Answer:

Right option is C.

Explanation:

The operation manager will put the inventory in front of the process C. So, the right option is C.

As we have given the outputs of these processes:

Process A = 25 units/hr

Process B = 30 units/hr

Process C = 20 units/hr      Lowest output among all processes.

As, we can see that the process C has the lowest output of all which is 20 units per hour. It clearly means that operation manager will utilize the low output of process C and put the inventory infront of process C in order to increase the output of the overall process.

         Cash                                 81,500 credit

--to record payment of fees to credit car--

Explanation:

We will recognize the sales revenue for the sales when they occur.

If was on cash we use cash else, account receivable

Then, we will decrease our inventory by the cost of the goods sold and declare this expense.

Finally, the fees will be considered an expense relatesd to the use of credit card.

RuthAnn is 28 years old and is retiring at the age of 65. When she retires, she estimates that she will need an annual income of
inessss [21]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

From her current age of 28 to her retirement age of 65, RuthAnn has (65 - 28 =) 37 more years to work.

If she saves 11% of her annual income of $36,278.13 into a 401(k), she will be setting aside (11% * 36,278.13 =) $3,990.59 into the 401(k) account annually.

At 7.1% compounding rate, in 37 years, RuthAnn would have set aside an amount estimated by the future value of an annuity formula.

FV = \frac{A(1+r)^{n} - 1}{r}

where FV is the future value, the amount that would have been set aside,

A = is the annual savings,

r = is the compounding rate, and

n = is the number of years.

Therefore, the total amount that would be saved up after 37 years =

FV = \frac{3,990.59(1+0.071)^{37} - 1}{0.071}

= (3,990.59 * 11.6535)/0.071

= $654,990.31.

By spending $32,523 annually from an account earning 7.1% compound interest rate for 30 years, the present value of the total amount needed by RuthAnn today that will be sufficient for her retirement spending can be estimated using the present value of an annuity formula.

PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}

= PV = \frac{32,523(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}

= (32523 * 0.8723)/0.071

= $399,574.83.

Since the amount saved up ($654,990.31) is more than the total amount required for RuthAnn's retirement ($399,574.83), RuthAnn has more than sufficient to meet her Retirement goal.

Specifically, the amount she has saved up can support a maximum annual spending which can be estimated from the present value of an annuity formula.

PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}

where PV = the amount saved up, $654,990.31,

A = the annual spending which we are estimating,

r = the 7.1% compound interest rate,

n = the number of years to retirement.

654,990.31 = \frac{A(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}

= 654,990.31 = (A * 0.8723)/0.071

= A = 654,990.31/0.8723 * 0.071

= A = 53,312.29

Thus, the amount saved up can support a maximum retirement spending of $53,312.29, which is higher than the $32,523 annual income needed by RuthAnn for her retirement.
