Answer: $85,000

Explanation:

Drawings are debited/deducted from the Equity account to reflect that the owner's holdings in the business has reduced.

Profit is added to the Equity account in the form of Retained Earnings.

The closing Balance on Equity is;

Closing Balance = Opening Balance + Profit - Drawings

Profit = Closing Balance - Opening Balance + Drawings

Profit = 175,000 - 120,000 + 30,000

Profit = $85,000

Answer:

(a)The implied cost of shortage per quart is = $4.75

(b) This could be viewed as reasonable figure, because is (approximately) equal to the loss per quart of strawberry.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Mean =μ = 40

Standard deviation =σ = 6

Excess cost= Ce =$0.35

The amount ordered =S₀= 49

Thus

Z =(49 -40)/6

=1.5

Now

From the Table Z, we have the service level which is,

P(X <49 ) = P(Z < 1.5)

= 0.9332

Since we know that,

Service level (SL) =Cs/Cs+Ce

So,

0,9332 =Cs/Cs+0.35

Thus

0.9332Cs + 0.35* 0.9332 =Cs

0.0668Cs =0.32662

Hence

Cs = $4.75

(a) The implied cost of shortage per quart is = $4.75

(b) Therefore,this could be regarded as reasonable figure, because is (approximately) equal to the loss per quart of strawberry.

Suppose an economic boom causes incomes to increase and, at the same time, drives up wages for the sales representatives who wor
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that smartphones are a normal good and income of the individuals increases because of economic boom. We know that there is a direct relationship between the income of an individual and demand for normal goods.

Increase in the income level of the individuals will result in higher demand for smartphones. This will shift the demand curve of smartphones rightwards.

Simultaneously, the wages of sales representatives who work for cell phone companies also increases. This will increase the cost of production for the firms and shifts the supply curve of smartphones leftwards.

Hence, the equilibrium price of smartphones increases but the effect on equilibrium quantity is indeterminate because its effect will be depend upon the magnitude of the shift of supply and demand curve.
