.50 to make. Customers will send in $1 however so effectively it will cost the company;
= 2.50 - 1
= $1.50
With 20,000 still left to be issued, each costing $1.50, the total liabilitiy for outstanding premiums to be recorded at the end of 2007 is;
= 20,000 * 1.5
= $30,000
Answer:
1. $590
2. $9.83
Explanation:
1.
Total Number of Direct Labor Hours:
= Total Labor Cost ÷ Labor Rate Per Hour
= 150 ÷ 15
= 10 Hours
Total Overheads:
= Total Number of Direct Labor Hours*Predetermined Overhead Rate
= 10 × 21
= 210
Total Manufacturing Cost = 230 + 150 + 210
= $590
2.
Average Cost:
= Total Manufacturing Cost ÷ Number of Units
= 590 ÷ 60
= $9.83
