Answer:

27

Explanation:

The computation of the optimal stocking level for the bakery is shown below:

Given that

Cost = c = $7

Selling price =  p = $ 10

salvage value =  s = $ 5

Mean = 25

Standard deviation = \sigma= 8

Now based on the above information

underage cost = Cu  = p-c = $10 - $7 = $3

And,

overage cost = Co = c-s = $7 - $5 = $2

So,

\frac{P\leq C_{u}}{(C_{u}+C_{o})}\\\\\frac{P\leq3}{(3+2)}

= 0.6

Now use normsinv() function in excel

So,

The Z value for the probability 0.6 is 0.2533

Now finally

The optimal stocking level is

=\mu +z\sigma

= 25 + 0.2533 × 8

= 27.02

= 27

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: (B.) <u><em>If the maximum that a consumer is willing and able to pay is greater than the minimum price the producer is willing and able to accept for a good.</em></u>

Explanation:

A producer will only sell goods and services if the consumer is willing to pay as much as the asking price. i.e. The price that the producer is asking. For this to happen the consumer's willingness to pay must be greater than the minimum price.

Therefore , the trade will take place if <u><em>the maximum that a consumer is willing and able to pay is greater than the minimum price the producer is willing and able to accept for a good.</em></u>

Monty Company reports the following financial information before adjustments. Dr. Cr. Accounts Receivable $132,800 Allowance for
creativ13 [48]

Answer: The following journal entries apply:

a) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $32,727.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $32,727.6

b) Debit Bad debt expense                                    $37,017.6  

  Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts            $37,017.6

Explanation: All the sales revenue are on credit to the tune of $806,700, however, there was sales return and allowance of $51,060, which has to be deducted from credit sales to arrive at the net credit sales of $755,640. This amount would be added to the accounts receivable of $132,800 to arrive at the total accounts receivable of $888,440.

a) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6. With credit balance of $2,810 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (addition) is $32,727.6  ($35,537.6 - $2,810).

b) 4% of $888,440 is $35,537.6 and there is a debit balance of $1,480 in allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt expense (to reinstate allowance account to $35,537.6) is $37,017.6 ($35,537.6 + $1,480).

The government imposed a fine on the Not-So-Legal Company. The fine calls for a payment of $100,000 today, $150,000 one year fro
belka [17]

Answer:

The amount after 2 years will be $460590

Explanation:

The payment which is done 2 year from today = $200000

The payment which is done one year from today = $150000

Rate of interest = 3 %

So the amount after 1 year

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n=150000(1+\frac{3}{100})^1=$154500

The amount which is done today = $100000

So amount after 2 years

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n=100000(1+\frac{3}{100})^2=$106090

So total amount after 2 years = $106090+$154500+$200000 = $460590

Audreys free-throw percentage so far this season is .875. If she makes only 13 of her next 20 free throws, her percentage will d
otez555 [7]

Answer:

245 free throws

Explanation:

x will be number of times Audreys makes a shot, and let y be total number of the shots.

x/y = .875

(x+13)/(y+20) = .860

Let solve for x in equation 1

x = .875y

We will plug the for x in the equation 2

(.875y+13)/(y+20)

= .860

.875y + 13

= .860y + 17.2

.015y = 4.2

y = 280

Audreys has taken 280 shots.

We will Plug that back into the equation 1 in order to find out how many Audreys made.

x/280 = .875

x = 245

Hence :

Audreys made 245 free throws
