You will need:

pens, paper, pencils, folders, notebooks, shoes and clothes for school

Your wants would be:

the air jordan shoes instead of the walmart brand.

A colorful 3d folder or notebook instead of the generic plain ones

a 5 dollar pen or pencil when you can get 12 for a dollar

Answer:

The plant would have to work 8.33 hours

Explanation:

Initial productivity:

100 parts were produced in 1 hour

Percentage increase in productivity = 20%

New productivity:

100 + (100 × 0.2) = 100 + 20 = 120

120 parts would be produced in 1 hour

Number of hours the plant would have to work to produce 1000 parts = 1000/120 = 8.33 hours

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Time Warner, Inc.

Turner Home Box Office Warner Bros. Total

Segment Revenues

(in millions) $21,700 $22,200 $80,600 $124,500

Variable costs 4,774 10,434 25,792 41,000

Contribution margin $16,926 $11,766 $54,808 $83,500

Contribution ratio 78% (100 - 22) 53% (100 -47) 68% (100 -32) 67%

b. Certainly, Turnover and Warner Bros. are more profitable businesses than Home Box Office in terms of total contribution margin (dollars) and contribution margin ratio.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Segment Revenues

(in millions)

Turner (cable networks and digital media) $21,700

Home Box Office (pay television) 22,200

Warner Bros. (films, television, and videos) 80,600

Assume that the variable costs as a percent of sales for each segment are as follows:

Turner 22%

Home Box Office 47%

Warner Bros. 32%

b) The contribution margin ratio for the three segments can easily be determined by subtracting the variable costs percentages from 100 for each segment instead of doing more computations (Contribution margin/Sales Revenue * 100). But the results are the same for either method.
