Answer:

Suppose the cost per hour incurred in operating a cruise ship is 3a + b v^{2}dollars per hour, where a and b are positive constants and v is the ship's speed in miles per hour. At what speed (in miles per hour) should the ship be operated between two ports, at a distance D miles apart, to minimize the cost? (Hint: Minimize the cost, not the cost per hour.)

<em>The speed at which the ship would maximize cost is </em>\sqrt[3]{\frac{3a}{2b} }

Explanation:

The problem can be solved using differentiation to get the minimum value of the speed to travel between the two ports. Step by step calculation is contained in the attached images;

River Falls Manufacturing uses a normal cost system and had the following data available for 2018: Direct materials purchased on
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The ending balance of work-in-process inventory is $64,000

Explanation:

Opening Raw Material = $34,000

Opening WIP Inventory = $70,000

Opening Finished Goods Inventory = $55,000

Raw material purchased = $148,000

Raw materials requisitioned = $88,000

Closing Raw Material = Opening + Purchase - Requisitioned

= $34,000 + $148,000 - $88,000 = $94,000

Closing Finished Goods Inventory = Opening + Cost of goods produced - Cost of goods sold

= $55,000 + $299,000 - $250,000 = $104,000

Expense total incurred on goods entered for production = Material requisitioned + Labor cost incurred + Factory overhead

= $88,000 + $127,000 + $148,000 = $363,000

Out of which cost of completed goods = $299,000

Thus remaining is work in process = $363,000 - $299,000 = $64,000

That is Closing WIP Inventory = $64,000

Note: It is obvious that the expense of labor and overheads incurred in this period includes expense incurred to convert opening WIP in to finished goods and the balance is closing WIP.

The ending balance of work-in-process inventory is $64,000
