Sharon is opening a new pizza restaurant that will use a combination of workers and ovens to produce pizzas. Sharon knows from e

xperience that the total number of pizzas she can produce in an hour is given by the function q=4K0.5L0.5 , where q is the number of pizzas per hour, K is the number of ovens, and L is the number of workers. Suppose another pizza restaurant in the same town can produce 19 pizzas per hour. Being an extremely competitive person, Sharon wants to produce 20 pizzas per hour. Therefore, his total hourly cost function is given by ____

Answer:

Q+X = [4K^1/2L^1/2] + X

Explanation:

L = labour = workers

K = capital = ovens

You don't have the exact value of Q since the values of K and L are not given.

You should however note that Q is less than or equal to 19 pizzas/hour, since Sharon sought to stretch his capacity by producing up to 20 pizzas/hour owing to the presence of a competitor.

Assuming the distance/difference between 20 and Q is X (a positive number).

Sharon's new hourly cost function will be:

Q+X = [4K^1/2L^1/2] + X

Q+X = 20 and the law of mathematics states that whatever you add to the left hand side must be added to the right hand side, hence the addition of X to both sides of the equation instead of the left hand side alone.

The function can now be rewritten as 20 = [4K^1/2L^1/2] + X

where X = 20 - Q

The ACME company manufactured x brooms per month from January to April, inclusive. On the first of each month, during the follow
Papessa [141]

Solution:

Pick some smart number for x,

let x=2 (I chose x=2 as in this case monthly shipments would be X/2=1).

From January to April, inclusive 4x=8 brooms were produced and

in May the company paid for storage of 8-1 =7 brooms,

in next month for storage of 6 and so on.

So the total storage cost would be:

= 1 ∗ (7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0)

= 28

--> as x=2 , then 28 = 14x

So the answer is 14x

If a stock with a beta of 1.4 is expected to return 18% when Treasury bills yield 6%, what is the expected return on the market
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

14.57%

Explanation:

A stock has a beta of 1.4

The expected return is 18%

The risk free rate is 6%

Therefore, the expected return on the market portfolio can be calculated as follows

18%= 6% + 1.4(market return-6%)

18%= 6% + 1.4market return - 8.4

18%= 6-8.4 + 1.4market return

18%= -2.4% + 1.4market return

18%+2.4%= 1.4market return

20.4= 1.4market return

market return= 20.4/1.4

= 14.57%

Hence the expected return on the market portfolio is 14.57%

Kirkaid Company recorded the following transactions for the just completed month:
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is $5,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Total raw material = $118,000

Direct material = $89,000

So, Indirect material = Total raw material - Direct material = $118,000 - $89,000

= $29,000

Total labor = $142,000

Direct labor = $122,000

So, Indirect labor = Total labor - Direct labor = $142,000 - $122,000

= $20,000

Additional actual manufacturing OH = $214,000

Applied manufacturing OH = $268,000

So, we can calculate the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the month by using following formula:

Underapplied or overapplied overhead = Applied manufacturing OH - Actual OH

= $268,000 - ( $29,000 + $20,000 + $214,000)

= $268,000 - $263,000

= $5,000

Hence, the overapplied overhead is $5,000.
