Answer:

A)  cost of direct labor =1.10+0.55+0.92 = $2.57

b. Labor content = 6 min+ 3 min+5 min= 14 min

c. idle time at resource 3 = (6+3)-5 = 4 mins

d.Average labor utilization = labor content / (labor content plus idle time)

                                            = 14/ (14+7) =14/21 =0.66666667*100= 67%

e. takt time = available time / demand

                   = 60 min / 20 = 3 min

f. Target man power = total labor content / Takt time

                                  = 14 /3

                                  = 4.67 = 5 manpower

Explanation:

direct labor per unit

Resource 1 = 6/60 =0.1 hrs*11= $1.10

Resource 2 = 3/60 = 0.05 *11 = $0.55

Resource 3 = 5/60 = 0.08*11 = $0.92

total idle time ; resource 1 = 3 + 4= 7

Suppose the government applies a specific tax to a good where the demand elasticity, E, is -1.4, and the supply elasticity, n, i
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The demand elasticity is -1.4.

The supply elasticity is 1.2.

Since the demand is elastic, the imposition of tax will not be profitable for the government.

The imposition of tax will increase the price of the good, this will decrease the demand for good, thus the revenue will decrease.  

The tax incidence on consumers

= E (supply) / (E (demand)) + E (supply)  

= \frac{1.2}{1.2 - 1.4}

= \frac{1.2}{-0.2}

= -6

Kaylis [27]

Answer: Economic choices result in trade-offs.

Explanation:

The chart simply purports to show that when making economic decisions, you will have to accept trade-offs because resources are not infinite.

For instance, in order to expand, you will need to take on more financial risk. In that same vein, in order to serve more people, you will have to divide time between two stalls and might end up closing a stall.

Trade-offs simply have to be made.

torisob [31]

Answer:

There is a loss of 18,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of boot in this transaction.

We proceed as follows;

We must identify that to buy one asset, we exchanged one asset with another

Mathematically;

loss or gain = asset given up - Discount received in exchange

From the question we identify the following;

value of asset given up = 225,000 - 195,000 = 30,000

Discount received in exchange = 12,000

Thus, loss or gain is

= 30,000 - 12,000

So, there's a loss of 18,000
