A manufacturer has modeled its yearly production function P (the monetary value of its entire production in millions of dollars)

as a Cobb-Douglas function P(L, K) = 1.47L0.65K0.35 where L is the number of labor hours (in thousands) and K is the invested capital (in millions of dollars). Find P(120, 30) and interpret it. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) P(120, 30) = , so when the manufacturer invests $ million in capital and thousand hours of labor are completed yearly, the monetary value of the production is about $ million.

Answer: P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million.

Explanation:

The Cobb-Douglas production function expresses the technological relationship between two inputs (labour and capital).

Since  

P(L,K)=1.47L^0.65 K^0.35 (equation 1)

we simply substitute L=120,000 and K=30,000,000 into equation 1.  

Thus, P(120,30)= 1.47(120,000)^0.65 (30,000,000)^0.35

<em>(Recall that L is in thousand of hours and K is in millions of dollars).</em>

P(120, 30)= 1.47(2002.02)(413.99)

Thus, P(120,30)= 1218365.475

P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

P(120, 30)= $1.2 million

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million

g rporation's budgeted sales for February are $334,000. Webster pays sales representatives a commission of 6% of sales dollars.
UNO [17]

Answer:

$28,240

Explanation:

Total sales = $334,000

Variable cost:

Sales commissions = $334,000 × 6%

                                = $20,040

Total fixed costs = Sales manager's salary + Advertising expenses

                            = $5,300 + $2,900

                            = $8,200

Total selling expenses = Total variable cost + Total fixed cost

                                      = $20,040 + $8,200

                                      = $28,240

Therefore, the total selling expenses to be reported on the selling expense budget for the month of February is $28,240.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The answer is: 3) Printed media

Explanation:

This is already happening, cell phones and tablets have already replaced digital cameras, Netflix is replacing cable TV and sooner than later cell phones and tablets will replace printed media completely.

Ask yourself, when was the last time you bought a newspaper? I haven´t bought a newspaper in years but I can also guarantee that I read more news outlets today that ever before. I can read the New York Times, The Washington Post, Sports Illustrated, etc. all on my cellphone. Using my phone is cheaper and faster (and also more ecological) than buying a printed version. In a few years probably no newspaper will have a printed edition, not even magazines will be printed anymore.
