Answer:
The objective function is to minimize cost thru use of linear programming
Explanation:
A craftsman named William Barnes builds two kinds of birdhouses, one for wrens and a second for bluebirds. Each wren birdhouse takes 4 hours of labor and 4 units of lumber. Each bluebird house requires 2 hours of labor and 12 units of lumber. The craftsman has available 72 hours of labor and 120 units of lumber. Wren houses yield a profit of $ 10 each and bluebird houses yield a profit of $ 15 each. The aim of the objective function for William should be to ▼ Minimize Maximize the objective value.
The objective function is to minimize cost thru use of linear programming
Answer:
$7,326
Explanation:
Double Decline Balance = 2 x SLDP x SLDBV
where,
SLDP = Straight Line Depreciation Percentage
= 100 ÷ useful life
= 100 ÷ 20
= 5 %
and
SLDBV = Straight Line Percentage Book Value
Year 1
Double Decline Balance = 2 x 5% x $81,400
= $8,140
Year 2
Double Decline Balance = 2 x 5% x ($81,400 - $8,140)
= $7,326
Therefore
The machine's second-year depreciation using the double-declining balance method is $7,326.
Lena makes $45 profit.
Extra information:
The amount of profit Lena makes is 3/4th of the profit Joe makes, seeing as when Joe makes $4 profit, Lena makes $3 and $3 is 3/4th of $4. Therefore, when Joe makes a profit of $60, Lena makes a profit of (60 x 3/4) $45.
