Answer:
A) a 23.5% decrease in materials
B) a 64% decrease in labor costs
C) a 29.1% decrease in overhead
Explanation:
White Tiger's multifactor productivity = $300 / $148 = 2.027
if we want to increase the multifactor productivity by 12%, it will = 2.27
since we will not change the sales price, we must determine the new total cost:
$300 / cost = 2.27
cost = $300 / 2.27 = $132.16 ≈ $132, which represents a $16 decrease
A) materials ⇒ $16/$68 = 23.5%
B) labor costs ⇒ $16/$25 = 64%
C) overhead ⇒ $16/$55 = 29.1%
Answer: a) It captures the full price that customers might be willing to pay for a product.
Explanation:
The cost-plus pricing method involves using the total cost to come up with a selling price by simply adding a markup that the company would like as profit to the total cost of the product per unit and then selling it at that price.
It is easy to justify to stakeholders, simplifies pricing processes and is quite easy to measure or estimate.
It however does not capture how much a customer may be willing to pay for for a good as it is based on the company's expenses and preferred profit.
Answer:
b. $31,000
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight-line method for the second year is shown below:
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)
= ($127,000- $3,000) ÷ (4 years)
= ($124,000) ÷ (4 years)
= $31,000
Hence, the correct option is b. $31,000
The units are to be ignored as the method i.e used is straight line so the same is to be considered
Answer:
C) Doug tells his employees that he needs to know everything that is going on in the department, especially if someone is NOT buying into the project goals.
Explanation:
A servant leader is a leader that believes his/her main goal is to serve the organization. Servant leaders usually value employees' contributions and generally looks for them.
If Doug wants to know who is not buying into the project goals, he is not valuing employees' contributions, he is trying to impose his own views and ideas.
