Answer:

There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.

Explanation:

Variable cost is a cost that varies with number of units produced or sold so it is always a relevant cost while making decision.

Fixed cost remains constant irrespective of number of units so it is a irrelevant cost unless avoidable.So in the given case ,fixed cost $70 is irrelevant since same will be incurred whether purchased or manufactured.

Incremental savings  

Saving in variable cost   220

saving in fixed cost   25

Total saving                   245

less: Incremental cost (270)

Incremental profit /(loss) on buying from outside supplier (25)

Total loss 25*5900= -147500

Therefore, There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

6.36 %

Explanation:

Unemployment means the state of being jobless but actively searching for work.  Unemployed people are part of the labor force.

In the case of Albireo, the work-eligible population is 180 million.

There are 110 million workers in the labor force, and employment level is 103 million. It means that those in the labor force and are not employed are 110 million - 103 million.

The number of unemployed people  = 7 million

The formula for calculating the rate of unemployment

= No. of unemployed people / No. in the labor force x 100

=7 million / 110 million x 100

=7/110 x 100

= 0.063 x 100

=6.36 %

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

C. health maintenance organizations

Explanation:

These organisations are able to provide this care by paying doctors affiliated to them, and  other healthcare providers who deliver care to the patients
