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:
Equilibrium price to be indeterminate from the information given, but equilibrium quantity to rise.
Explanation:
The recent rains resulted in an increase in demand for kayaks so the equillibrum quantity demanded will rise. Supply will also rise to meet the increased demand.
However we are unable to determine if the price will rise or fall with the given information.
Plastic is cheaper now so kayaks will also be cheaper. On the other hand increase in demand naturally causes an increase in price. So the cheaper price of kayaks will need to be compared with price increases as a result of increased demand to determine if equillibrum price will rise or fall.

Explanation:
Depreciable cost refers to the portion of an asset's costs that will be spread throughout the use-life of the asset. It is the amount to depreciated over the gainful life of the asset.
Depreciable cost is calculated by subtracting salvage value from the original cost of the asset. Salvage value is also the scrap value.
Depreciable cost = asset cost - salvage value
Depreciable cost= $120,000 - $20,000
Depreciable cost =$100,000
