Digiron [165]

Answer:

$760

Explanation:

The computation of the relevant cost is shown below:

= Discounted price per kilogram × number of kilograms - delivery cost  

= $6.75 × 120 kilograms - $50

cricket20 [7]

Answer: the correct answer is a. Machine B

Explanation:

Machine A average rate return

40000 out of 300000. It means that 300000 is 100% and $ 40000 is X. We apply a simple three rule:

40000       X                     X= 4000000/300000

300000     100%               X= 13.33%

Machine B average rate return

50000 out of 250000. It means that 250000 is 100% and $ 50000 is X. We apply a simple three rule:

50000       X                     X= 5000000/250000

250000     100%               X= 20%

Machine C average rate return

$75,000 out of $500,000. It means that $500,000 is 1005 and $75,000 is X. We apply a simple three rule

$75,000     X                       X=7500000/500000

$500,000  100%                 X= 15%

The highest average is the one onf Machine B

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a company as a framework to measure risk against, it can properly assess risk in different periods of time, depending of the risk score obtained within the framework.

This helps regulators because they can access an accurate primary information from the company itself (later on, they should probably compare that information against their own standards in order to prevent bias), and it also helps the company because it can see where it stands in terms of risk, which reduces uncertainty.
