Yuma, Inc. manufactures teddy bears and dolls. Currently, Yuma makes 2,100 teddy bears each month. Each teddy bear uses $3.50 in

direct materials and $1.00 in direct labor. Yuma uses two activities in manufacturing the teddy bears: Sewing and Processing. The cost associated with Sewing is $15,750 a month, allocated on the basis of direct labor hours. The cost associated with Processing is $10,500 a month, allocated on the basis of batches. Teddy bears use 1/2 of the direct labor hours, and 35% of total batches. What is the total manufacturing cost for one teddy bear?

Answer:

$10.00

Explanation:

Calculation for the total manufacturing cost for one teddy bear

Total manufacturing cost=$3.50 + $1.00 + [($15,750 × 1/2)/2,100] + [($10,500 × 35%)/2,100]

Total manufacturing cost=$3.50 + $1.00 + ($7,875/2,100) + ($3,675/2,100)

Total manufacturing cost=$3.50 + $1.00 + $3.75+ $1.75

Total manufacturing cost=$10.00

Therefore the total manufacturing cost for one teddy bear will be $10.00

Maya, who lives in California, just purchased her first home at a Trustee’s foreclosure sale. She was given a deed at the sale.
nevsk [136]

Answer:  Trustee's Deed

                             

Explanation: A trust deed in immovable property in the Americas refers to a legal instrument used to develop a significant stake in the immovable property under which legal title in capital assets is diverted to a trustee holding that as security for such a loan between a creditor and perhaps a lender.

From the perspective of the investor, a document of trust has a vital benefit as compared to a mortgage. If a borrower fails to pay on the loan, on part of the lender, the trustee has the right to repossess the land. Thus, from the above we can conclude that Maya would have been given a trustee's deed.

You are considering a job that offers a pension of 80% of your highest yearly salary prior to retirement. You expect your highes
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

1,120,000 dollars

Explanation:

The pension income is 80% out of current salary of 70,000 dollars, therefore 56,000 dollars. For this to be future retirement stream savings must be at a level of 1,120,000 dollars or 56,000/0,05. This strategy would assume 5% return on savings or investments and the lifestyle in retirement equal to pre-retirement period. This strategy would also assume no additional post-retirement income.

REY [17]

Answer:

b. $2,500, $3,500

Explanation:

Amount collected in advance will be recognized as a liability until the revenue is earned. Entries are posted between the cash account and deferred revenue account on collection of cash.

Given that he company collected $6,000 in advance payments from customers for 12-month gym memberships on June 1, 2018.

Debit Cash account $6,000

Credit Unearned revenue $6,000

After 7 months ( between 1 June and 31 December 2018),

Revenue earned = 7/12 × $6,000 = $3,500

On December 31, 2018,

Debit Unearned revenue          $3,500

Credit Membership  Revenue   $3,500

Balance in unearned revenue accounts = $6,000 - $3,500 = $2,500

Balance in Membership revenue = $3,500

What was Thomas Malthus’s theory of population growth?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A population would grow faster than its ability to feed itself.

Explanation:

Thomas Malthus' theory, in my personal beliefs, is remarkably accurate and quite rational. He argued that if one were to have a country/population left unchecked, as in without any form of administration, government, or central authority to balance it, that a population would thus outgrow its resources and thus result in overpopulation and a lack of necessities... something that may, perhaps, lead to eventual extinction.

This is fairly factual when you think of the contemporary age. The earth was previously believed to have a carrying capacity of about 2-40 billion people, an argument that eventually centered on around 7 billion. Today, the earth's maximum carrying capacity is generally percieved to be about 9 billion people. In this age, we currently are nearing 8 billion.

This. Is. An. Issue.

A plethora of earth's resources that life itself depends on is LIMITED. Our freshwater reserves are limited. The amount of animals on this planet, a source of food, is <em>also </em>limited. The amount of plants on this planet, significant sources of energy, food, oxygen, and all sorts of natural processes that keep everything alive, are, unfortunately, limited.

This demands that humans figure a way to require less of these precious resources, fast. By the year of 2150, we'll likely have surpassed our carrying capacity.

For the issue of food, there are options. The primary issue is that humans are omnivores, as in, we love both plants AND animals... in our stomach's, of course. A prime example is myself! Personally, I couldn't live without beef, but I <em>definitely </em>couldn't or wouldn't want to survive without spinach and broccoli, because they are absolutely delicious.

However, despite humans being omnivores, we stubbornly refuse to eat our veggies. . . meaning a mass majority of us prefer to eat meat. We breed our animals to have offspring, giving us more meat. We generically enhance or even create our meat. We love meat.

The issue being that meat is a terrible source of energy. Remember, energy comes from sources of life itself, like the sun! PLANTS take the mass majority of this energy in, not animals. Animals EAT the plants, to where as much as 80% of that initial energy source is lost, disappearing into nothing, and meaning only roughly 20% is absorbed into the animal upon eating the said plant. Then, and only then, HUMANS come to eat the animal, in which 80% of that initial 20% is also lost between these stages.

As you can see, humans end up with barely any amount of this vital energy, simply because we love meat. We feed the plants to the animals to keep them healthy so WE can then eat the said animals, thus resulting in a HUGE loss of energy. We use our land for pastures. We give other resources (like water) to the animals, again, so we can eventually consume them.

The earth is going to run out of resources at one point or another, but our current consumption habits will likely hasten this process as far as freshwater and food.

Ofc, it shouldn't need to be said that if we were ALL to switch to primarily plant-only consumption, we'd probably be set. Getting rid of all our pastures and replacing them with massive farms would give is a surplus of plants, which are remarkably better sources of energy and will thus be able to sustain humans much, much longer. We won't have to worry as much about starving.

Then again, you must ALSO worry about the fragility of plants. They can easily be detroyed by natural disastors and are dependant upon environmental conditions such as weather temperature, climate, and soil. These factors are very limiting, but then you must additionally remember the amount of care they require, as well as they are extremely vunerable to mass destruction (like droughts, burning, flooding, etc., which can wipe out a LOT at once).

Obviously it's a give-or-take thing.

Malthus said it right, three hundred years ago.

I get the length of this post was probably uneccesary but you asked a very good question that gave me an excuse to cover something in-depth.

I am inevitable.

A mining company owns two mines, each of which produces three grades (high, medium, and low) of ore. The company has a contract
sashaice [31]

Answer:

They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.

Explanation:

The formulation of the linear programming is:

Objective function:

C=200M_1+160M_2

Restrictions:

- High-grade ore: 6M_1+2M_2\geq12

- Medium-grade ore: 2M_1+2M_2\geq8

- Low-grade ore: 4M_1+12M_2\geq24

- No negative hours: M_1,M_2\geq0

We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.

In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.

In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.

Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.

(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).

The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.

The cost function graph is attached.
