Answer:

d. declines continually as output increases.

Explanation:

Fixed costs remain constant throughout a period regardless of output level. Average fixed costs are obtained by dividing fixed costs by the total output. Because fixed costs do not change, average fixed costs will be influenced mostly by the production level.

A large output means that fixed costs will be spread in many units. The result is a reduction in average fixed costs. When the output is large, a firm enjoys economies of scale. A small output will result in high fixed average costs. A Fixed amount will be shared among a fewer number of units.

Vaughn Manufacturing incurred the following costs for 84000 units: Variable costs $504000 Fixed costs 392000 Vaughn has received

Damm [24]

Answer:

$7.8

Explanation:

Variable costs = $504,000

Fixed costs = $392,000

Number of units produced = 84,000

Shipping charges = $4,500

Therefore, the variable cost per unit is calculated as follows:

= Variable costs ÷ Number of units produced

= $504,000 ÷ 84,000

= $6 per unit

Incremental fixed cost per unit (For 2,500):

= Shipping cost ÷ 2,500

= $4,500 ÷ 2,500

= $1.8 per unit

Therefore, the unit sales price will be the sum total of variable cost per unit and incremental fixed cost per unit for the shipping charges.

BEP (in sales price per unit):

= Variable cost per unit + incremental fixed cost per unit

= $6 + $1.8

= $7.8

The answer is "<u>The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to differences in scientific judgments."</u>

It isn't surprising that as the inquiry proceeds with, researchers at times differ about the bearing in which truth lies. Economists regularly differ for a similar reason. Economics is a youthful science, and there is still much to be educated. Economists here and there differ in light of the fact that they have distinctive hunches about the legitimacy of elective hypotheses or about the extent of critical parameters that measure how monetary factors are connected.

When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a) - r=5%: $S=$ 5,136.10$

- r=4%: $S=$ 4,885.61$

- r=3%: $S=$ 4,647.34$

b) - r=5%: t=14 years

- r=4%: t=17 years [/tex]

- r=3%: t=23 years [/tex]

c) The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.

Explanation:

The rate of accumulation of money is

$dS/dt=rS$

To calculate the amount of money accumulted in a period, we have to rearrange and integrate:

$\int dS/S=\int rdt=r \int dt\\\\ln(S)=C*r*t\\\\S=C*e^{rt}$

When t=0, S=S₀ (the initial capital).

$S=S_0=Ce^{r*0}=Ce^0=C\\\\C=S_0$

Now we have the equation for the capital in function of time:

$S=S_0e^{rt}$

a) For an initial capital of $4000 and for a period of five years, the amount of capital accumulated for this interest rates is:

- r=5%: $S=4000e^{0.05*5}=4000*e^{0.25}= 5,136.10$

- r=4%: $S=4000e^{0.04*5}=4000*e^{0.20}= 4,885.61$

- r=3%: $S=4000e^{0.03*5}=4000*e^{0.15}= 4,647.34$

b) We can express this as

$S=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2S_0=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2=e^{rt}\\\\ln(2)=rt\\\\t=ln(2)/r$

- r=5%: $t=ln(2)/0.05=14$

- r=4%: $t=ln(2)/0.04=17$

- r=3%: $t=ln(2)/0.03= 23$

c) When the interest is compuonded quarterly, the anual period is divided by 4. In 5 years, there are 4*5=20 periods of capitalization. The annual rate r=0.0525 to calculate the interest is also divided by 4:

$S = 4000 (1+(1/4)(0.0525))^{5*4}=4000(1.013125)^{20}\\\\S=4000*1.297958= 5,191.83$

If compuonded continously, we have:

$S=S_0e^{rt}=4000*e^{0.0525*5}=4000*1.3= 5,200.71$

The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.

Without prejudice to your solution to part (a), assume that you computed the June 30, 2020, inventory to be $60,480 at retail an

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The June 30, 2020, inventory at the June 30 price level under the dollar-value LIFO retail method:

$65,318.40

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

June 30, 2020 Inventory = $60,480 at retail

Ratio of cost to retail = 68%

Inventory at cost = $41,126.40 ($60,480 * 68%)

General price level increase from 100 to 108

Inventory at the June 30 price level under the dollar-value LIFO retail method:

Inventory at cost = $44,416.50 ($41,126.40 * 108/100)

Inventory at retail = $65,318.40 (44,416.50/68%)
