A company finds that there is a linear relationship between the amount of money that it spends on advertising and the number of

units it sells. If it spends no money on advertising it sells 100 units. For each additional $2500 spent, an additional 25 units are sold. If x is the amount of money that the company spends on advertising, find a formula for y, the number of units sold as a function of x. (do not use commas in your formula)

Answer:

y = (x / 100) + 100

Explanation:

First, we need to know the amount of money that it spends on advertising for each extra unit sold. That would be equal to: 2,500 / 25 = 100

This value will be the divisor of the advertising expense (x) to obtain the variable factor of the number of units.

Since 100 units are already sold without investment, this value is taken as fixed and added.

And with the previous data, the formula remains:

y = (x / 100) + 100

Answer:

Explanation:

Competitive advantages are those factor that put a manufacturer in a better position over rivals in the market and gives her the benefit of higher pricing and brand loyalty.

In this scenario , the competitive advantage that Heartsong has in the industry is her world wide reputation as a provider of choice for high-quality leading -edge artificial heart valves.

However, she has fund limitation to enhance research and development , larger production and maintain additional inventory as demanded by the market . The sales on account pattern as vendors are not paid immediately and short lead time for ordering due to the nature of the heart valve was not helping the situation.

The outsourcing arrangement to Edfex will ease the stress on delivery as it has hightech warehouses in most major population centers around the country. The focus will now be on research and development and increased production capacity.

The Flapjack Corporation had 8,200 actual direct labor hours at an actual rate of $12.40 per hour. Original
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Actual direct labor hours = 8,200

Actual rate = $12.40 per hour

Original  production = 1,100 units

Actual units produced = 1,000

Labor  standards = 7.6 hours per completed unit

standard rate = $13.00 per hour

Labor time variance:

= (Standard hours - Actual hours) × Standard rate

= (1,000 × 7.6 - 8,200) × $13

= 7,800 Unfavorable
