. A one-product firm estimates that its daily total cost function (in suitable units) is C (x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 13x + 15 and its t
givi [52]

Answer:

Value of x maximising profit : x = 5

Explanation:

Cost : C(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 13x + 15 ; Revenue: R(x) = 28x

Profit : Revenue - Cost = R(x) - C(x)

28x - [x^3 - 6x^2 + 13x + 15]  = 28x - x^3 + 6x^2 - 13x - 15

= - x^3 +  6x^2 + 15x - 15

To find value of 'x' that maximises total profit , we differentiate total profit function with respect to x & find that x value.

dTP/dx = - 3x^2 + 12x + 15 = 0 ► 3x^2 - 12x - 15 = 0

3x^2 + 3x - 15x - 15 = 0  ► 3x (x +1) - 15 (x + 1) = 0 ► (x+1) (3x-15) = 0

x + 1 = 0 ∴ x = -1   [Rejected, production quantity cant be negative] ;

3x - 15 = 0 ∴ 3x = 15 ∴ x = 15/3 = 5

Double derivate : d^2TP/dx^2 = - 6x + 12

d^2TP/dx^2  i.e - 6x + 12  at x = 5 is -6(5) + 12 = - 30+ 12 = -8 which is negative. So profit function is maximum at x = 5

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Total Cost of Job X4A:                                             $

Direct material cost  ($9,000 x 500 units)              4,500,000                              

Direct labour cost (300 hrs x $15 x 500 units )       2,250,000

Overhead applied (100 hrs x $22.50 x 500 units)  1,125,000

Total cost                                                                    7,875,000

Explanation:

The total cost of Job X4A is the aggregate of direct material cost, direct labour cost and overhead applied. Overhead is absorbed on the basis of machine hours. Thus, we will multiply the overhead rate by machine hours and number of units produced.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The IRR is 10%.

Explanation:

a) Calculation of Internal Rate of Return (IRR):

We choose a discount rate, say 10% and use it to discount the cash flows to their present values.  If the net present value (NPV) of all the cash flows equals zero, then that discount rate is accepted as the IRR.

b) Without 10% discount rate, the discount factors are for:

1st year = 1.1 (1 + discount rate) raised to power 1

2nd year = 1.21 (1 + discount rate) raised to power 2

3rd year = 1.331 (1 + discount rate) raised to power 3

c) These discount factors will divide the cash inflows for each year:

1st year, NPV = $15,364/1.1 = $13,967.27

2nd year, NPV = $15,364/1.21 = $12,697.52

3rd year, NPV = $15,364/1.331 = $11,543.20

Total NPV of inflows                 = $38,209 approximately

NPV of outflows                         -$38,209

NPV of inflows and outflows      $0

So, the IRR is 10%.

IRR is a capital budgeting metric to measure profitability by using a discount rate which makes the net present value of all cash flows to become zero.  To get a suitable rate, trial and error is involved, or one can make use of educated best guess.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Find the detailed answer below

Explanation:

January 1     300 units at $5      $1,500

January 8     500 units at $9       $4,500

January 29 910 units at $10       $9,100

1,110 units are available at the end of the month. That means 600 units were sold

A. Under FIFO

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

        $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.   Cost of goods sold

         300 units at $5      $1,500

         300 units at $9      $2,700

          Total             $4,200

3. Ending inventory

           200 units at $9       $1,800

           910 units at $10      $9,100

           Total              $10,900

B. Under LIFO(Last in First Out)

1.  Cost of goods available for sale:

        $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.  Cost of goods sold

        600 units at $10      $6,000

        Total       $6,000

3. Ending inventory

       310 units at $10      $3,100

      500 units at $9        $4,500

      300 units at $5        $1,500

      Total        $9,100

C. Weighted average cost flow assumption: Cost of goods available for sale / total units

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

     $1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2. Cost of goods sold

      $15,100 / 1,710 = $8.83

      $8.83 x 600 = $5,298

3. Ending inventory

       $8.83 x 1,110 = $9,801.3

Under perpetual Inventory System

Between January 9 and January 28. The prevailing price that will be used to sell the inventory will be the price at January 8($9)

1. Cost of goods available for sale:

$1,500 + $4,500 + $9,100 = $15,100

2.  Cost of goods sold

        600 units at $9     $5,400

        Total           $5,400

3. Ending inventory

       1,110 units at $9      $9,990

      Total            $9,990
