Answer: The answer is<u> 24 years.</u>

<u />

Explanation: For this exercise we can use the rule of 72, this rule is by which investors can estimate how many years it will take for an initial investment to double. If you know the rate of return, you can know the time needed and if you know the time, you can calculate approximately the rate of return.

RULE OF 72 = APY% x NUMBER OF YEARS = 72

If we apply the formula it results =

3 × n = 72

n = \frac{72}{3}

<u>n = 24.</u>

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For account receivable turnover ratio

Accounts Receivable Turnover is

= Sales ÷ Average Receivables

Beginning Accounts Receivable  $21,400

Add: Sales                                 $105,300

Less: Cash Receipts                $81,300

Ending Accounts Receivable   $45,400

Now

Accounts Receivable Turnover is

= $105,300 ÷ ($21,400 + $45,400) ÷ 2

= 3.15 times

Now days to sell is  

= 365 ÷ 3.15 times

=116 days

A firm's average cost increases as it increases its output by expanding its plant and hiring additional workers (its only inputs
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": incorrect because all inputs are varied in the example.

Explanation:

The law of Diminishing Marginal Productivity states that increasing one variable will keep the others the same. My initially increase output but eventually adding more of that one variable may lead to a diminishing rate of return. The law helps explain why increasing production is not always the best way to increase profits.

The law of Diminishing Marginal Productivity only applies when certain inputs are fixed, but in this example, the amount of labor available varies since it is increasing.

Your supermarket is trying to determine how many meatloaf dinners should be produced on Monday. The Monday demand for meatloaf d
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The recommended production quantity is that which maximizes profit.

<em>Quantity 130</em>

<em />

Explanation:

Quantity to produce is the problem here. Remember that this is one of the fundamental questions in the discipline of Economics.

- What to produce?     - For whom to produce?

- How to produce?      - In what quantity?

Possible Production Quantities:

100,  110,  120, and 130

Mean Demand = 100

Standard Deviation = 20

Lowest possible demand = 100 - 20 = 80units

Highest possible demand = 100 + 20 = 120units

<u>* Solve, using the mean demand for each quantity level. Assume also that on every Monday, the minimum possible quantity is what is purchased. That's the safest assumption anyway.</u>

<u />

FOR QUANTITY 100,

Revenue = 7×100 = $700      Direct cost = 2×100 = $200

Indirect cost = 0.6×20 = $12          Total cost = 200 + 12 = $212

PROFIT = 700 - 212 = $488

FOR QUANTITY 110,

Revenue = 7×110 = $770        Direct cost = 2×110 = $220

Indirect cost = 0.6×30 = $18           Total cost = 220 + 18 = $238

PROFIT = 770 - 238 = $532

FOR QUANTITY 120,

Revenue = 7×120 = $840        Direct cost = 2×120 = $240

Indirect cost = 0.6×40 = $24           Total cost = $264

PROFIT = 840 - 264 = $576

FOR QUANTITY 130,

Revenue = 7×130 = $910          Direct cost = 2×130 = $260

Indirect cost = 0.6×50 = $30            Total cost = $290

PROFIT = 910 - 290 = $620

<em>Remember, the base assumption is that only the minimum quantity of 80units is bought each Monday. This is the only way to account for wastage; which costs 0.6 dollar per unit. So, the more the quantity produced, the greater the likelihood of wastage.</em>
