Answer: b. Economies of Scope
Explanation:
Economies of Scope refers to a situation where a company is able to reduce the cost of producing two or more goods by combining their production thereby leading to savings in the production process.
Economies of Scope in effect points out that there are some goods that when produced in tandem with another, lead to a cost reduction which means that its savings is <em>based on variety</em>.
Goods that usually achieve Economies of Scope are goods that are compliments, produced by similar methods or use similar inputs for production.
Firm A merging with Firm B produced the 5 radios and batteries cheaper so the new company is experiencing Economies of Scope.
Answer:
The number of Gallon materials Howell company should buy is 166000 Gallons
Explanation:
Finished goods
opening inventory 11000
produced
closing inventory 13000
finished goods sold 42000
using the bottom up approach to get goods produced
sold goods + closing goods - opening goods = produced =44000 goods
Direct material ( Gallons)
opening materials 66000
purchased 166000
available for use 232000
used in production 176000
closing gallons 56000
We use the bottom up approach to get the materials to be purchased
closing stock plus used in production to get available for use then subtract opening material to get purchased = 166000
Answer:
Christiaan Huygens
Explanation:
Christiaan Huygens was a Dutch physicist with many credits and inventions some of which is the pendulum clock and production of many telescopes. He is also credited as the father of theoretical physics being the first to make use of formula in physics. His wave theory of light was controversially not widely regarded because of Isaac Newton's earlier theory on corpuscular theory of light.
He published his work on the wave theory of light in the book called Treatise on Light in 1690 which was then seen as the opposite of what Newton (who was already wildly famous) had proposed.
Answer:
The Break Even Point is the Sales Value that will cover the cost of production. Meaning the Sales Value that will bring profitability to Zero
Break Even sales for Company wide = $378,000
Break Even Value for Chicago is $111,429
And Break Even Value for Minneapolis is $120,000
The Addition of both Outlets/Offices Break Even Sales is less than the Company-wide because the Offices don't share in the Common Fixed Expense as these are specific to Group reporting.
